ON LED On Off switch IMPORTANT CHOOSE THE RANGE THAT MATCHES THE ONE YOU ARE MOST LIKELY TO USE IN YOUR APPLICATION 6 Choosing the correct working range There are 4 working ranges to choose from These working ranges correspond to tube diameters The decimal point is shifted corresponding with the working range R1 ID 1 6mm for lt 10ml R2 ID O2 4mm for lt 250ml R3 ID O 3 2mm for lt 500ml R4 ID 4 8mm for lt 1 litres max display 10 000mI max display 250 0ml max display 500 0ml max display 999 9ml The single ul digit can not be entered in R1 Working with low volume dispenses with large diameter tube will reduce both precision and accuracy of dispenses Using the U D keys scroll to the screen displaying Range Enter Press Enter Using the U D keys choose the range corresponding to your tube diameter and press Enter The display will show the last volume you worked with at that particular range 7 Gravimetric pump calibration procedure Pump flow performance is subject of many factors among them the condition of the peristaltic tube and the viscosity of the reagent It is therefore important that you calibrate the pump before it is commissioned using your reagent and at periodic intervals Carry out the calibration procedure using a volume nearest to the volume you are most likely to dispense 1 Carry out 5 identical dispenses into a vessel and establish the gravimetric volume dispensed in ea

7. e in direct contact with the pumped fluid they are ideal for pumping high purity amp corrosive fluids and for contamination free dosing The principle of the peristaltic pump is based on a tube which is occluded by a series of rollers As a general rule the higher the number of rollers and the smaller the tube diameter the lower are the flow rates but better is the accuracy and precision The 9200 controller is equipped as a standard with 4 roller system and 4 8mm ID tube This tube diameter together with maximum speed delivers a flow rate of 480ml min The highest dispense accuracy is achieved by using a semi rigid tube on the outlet of the pump We recommend thin wall tubing such as FEP or PVC tube 3 The peristaltic tube 4 The Control Panel Pressure lever The peristaltic tube is made from Santoprene and the connectors are ee ann Nylon PA Please make sure the reagents you intend to use are compatible with these materials See chart on back page Sows Saad 3 A Clamping the peristaltic tube The pump controller is delivered with a ID 4 8mm Santoprene tube Move the lever up to open the clamp and load the tube as central as possible on the pump s rotor 3 B Releasing the peristaltic tube when you have finished Whenever the pump is not in use for long periods of time it is important to release the pressure off the tube This will reduce tube deformation and ensure that accuracy precision is maximised

9. plications 18 FAQ 1 Q Why does the pump stalls or runs slower than expected when new tubing is installed A A new tube is stiff when new so has to be shaped for some time before it gains it s elasticity Run the pump in continuous mode for a total of approx 5 minutes with the clamp lever half open to start with gradually moving the clamp lever to fully closed position 2 Q have entered a volume but nothing happens after pressing the GO button A The volume you entered is too small for the tube size you use The motor can not turn accurately a very small amount and the dispense is cancelled Use a smaller tube diameter for low volume dispenses 3 Q What is the life of the tube A The life of a peristaltic tube depends on many variants such as speed the reagent it is pumping and temperature In general you should expect approximately 800 hours operation from one Pharmed tube and approx 150 hours from a Silicone tube 4 Q Why does the displayed value sometime jump in double figures A This happens when dispensing small volumes and instrument in course calibration Following the calibration procedure the instrument s mathematical calculation divides the volume to be dispensed by the number of pulses received from the motor s encoder and stores this value If the volume per rotor rotation is relatively large the ratio of pulses to volume is coarse In these circumstances the required volume input does not divide into stored
