1 Intr oduction 1-1 1.1 Description The peristaltic pump offers exceptional simplicity, ease-of- use, and variable flow capacity. The pump is self-priming and non-siphoning. It prevents back flow since one of the three rollers is always compressing the tubing.

3 Setting Up the Pump(s) 3-1 3.1 Introduction To attach a single pump directly to a pump motor, follow the procedure in Section 3.3.1. To stack two pumps to a motor, follow the procedure in Section 3.3.2. To attach the pump to an adapter plate (for your own motor), follow the procedure in Section 3.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-2 3.3 Attaching the Pump 3.3.1 Attaching a Single Pump Directly to the Motor Refer to Figures 3-1 through 3-4 and Figure A. Figure 3-1. Pump in Closed Position Figure 3-2. Aligning the Rotor Shaft Figure 3-3. Aligning the Pins and Holes Figure 3-4.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-3 1. Refer to Figure 3-1. Make sure the pump is in the closed position. 2. Refer to Figure 3-2 and Figure A. Place the blade of a flathead screwdriver in the groove of the Rotor Shaft (5). Rotate the Rotor Shaft until its back tab slips into the groove of the motor shaft.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-4 3.3.2 Stacking T wo Pumps onto One Motor Refer to Figures 3-5 through 3-7 and Figure B. Figure 3-5. Placing the Second Pump Figure 3-6.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-5 1. Refer to Figures 3-1 through 3-3. Perform Steps 1, 2 and 3 in Section 3.3.1 to put the first pump on the face of the motor. 2. Refer to Figure 3-5 and Figure B. Make sure the second pump is in the closed position. 3. Refer to Figure 3-6 and Figure B.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-6 3.3.3 Attaching a Single Pump to an Adapter Plate Refer to Figures 3-8 through 3-11 and Figure C. Figure 3-8. Mounting the Adapter Plate Figure 3-9.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-7 The adapter plate is designed to have the same alignment pins and mounting holes as the front face of the standard pump motor. It acts as an interface between a non-standard pump motor and the peristaltic pump. The non-standard pump motor must have a motor shaft groove large enough to accept the the pump rotor shaft.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-8 3.3.4 Using Y our Own Adapter Plate Figure 3-12 shows the dimensions of the front of the pump and the rear of the pump. These diagrams enable you to locate and drill out the proper size holes so you can mount the pump to a motor using your own adapter plate.
Setting Up the Pump(s) 3 3-9 Notes.
4 T ubing Information 4-1 4.1 Selecting T ubing Select a tubing material and size that is right for your application (the fluid and flow rate that you are pumping).
Tubing Information 4 4-2 Notes.
5 Operating the Pump 5-1 5.1 Introduction This chapter discusses the following topics: • Loading the tubing (Section 5.2) • Operating the Pump (Section 5.3) and • Adjusting the Clamp Screw (Section 5.4). Read each section thoroughly to guarantee successful pump operation.
Operating the Pump 5 5-2 5.2 Loading the T ubing Before you load the tubing in the pump, make sure that power to the motor is turned off and that the rotor has come to a complete stop. The rotor is partially exposed when the pump is in the open position.
Operating the Pump 5 5-3 1. Refer to Figure 5-1 and Figure D. Snap open the Stator (1) by pushing the spring-loaded area of the Latch (2). Remove any old tubing from the pump, if necessary. 2. Refer to Figure 5-2 and Figure D. Loop the Tubing (10) over the rollers.
Operating the Pump 5 5-4 5.3 Operating the Pump With the pump set up, adjust all control settings for the pump motor and start pumping. Figure 5-5 shows fluid flow directions with respect to motor directions. Extensive testing has shown that the minimum motor speed required to prime the tubing varies significantly with the size of the tubing.
Operating the Pump 5 5-5 Figure 5-5b. Inlet and Outlet Flow 5.4 Adjusting the Clamp Screw Once you start the pump, you may need to adjust the Clamp Screw (4) slightly, to prevent the tube from creeping (moving) through the pump. Creeping tends to occur on tubing of larger sizes and tubing made from low friction materials (for example, Santoprene).
1. Turn the pump motor off. 2. Rotate the clamp screw a quarter turn clockwise, in order to increase the pressure of the clamp plate on the tube. 3. Turn the motor power back on and observe the tubing. If the tubing has not stopped creeping, go back to Step 1.
Operating the Pump 5 5-7 Notes.
6 Maintenance 6-1 6.1 Introduction • No lubrication is required for the pump. All bearings are pre-sealed and rated for long life. • After many hours of use, fine particles of tubing will tend to accumulate inside the pump and on the rollers. Use a high pressure air hose (60 PSI) to blow out most of the particles from the pump.
Maintenance 6 6-2 6.2 Replacing the Rotor Assembly (Part Number FPU500-RA) In the replacement kit you will find one Rotor Assembly ( 13 ) and two Washers ( 12 ) .
Maintenance 6 6-3 1. Using a phillips head screwdriver, remove the two #6 Self- Tapping Screws (14) on the back of the base that hold the pump together. 2. Pull apart the three major plastic assemblies in the pump – the Lower Shield (7), Base (8), and Stator (1) Assemblies.
Maintenance 6 6-4 Notes.
7 T r oubleshooting Guide 7-1 Problem Solution No flow out of the outlet tubing 1. Check to see that the Stator is snapped shut. If it is, push down on the Stator while the motor is running. This action enhances the self-priming capability of the pump.
Troubleshooting Guide 7 7-2 Problem Solution Fluid flows in the opposite 1. Check tubing connections to source direction of what is intended and drain containers. 2. Check that the motor is rotating in the correct direction. Refer to Figure 5-5. Fluid flow direction cannot The motor only turns in one be reversed direction.
Troubleshooting Guide 7 7-3 Problem Solution Motor will not turn 1. Make sure the tubing is loaded properly. The tubing should be centered in the middle of the rollers. Reload if necessary. 2. Check to see if the motor is turned on. 3. Check motor fuse.
Troubleshooting Guide 7 7-4 Notes.
8 T echnical Details 8-1 8.1 Theory of Operation A peristaltic pump is a fluid pump which operates to create a moving region of compression along a flexible tube. The motion of the compressed region of the tube along its axis forces fluid ahead and creates a partial vacuum behind the region.
Technical Details 8 8-2 Because of the back tab and groove found in the Rotor Shaft design, pumps can be stacked one of top of another and attached to a common pump motor. Only one motor needs to be purchased to pump fluid between several different containers.
