1.0 VitaPump: Overview
The VitaPump provides high precision, high accuracy, programmable metering capability. The
VitaPump utilizes an optically encoded, servo- controlled motor, ensuring a highly reproducible
pump performance. The VitaPump comes with the TANDEM peristaltic pump head (TANDEM
Model 1081), or an FMI Q1 SAN pump head which is powered by a 160 rpm motor.
1.1 PumpSense™: Pump Overload Protection
When the installed pump head requires excessive torque because of pump tube failure or
“freezing” of the pump head, the VitaPump software will recognize this condition and go into
a stand-by mode. The pump motor is turned off and the following message is displayed:
Before continuing with your pumping application, remove the defective pump head and either clean
the pump head or replace with a functional pump head. The PumpSense feature has been
implemented as a failsafe device to protect your pump head and motor control circuit from
permanent damage.
NOTE:
Call Parker Customer Service at 805-604 to arrange for service if the “Check Your Pump
Head” message does not disappear after the above suggested measures have been taken.
Pump tubing can become frayed when overused. When this happens, the pump tubing tends to
wind itself around the pump rotor: To avoid this problem, check your pump tubing at regular
intervals, move the used tube section 3-4 inches to the pump discharge side. Use only high quality,
correctly sized pump tubing.
1.2 Pump Head/Motor:
The VitaPump comes with a 160 rpm, optically encoded, servo-controlled motor and a TANDEM
Dual Channel Peristaltic Pump Head. Materials of Construction: Stainless Steel and Noryl high
impact resistant plastic, four (4) roller design (stainless steel). Passive pump tube retention, two
stainless steel forks automatically engage pump tubing when the TANDEM pump head is closed.
The TANDEM Model 1081 (P/N: 080-1081) is compatible with thin-walled (0.062”) Masterflex pump
tube sizes 13, 14, 16, 25, 17 &
18.
If you have a system with backpressure in excess of 30 psi, the VitaPump is available with an FMI
Q Sanitary Piston Pump. This pump head will handle up to 100 psi, and is constructed of 316 SS
and Ceramic parts. It handles similar flow rates to the Tandem 1081 head, and is equipped for ¼”
ID tubing.
