If a different outlet tubing type is desired, please employ a union at the end of the 1/32-inch outlet tube to connect to the desired tubing type. CorSolutions has adapters available to convert from 1/32-inch to 1/16-inch (part number: Union-188-P) 3) The lines should be rinsed with 5% bleach before turning off the pump or after use with salty or viscous solutions. - Page 3 1B. To install the software version for computers currently running the program LabVIEW use the “CorSolutions Pump App Build” . Copy the entire directory “CorSolutions Pump App Build” with all its contents, to the computer hard drive. Then click on the application CorSolutionsPump.EXE, and installation will begin.

Starting the Software. Start the software by clicking on the “CorSolutions” icon shown below. A box, similar to the one below will then open. Then select “Scan All Ports”, as indicated below. A CorSolutions’ pump will be detected if present, and will be indicated in the “Device Found” field.

- Page 9 Liquid will soon be observed exiting the Flow Sensor inlet fitting, as shown below. Allow for liquid to continue exiting until all major air bubbles are purged. Purge Until Liquid Exits the tube and no air bubbles are observed CorSolutions Version V2.003...
- Page 10 Then reconnect the fitting into the flow sensor inlet, ensuring that the tubing is seated past the ferrule’s end for the PeriNano & PeriMicro pump models. (For the PeriMilli model, insure the tube is flush with the bottom of the flat bottom ferrule.) The image below shows how the tubing needs to protrude from the fitting end in order to make a proper connection to the flow sensor.

- Page 12 When the time limit has been reached, the software sets the flow rate to 0 µL/min. This feature is useful if a user wants the pump to run for a period of time, but to stop before the user returns to the lab. CorSolutions Version V2.003...

This valve loop allows for a small sample volume (based on user defined loop size) to be introduced to the microdevice with only the transfer tubing to the microdevice contributing to the system volume. The loop and tubing may be FEP or PEEK providing a relative inert flow path. CorSolutions’ Part number: ACC-154)
