Operation
This section describes the procedures for obtaining desired performance.
Flow rate is determined by the drive speed and the tubing size.
WARNING: Tubing breakage may result in fluid being sprayed
from pump. Use appropriate measures to protect operator and
equipment.
The Pump System can be set to operate in either a clockwise or a
counterclockwise direction. The same control used to select direction also
turns power on or off. Select direction of pump operation desired. PWR
indicator should light.
Pump speed is controlled by the variable Speed Control. Turning the
control clockwise increases the speed. Tube life is decreased with increased
operating speed.
The
䊳䊳
push button is used for priming and purging the Pump System.
When
䊳䊳
is depressed, the pump operates at maximum speed in the
selected direction until the button is released. Approximately two feet of
tubing length can be filled or emptied per minute using the
䊳䊳
push
button on the 10 rpm units.
