Setting the flow
The flow is set from 1.0 litres/min to 3.0 litres/min by means of an electronic
control unit. This can be adjusted by turning the flow control screw found on the
underside of the unit (6)
Running
When the pump is switched on the timer will display the time elapsed in minutes.
When the pump stops, the timer will display the elapsed time. If the pump is
restarted, the timer will begin to count from the time at which it stopped.
Alternatively the display can be zeroed using the reset button (4).
Charging
Each pump comes with a voltage detecting battery charger. This is preset to give
500mA charge rate for sufficient time to recharge the battery pack.
At this rate the battery will be fully recharged from flat in approx 5 hours.
When the charger is plugged into the charging socket the red LED will be
illuminated.
When the battery is sufficiently charged the green LED will light. The charger can
be left connected for extended periods if required.
The charger also has a discharge facility built in which is triggered by the yellow
button at the front of the charger. Use of this is not essential but it can be used to
ensure a full discharge/charge cycle if required.
Our sampling pumps are designed to withstand the punishment of a long and
active working life. Internally the pumps contain a high efficiency, rotary vane
vacuum unit with a capacity of up to 3.0 litres/min of air through a standard 0.8
micron membrane filter.
