DANGER: Remove power from the Pump System before any
cleaning operation is started.
WARNINGS: Before installing tubing into the Pump Head
remove power or shut off the drive. Fingers or loose clothing
could be caught in the rollers.
Tubing breakage may result in fluid being sprayed from pump.
Use appropriate measures to protect operator and equipment.
CAUTION: Tubing for use with the FH15 and FH30 Compact Pump
Systems are two-stop tubing sets. See Appendix A for specifics.
Use of tubing sets other than that specified will result in poor
pumping performance and/or pump system damage and voiding
of applicable warranty.
CAUTION: Risk of Danger. Consult Operator’s manual for nature
of hazard and corrective actions.
CAUTION: Risk of crushing. Keep fingers away from rotor while
pump is in operation. Stop pump before loading or unloading
tubing.
CAUTION: Hot Surface. Do not touch.
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock. Consult Operator’s manual for
nature of hazard and corrective actions.

Section 1 Introduction
The FH15 & FH30 Compact Pump Systems, Figure 1-1, are enclosed in a
painted steel and anodized aluminum housing.
Figure 1-1. FH15 & FH30 Compact Pump System
The Pump System can accommodate one or two tubes simultaneously
(depending on model) at controlled speeds as low as 20 rpm. Tubing is
held in place by stops bonded to the tubing and slots in the Tubing
Retainer Bracket. For a list of tube sets for use with the Pump System,
refer to Appendix A.
The latching occlusion bed allows quick loading or changing of tubing.
The Pump Head rotor contains three rollers for optimum flow and
positive flow checking. All units operate from an external DC power
supply and are supplied with a Universal Power Supply (see Input
Specification for operating voltage/frequency). This power supply provides
a DC output for connection to the pump drive.

The single-turn, adjustable Speed Control, Figure 1-2, provides variable
flow operation. The green PWR On indicator lights whenever the pump
is operating. The Power On/Direction switch turns power on when either
clockwise or counterclockwise pump rotor direction is selected. The 䊳䊳
button is used for priming and purging and operates the pump at
maximum speed when depressed.

The Rear Panel, Figure 1-3, contains a DC Power Input jack for
connection of primary power and a 4-terminal barrier strip for connection
of Remote Start/Stop and for a remote DC supply.
