The Rossmax Peak Flow Meter measures Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR), an indicator of lung function that shows the maximum airflow reached during a fast exhalation. Calibrated for adults across a 60–800L/min range, it supports regular monitoring of asthma, COPD and other respiratory conditions by allowing readings to be recorded and compared over time, creating a useful history of peak-flow changes for follow-up clinical review.
Its built-in three-zone management system uses green, yellow and red zones to provide a clear visual reference for monitoring peak-flow results. The zone indicators are independently adjustable, allowing personalised monitoring ranges to be set around the user’s individual peak-flow values. The clear numerical scale and moving indicator make results easy to read and record, while accuracy and repeatability assurance supports consistent ongoing monitoring.
Compact, lightweight and battery-free, the meter is easy to use at home and carry between monitoring locations. Its washable construction allows easy cleaning after use, while compatibility with disposable mouthpieces supports hygienic use where required, including when the meter is used by multiple patients.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Can the colour zones be changed if my monitoring targets change?
Yes. The green, yellow and red indicators are adjustable. A physician can reset the personalised zones according to the patient’s personal-best peak flow and monitoring plan.
Why are the colour zones personalised instead of using the same limits for everyone?
Peak-flow monitoring is based on the individual’s personal-best reading. Personalised zones provide a more relevant reference for identifying changes in peak expiratory flow over time.
How is peak-flow monitoring different from spirometry?
A peak flow meter measures Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) for regular monitoring at home or between appointments. Recording these readings over time helps build a history of peak-flow changes that can be reviewed during follow-up consultations. Spirometry is generally used in clinical settings to measure a broader range of lung-function parameters for more detailed respiratory assessment.
Does this peak flow meter require calibration before use?
No user calibration step is specified before routine use. The meter is designed for adult peak-flow measurement with defined accuracy and repeatability tolerances. Follow the operating and care instructions provided in the user manual.
Can the Rossmax Peak Flow Meter be cleaned between uses?
Yes. The meter has a washable design and can be cleaned between uses. Regular cleaning supports hygiene during repeated use; follow the cleaning instructions provided in the user manual.
