Pump Tube Life – Several factors shorten the pump tube life.
Among them are:
• Incorrect installation.
• Abrasive materials suspended in sample liquid.
• Frequent line rinses.
• Long purge cycles, such as those used with long suction
lines.
To extend the life of the pump tubes:
• Always use Isco pump tubes.
• Install the tube properly, aligning the blue collars
correctly in the notches.
• Follow the natural curve of the tube when wrapping the
tube around the pump rollers.
• Minimize the line rinses and sampling retries in the
sampling programs.
• Use the shortest possible suction line.
