Cole-Parmer
Section 2
Installation and Setup
•
The drive should be mounted on a flat horizontal surface. Up to a
maximum of two (2) Pump Heads can be added for 650 rpm drives.
•
The ambient air temperature should not exceed 104° F (40° C) and
adequate air flow should be provided for.
•
The drives are provided with a grounded plug. If used in a GFCI
protected circuit, nuisance tripping may occur.
•
Tubing should be clean and routed so that bend radii are at a
minimum four (4) times the tube diameter and as short as possible.
WARNING: Turn drive off before removing or installing tubing.
Fingers or loose clothing could get caught in drive mechanism.
•
Use a tube size of appropriate diameter for the flow rate and
viscosity required.
•
For tubing selection and compatibility, see Tubing Selection Guide
within this CD.
•
For Pump Head information, see Pump Head datasheets within
this CD.
•
Before cleaning or conducting maintenance on unit remove power
from the drive.
DANGER: High voltages exist and are accessible. Use extreme
caution when servicing internal components.
Mount Pump Head and load tubing (See Pump Head datasheets within
this CD). Check to ensure that rollers are clean and free of defects.
