2. Introduction
The instructions in this manual are task-oriented for easy reference. You can go directly
to a particular section and quickly find the answers. Appendix A (See page 12) lists
tubing loading capacity depending on the maximum rpm of your Masterflex® L/S®
pump drive used with this system.
Pump Heads
These multichannel pumps, designed to provide up to eight simultaneously driven
pump channels, incorporate the following features:
• Simultaneous dispensing through up to eight separate channels with one set-up
and pump cycle.
• Six-roller design that provides reduced pulsation
Application Data
The pump head is designed for multichannel use. Tubing found in Table 2
(See page 9) may be used to deliver from .0026 to 200 mL/min.
General Description
Each pump head is constructed with rugged anodized aluminum frames, stainless
steel rotor assemblies, and either one or two precision machined aluminum occlu-
sion beds. Occlusion beds are designed to compress the Masterflex microbore tubing
for optimum performance—no occlusion adjustment is required. Each occlusion bed
will accommodate up to 4 channels of microbore tubing. Pump heads can be stacked
(up to eight, 4-channel or four, 8-channel pump heads) to allow up to 32 channels of
simultaneous pumping. Each pump head contains 6 rollers with shielded stainless
steel bearings, and can quickly mount to most existing Masterflex® L/S® tubing
pump drives.

1. Safety Precautions
WARNING:
Tubing breakage may result in fluid being sprayed from pump.
Use appropriate measures to protect operator and equipment.
Turn off drive before removing or installing tubing. Safety guard is provided to
minimize risk of fingers getting caught between roller mechanism and the base of
the module. However, be safe—keep your fingers away from these areas.
CAUTION:
Use only tubing combinations defined by Tables 1 and 2 (See
page 9). Use of other tubing could cause malfunction or damage to the
pump.
