MCP BP Dial

ISO, CE Mark, WHO GMP

   – The dial runs from 0 mmHg up to about 300 mmHg.

   – You shouldn’t need numbers much past 200, as even systolic pressures over 180 constitute an emergency.

    – When you look at the dial, make sure it is at the zero base line before starting.

    –  If it isn’t, you need to calibrate it using a mercury manometer.

    – Connect it with a Y connector, and once you move the dial over, check the pressure at several readings on both meters to make sure the aneroid manometer matches the mercury manometer.
