Safety notes This safety information should be used in conjunction with the rest of this operating manual. In the interests of safety, this pump and pumphead should only be used by competent, suitably trained personnel after they have read and understood the manual and considered any hazard involved.
Page 7
Fundamental work with regard to lifting, transportation, installation, starting-up, maintenance and repair should be performed by qualified personnel only. The unit must be isolated from mains power while work is being carried out. The motor must be secured against accidental start-up. Removal of the track and cartridge replacement should only be carried out by suitably trained personnel using the appropriate service tool.
Page 8
There are no user-serviceable fuses or parts inside this pump. ® Connect power using the supplied Harting PushPull Power cable. The mains plug at the opposite end of the cable is NOT IP66 rated. It is your responsibility to ensure that the connection to the mains supply is IP66 rated.
Page 9
Ensure the chemicals to be pumped are compatible with the pumphead, tubing, pipework and fittings to be used with the pump. Please refer to the chemical compatibility guide which can be found at: www.wmftg.com/chemical. If you need to use the pump with any other chemical please contact Watson-Marlow to confirm compatibility.
Peristaltic pumps - an overview Peristaltic pumps are the simplest possible pump, with no valves, seals or glands to clog or corrode. The fluid contacts only the bore of a tube, eliminating the risk of the pump contaminating the fluid, or the fluid contaminating the pump. How they work A compressible tube is squeezed between a roller and a track on an arc of a circle, creating a seal at the point of contact.
When you unpack your pump Unpacking your pump Unpack all parts carefully, retaining the packaging until you are sure all components are present and in good order. Check against the components supplied list, below. Packaging disposal Dispose of packaging materials safely, and in accordance with regulations in your area. The outer carton is made of wood and can be recycled.
Start-up check list Note: See also "Cartridge replacement" on page 70. Ensure that a single use cartridge is installed in the pumphead BEFORE the pump power is first turned on, (otherwise it is more difficult to set the operating language). Ensure that proper connections are achieved between the pump and suction and discharge piping.
Bolt Down Bracket Installation The supplied "Bolt Down Bracket" must be fitted to this pump in situations where the pumphead would be unsupported. An unsupported pumphead is likely to cause the pump unit to tip up and fall from its mounting location, which may cause damage or injury.

Analog mode In this remote operating mode the flow rate will be proportional to the external milliamp or voltage signal input received by the pump. The relationship between the external analog signal and the flow rate is determined by configuring the two points A and B as shown in the graph below.
The analog signal being received by the pump is displayed, for information only, on the INFO screen. Press INFO to display this information. 16.1 Analog calibration The pump must be stopped before attempting to calibrate the values. High and low signals must be within range. If the signal sent is out of range you will not be able to set the signal input value and progress to the next step in the process.
16.2 Calibrate Input 1 Using the ∧ /∨ keys, scroll to Analog Input and press SELECT. Select the input signal type using the ∧ /∨ keys and press SELECT. The pump gives the option to enter the high and low mA or V signals manually or via the analog input.

17.5 Manual dosing From the MemoDose Home screen, press START to deliver a dose. The screen displays the dose flow rate and the dose remaining counting down from 100% to 0%. If the delivered dose differs from the volume required, the percentage may be adjusted within the limits 1% to 999% of the master dose.
Cartridge replacement Removal of the track and cartridge replacement should only be carried out by suitably trained personnel using the appropriate service tool. Always isolate the pump from the mains power supply using the switch on the front of the unit (or other external means) before opening any track, or performing any positioning, removal or maintenance operation.

Tube Replacement - Sanitary Connectors Ensure that the pump is switched off. Take applicable precautions to catch any residual liquid that may be left in the tubes and cartridge. Follow the procedure below to install sanitary connectors, removal is a reverse procedure. 1.
Good pump installation practice 20.1 General recommendations It is recommended that the pump is sited on a flat, horizontal, rigid surface, free from excessive vibration, to ensure the correct pumphead operation. Allow a free flow of air around the pump to ensure that heat can be dissipated. Ensure that the ambient temperature around the pump does not exceed the recommended maximum operating temperature.
Page 74
Ensure that any unused M12 connectors are suitably sealed in order to maintain the IP/NEMA rating. Cartridge selection: The chemical compatibility guide published on the Watson Marlow website is for guidance. If in any doubt about the compatibility of a material and the duty fluid, contact Watson-Marlow.
Connecting to a power supply A well regulated electrical mains supply is required along with cable connections conforming to the best practice of noise immunity. It is not recommended to site these drives alongside 'dirty' electrical mains devices, such as 3-phase contactors and inductive heaters without special attention being paid to unacceptable mains-borne noise.
21.1 Harting connector The pump is connected to the mains supply via a Harting connector plug on the rear of the pump, with connections as shown in the following diagram. Connect to IP66 standard by firmly pushing the plug until it is latched and then fix in place with the supplied clip.
Control wiring 22.1 Quantum M12 interface power supply limits Signal Connector Voltage Load 5V Ref 4.5 - 5V @ no load Total of all pins 10mA max 10V Ref 10V @ no load Minimum load 4K7 ohms 22.2 Quantum universal interface M12 pin assignments The illustration below shows the M12 connectors as they appear on the rear panel, with their respective pinouts listed in the following table.
Compatible, IP rated external shielded mating connector types: Amphenol, MSAS-08BFFB-SL7001, MSAS-08BMMB-SL7001. IP rated unshielded: Amphenol 12-08BMMA-SL8001, 12-08BFFA-SL8001. Shielded connections are recommended for minimising EMC emissions. The cable section must be circular to ensure a seal. Never apply mains power to the M12 terminals. Apply the correct signals to the terminals.
