The reservoirs will incorporate a set-based free flow protection component (i.e. Flow Stop) that is designed to occlude the tube if the reservoirs are accidentally placed onto the pump incorrectly or become detached from the pump. || The Flow Stop will be located on the reservoir housing, which is attached to the pump. The reservoir will be provided to the user in an open state. Before the reservoir can be attached to the pump, the blue "CLIP" must be removed to activate the Flow Stop. || However, after attaching the reservoir to the pump, the user can still remove the || reservoir from the pump and prime it by holding the Flow Stop in the open position.
