Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of determining a system compressibility value of a medical membrane pump drive, wherein a first and second pressure level are moved to and a first and second operating parameter value of the membrane pump drive are detected; wherein the system compressibility value is determined on the basis of the detected operating parameter values; and wherein the membrane of the membrane pump drive is supported at a rigid surface during the determination of the system compressibility value.

A method of determining a system compressibility value of a medical membrane pump drive, wherein a first and a second pressure level are moved to and a first and second operating parameter value of the membrane pump drive is detected, with the system compressibility value being determined on the basis of the detected operating parameter values, characterized in that
- the membrane of the membrane pump drive is supported at a rigid surface during the determination of the system compressibility value.
A method of determining an air proportion and/or an air quantity in a medical fluid conveyed by a membrane pump, for which purpose a first and a second pressure level are moved to by a corresponding control of a membrane pump drive of the membrane pump and associated operating parameter values of the membrane pump are detected, with the air proportion and/or the air quantity being determined on the basis of the operating parameter values.
