Fluid System
Once an Abbott VP 2000 Processor is installed, all fluid-flow
operations are automatic and are controlled from the PC.
Figure 3.4 is a schematic of the fluid system. During
installation (refer to the Abbott VP 2000 User Guide, Section 3,
Installation, Configuration and Startup Procedures), the length
of tubing marked Water-In Line is attached to extension
tubing using a hose clamp. the extension line is in turn
attached to the laboratory water supply. The system is
designed for the Fluid-In tubing to be attached to a tapered
barbed fitting on the laboratory water supply. It is secured at
the laboratory supply with a hose clamp (provided). If the user
does not have a standard fixture, an adapter must be
purchased to interface with the laboratory fitting. The Drain
Line similarly attaches to extension tubing that is then routed
to the laboratory drain. THE ENTIRE DRAIN LINE MUST BE
BELOW THE WATER LEVEL IN THE UNIT.
The feet on the unit create sufficient clearance between the
base of the unit and the laboratory bench top to permit the
Drain and Water-In Lines to be routed under the unit and out
any of the four (4) sides. Before attaching the extension
tubing, the two (2) lines can be routed to the side of the unit
that produces the least cluttered or most direct route to the
laboratory drain and supply.
When the laboratory supply is turning ON, water flows
through a regulator to a 120V solenoid valve on the water
input. This valve is normally closed. Based on operator
selections its operation is controlled by logic signals from the
Computer Control Board.
A mechanical pressure regulator makes the unit fairly
independent of variations in laboratory water systems (from
10 PSIA to 100 PSIA are acceptable). Water enters the Wash
Bath directly from the Regulator/Solenoid valve or from the
pump, depending on the fluid flow mode selected. The Wash
Bath has a stand pipe that is mounted in a drain hole in the
bottom of the bath. When water flows over the top of the
standpipe it passes out the drain line. The drain is gravity
driven.
In the Fluid Flow-Through mode, the Solenoid Valve is open
and the Pump is OFF. Fluid flows through the regulator an
solenoid and into the wash bath. As the level rises, fluid then
flows over the standpipe and out the drain.
