5.5 USING EMERGENCY DRIVE
A ROTAFLOW System can be easily replaced with a spare ROTAFLOW System.
In emergencies, the ROTAFLOW Centrifugal Pump can be operated manually with
the ROTAFLOW Emergency Drive.
Bubble and level monitoring in “STAND AL” mode
Monitoring is performed by the internal bubble sensor of the ROTAFLOW Drive
and a level sensor, which is connected to the ROTAFLOW Console.
In “STAND AL” mode the pressure is not monitored.

tube clamp.

Pump from the ROTAFLOW Drive.
