1.1. Product Description

Dual Pump System.
The FMS DUO+ provides irrigation and suction
in one unit. Both roller pumps are computer-
controlled and automatically manage fluid. The
integrated suction pump automatically controls
both shaver and cannula suction, reducing labor-
intensive manipulations. By controlling both inflow
and outflow, the FMS DUO+ accurately regulates
pressure and flow.
Blue pedal (cannula suction).
To increase flow without increasing joint pressure,
step on the blue foot pedal. The suction pump will
accelerate and the irrigation pump will immediately
increase inflow to compensate for the increased
fluid loss. This feature is particularly useful when
eliminating debris.
Red pedal (lavage mode).
One of the most critical aspects of arthroscopy
is visualization, which is often obstructed by
blood and debris. To alleviate this problem the
FMS DUO+ has a lavage mode. By stepping on
the lavage pedal you will activate a timed cycle
of increased flow and pressure which controls
bleeding and clears the field of view. Once the
cycle is complete, the FMS DUO+ will return to its
original settings.
Integrated shaver system.
The FMS DUO+ is also an integrated shaver
®
console. The FMS Tornado
high-speed titanium shaver handpiece. When
the shaver rotates, the FMS DUO+ automatically
activates suction through the shaver and clamps
off other suction ports.
