Infusion pump specifications detail performance, safety, and functionality, including flow rate (e.g., 1-1000 ml/h), accuracy (e.g., ±3-5%), delivery modes (ml/h, drop/min, body weight), KVO (Keep Vein Open) settings, alarm types (occlusion, air-in-line), power (AC/DC/battery life), syringe compatibility (5-60ml), and safety features like occlusion pressure levels and keypads, all critical for precise medication delivery.
