2.0 Introduction These Operating Instructions describe the function and the use of the Masterflex L/S pump drive with coupling to a centrifugal pump head. This manual is just an addition to the Masterflex pump drive manual which describes the functions and the handling of the AP40 pump head. The Masterflex pump drive manual can be found on the USB-stick delivered with the pump drive.
2.2 Range of application and safety precautions The pumps are intended for liquid handling in laboratory and industry. We assume that all laboratory guidelines are observed as well as the recommendations given below: • The electrical circuit between supply and pump must be grounded, use only grounded power cables •...
2.4 List of items supplied • Masterflex L/S pump drive with mounted magnetic coupling for AP40 head • mains supply cable • Operating Instructions Accessory if ordered: • AP40 pump head (73-5173) Please check the packaging and the contents for transport damage. If you find any signs of a damage please contact the supplier immediately.

3.2 Step by Step example to do the pump settings: Fig. 6 NAVIGATION: In the Main Menu chose the CONTINUOUS MODE menu. Mode Display: Shows the current operating mode in which the drive will operate. Pressing ENTER key when highlighted will cycle through the different operation modes. Use always only the CONTINUOUS MODE together with the centrifugal pump head.

3.4 Starting the Pump It is assumed that at this point you have already pre-programmed the PUMP in LOCAL or REMOTE DIRECT MODE In both modes you first have to press the blue start button to start the pump Fig. 11 If you are in LOCAL CONTINUOS MODE the speed can be altered while the pump is running by changing the displayed RPM.
4.0 Application example: Controlling the Centrifugal Pump by PLUGSYS SCP module i.o. to perform a constant pressure perfusion In this application the Centrifugal Pump is used to perform a constant pressure perfusion i.o. to perfuse an isolated organ under constant pressure conditions. The perfusion pressure is measured by using an APT300 pressure transducer connected to a TAM-D amplifier.
5.0 Analog interface connector see original pump drive manual No internal adjustment necessary All setting run via the keys on the display 6.0 Centrifugal pump head The pump head described below is especially designed for pumping blood or erythrocyte suspensions. The AP40 (Medtronic) head can be directly clipped into the holder of the pump drive.
6.1 Output characteristic of an AP40 pump head Diagram 1 shows the flow-pressure characteristic of the combination Masterflex L/S pump drive with pump head AP40 at varying speed settings. At each speed a particular pressure was produced by squeezing the tubing and the flow was measured.
6.2 Fitting and removing the AP40 pump head When fitting or removing the pump head the pump drive must be switched off! The baseplate of the pump head is inserted from above into the slot between magnet box and the black pressure plate and pushed down up to the stop.

7.0 Operating notes Before switch-on Ensure that the pump head is filled with the liquid to be pumped before you switch on. Operating the pump head dry may damage the rotor bearing. Pumping against pressure The maximum flow rate depends on the back pressure (see Diagram 1, chapter 6.1). Speed setting In order to keep haemolysis low you should not set a higher speed than necessary.
8.0 Maintenance and cleaning The pump drive does not require any special maintenance. Any dirt on the housing should be removed immediately. A cloth moistened with water should be used for cleaning. With strongly adhering dirt you can add a little cleaning solution (domestic detergent) to the water. WARNING: •...
