Installation and Setup
Use only Microbore Autoanalysis tubing with MICROFLEX pumps to ensure
optimum performance. Use of other tubing may void applicable warranties.
Appendix A provides a list of tubing sizes which will work efficiently with
the FH10 MICROFLEX Pump System. This list includes tubing
diameters, flow rates in µL/min and the maximum flow rates at 10 rpm,
80 rpm and 300 rpm. Tubing is listed by part number.
The Pump Head as supplied from the factory is orientated such that the
tubing exits the left hand side of the FH10 MICROFLEX Pump System.
The orientation of the Pump Head can be changed as follows.
1. Remove the 4 screws (see Figure 2-1) on the face of the unit holding
the pump mounting plate in place. Retain the 4 screws for reassembly.
2. Rotate the Pump Head by turning it in the orientation desired. DO
NOT PULL OUT THE PUMP, only rotate it. Some resistance to
rotation will be felt.
3. Reinstall the 4 screws into the pump mounting plate and tighten.
