Set the flow rate

Peristaltic Pump P-1 has two flow rate ranges for each tubing diameter. The appropriate
range is chosen by setting the flow rate switch to ×1 or ×10 giving a ten-fold variation
of the flow rate. The desired flow rate is then set with the flow rate potentiometer. To
estimate the appropriate setting, see the illustration below.
