SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ® ® CAUTION: Use only pre-formed MASTERFLEX PTFE tub- ing. Use of other tubing may result in premature or unknown failure modes. WARNINGS: Turn drive off before removing or installing tubing. Fin- gers or loose clothing could be caught in the rollers. Use recommended fittings only.
INTRODUCTION The Model 77390-00 PTFE Tubing Pump, Figure 1, provides quick loading of the special PTFE tubing assemblies. The pump is designed to work with the MASTERFLEX 2mm ID PTFE Tubing Model 77390-50 and 4mm ID Model 77390-60 and provides a wide flow range when used with compatible ®...
APPLICATION DATA The Model 77390-00 PTFE Tubing Pump is used to pump caustic and/or sterile liquids, particularly those liquids that are not compatible with other existing MASTERFLEX tubing materials. The use of PTFE tubing provides improved liquid compatibility and maintenance of liquid purity. The specially designed tubing assemblies provide for intermittent operation at pressures up to 100 psig.
INSTALLATION ® ® Mounting the Pump Head to a MASTERFLEX Pump Drive The Pump Head is attached to the drive unit with four supplied screws as shown in Figure 2. NOTE: Two Tang Boots are provided. The Pump Head is shipped with the closed end Tang Boot (A-3480) installed which matches most ®...
SETUP AND OPERATION Selecting Tubing Size The following chart provides approximate flow rates for the different tubing sizes when used at various speeds. Liquid medium is distilled water at 72°F (22.2°C) and zero psig backpressure. Tubing Catalog No. 77390-50 77390-60 Drive Speed r/min Initial Flow Rate mL/min...
Loading Tubing WARNING: Turn drive off before removing or installing tubing. Fin- gers or loose clothing could be caught in the rollers. 1. Rotate Locking Ring fully counterclockwise to unlock Occlusion Adjust- ment Knob. 2. Rotate the Occlusion Adjustment Knob completely counterclockwise. Figure 3.

4. Install the pre-formed PTFE tubing assembly in the groove of the Occlusion Bed as shown in Figure 4. Figure 4. Positioning Tubing Assembly in Occlusion Bed 5. Slide the occlusion assembly into the front of the body assembly. WARNING: Use recommended fittings only.
c. where higher pressure filters are used that do not have a built-in pressure relief system. 2. HIGH SYSTEM-generated back pressures. AN INJECTION CHECK/BACK PRESSURE VALVE should always be installed when pumping into a pressurized reservoir or line. This will prevent siphoning and/or backflow of liquid from a treated line in the event of tubing failure.
Optimized Occlusion Settings Occlusion is reduced by rotating the Adjustment Knob counterclockwise. Some applications require adjustment of the occlusion setting to maximize tube life while others require adjustment to maintain flow rate when substan- tial system pressure exists. However, the recommended setting will meet the requirements of most applications, giving both good tube life and some pressure capabilities.
