Page 15: Calibration
Calibration Calibration (High Flow: 1000 to 5000 ml/min) Before use, allow pump to equilibrate after moving it from one temperature extreme to another. Run pump for 5 minutes before performing calibration. Connect pump inlet to the outlet of a primary standard calibrator with representative sample medium in line. -
Page 16: Low Flow: 5 To 500 Ml/Min
Calibration Calibration (Low Flow: 5 to 500 ml/min) Requires Constant Pressure Controller (CPC) and Adjustable Low Flow Tube Holder - see Accessories, Low Flow Adapter Kit on page 19. Before use, allow pump to equilibrate after moving it from one temperature extreme to another. -
Page 17: Sampling
Sampling Sampling • Before use, allow pump to equilibrate after moving it from one temperature extreme to another. • Use of any device or battery pack other than P85004 and P84002 (including alkaline) to power the pump voids the UL Listing for intrinsic safety. •... - Page 18 Sampling Note A low battery fault may occur instead of a fl ow fault when there is a low battery charge at the time of the fault, excessive back pressure, and/or when there is a very short distance between the restriction and the pump inlet (e.g., fi nger fault versus pinched tubing).
