Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for detecting excessive air in a liquid flow-through tube. The apparatus includes an ultrasonic transmitter for transmitting ultrasonic signals and an ultrasonic receiver for receiving ultrasonic signals. The ultrasonic transmitter and ultrasonic receiver are separated by the IV tube. The apparatus further provides circuit means for generating at least two transmitting signals to actuate the ultrasonic transmitter and circuit means for detecting received signals. Means are provided for determining whether the received signal is indicative of air or liquid in the IV tube. The apparatus further relies on logarithmic detection of air in fluids rather than linear detection which provides a larger safety factor in prediction of air embolus.

Abstract: The present invention provides a drive signal for a peristaltic pump motor. A first circuit is provided which generates a first series of pulses at a given frequency. A second circuit is provided which generates a second series of pulses having a frequency higher than the frequency of the first series of pulses. A third circuit is provided which generates a third series of pulses having a frequency between the frequency of the first and second series of pulses. Finally, a circuit is provided which combines the three series of pulses into a drive signal. The drive signal length is determined by the frequency of the first series of pulses. The drive signal further is divided into two sections, an initial pulse stage determined by the frequency of the third series of pulses, and a modulated pulse stage being a series of pulses determined by the frequency of the second series of pulses.
