Roller Pumps

Features

The roller pump is used to move fluids through the
cardiopulmonary bypass circuit and can be used for a
number of applications including arterial blood pumping,
cardioplegia delivery, suction, and venting.
The Advanced Perfusion System 1 offers two roller pump
sizes - a large pump and a small pump.
• The large roller pump is a peristaltic pump with a 6
inch (15 cm) diameter raceway. It can accommodate
applications requiring flow rates up to 10 L/min
including adult and pediatric arterial, cardioplegia,
vent, and suction pumping. Because of the 6
inch diameter raceway, the large roller pump is
appropriate for high flow and large single tubing
applications. See the Select Tubing section in this
chapter for allowable tubing sizes.
• The small roller pump is a peristaltic pump with a 4 inch (10 cm) diameter
raceway. It can accommodate applications requiring flow rates up to 4 L/min
including pediatric arterial, adult and pediatric cardioplegia, vent, and suction
pumping. Because of the 4 inch diameter raceway, the small roller pump is
appropriate for low flow and dual-sized tubing applications. See the Select
Tubing section in this chapter for allowable tubing sizes.
All pumps can be mounted on the system base or on a pole. The pump can be
plugged into one of the 6 pump connections on the base or into any of the base
module connections.
A variable, insertless tube clamp mechanism accommodates a variety of tubing sizes,
including dual tube sets. The pump raceway can be repositioned and locked in
15 degree increments for placement of tubing to reduce its length. The occlusion
mechanism allows the user to adjust the position of the rollers at any time, including
when the pump is rotating. An audible feedback mechanism provides a series of
clicks whenever the occlusion is being adjusted.
Pumps have a front panel display which indicates the selected tube size or RPM,
direction of pump rotation, pump speed, flow rate, and safety, status, and error
messages.
The pump can be controlled from the pump speed control knob or from the pump
control slide bar on the Central Control Monitor (CCM).
