3. transfer metering and dispensing In contrary to centrifugal and gear pumps peristaltic pumps handle fluids of various viscosities are self priming and can operate in either flow direction With no valves seals or packing to come 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 squeezed 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 9100 controller is equipped as a standard with 3 roller system and 2 0mm ID tube This tube diameter together with maximum speed delivers a flow rate of 50ml min This combination offers an ideal tool for applications which require volumes between 500ul and 50ml For smaller dispense volumes use the 1 0mm ID tube The pump is also designed to work in continuous mode 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 tubing ID1 5mm X OD2 1mm or PVC tube Page 1 1 The peristaltic tube 5 Adjusting the dispense volume Press keys VOLUME UP or VOLUME DOWN to enter the volume nearest to your desired The peristaltic tube is made from volume Santoprene and the connectors are Nylon PA Please make sure the reagents you in

7. ble figures A This happens when dispensing small volumes with the ID2 0mm tubing 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 values and therefore the calculator will Sete aie eden a eee fee weber nic aad ID1 0mm tube the dispensed volume per rotor rotation is small enough Calcium salts lodine and solutions Phthalic acid Zinc salts i P pe a to allow single ul per displayed digit ee a E Little or no effect on Satoprene 4 Q Can leave the unit switched ON throughout the day A Yes you can The dispenser requires very little energy when the pump is not running so continuous power into the unit will not harm it ee e e e e Q Why can t I set slower dispense speed A The motor s speed is controlled via the voltage supply to the motor Too low voltage and the pump s motor will stall in particular when the tubing is new and the resulting load on the motor is higher 6 Q Can I dispense hot reagents using the dispenser A Yes the dispenser to works safely with media temperatures of up to 100 C Be aware that the internal electronics could be damaged by any ingress of fluids or steam va
