SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

DANGER: High voltages exist and are accessible. Do not remove cover of Drive. Use extreme caution

when servicing internal components.

CAUTIONS: Risk of electric shock – this pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type

attachment plug. To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a
properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.

Electrical connections and grounding (earthing) must conform to local wiring codes.

WARNINGS: Tubing breakage may result in fluid being sprayed from pump. Use appropriate measures to

protect operator and equipment.

Power must be removed from pump before removing or installing tubing. Fingers or loose
clothing could get caught in drive mechanism. Do not operate this pump without cover or
interlock door properly closed and latched. Rotating parts can cause serious injury.

To reduce risk of injury, do not pump materials hotter than 150 degrees Fahrenheit, (65.5°C).

Explanation of Symbols

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.

WARNING: PRODUCT USE LIMITATION

This product is not designed for, nor intended for use in, patient-connected applications, including, but not limited
to, medical and dental use, and, accordingly, has not been submitted for FDA approval. If drive is used in a manner
not specified in this manual the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

INTRODUCTION

This manual provides information for installing, operating and servicing the following models of MASTERFLEX®B/T

®

RAPID-LOAD peristaltic pumps.

MODEL TYPE

77110-00 Fixed Speed w/TEFC, 115V AC @ 60 Hz

77110-07 Fixed Speed w/TEFC, 230V AC @ 50 Hz

The unique design of these peristaltic pumps provides a greatly simplified means for rapid loading and changing of
tubing. In addition, different sizes and formulations of tubing can be used. Unlike many older type pumps where tubing
had to be carefully measured and tubing connectors were mandated, this pump provides for the use of a continuous
piece of tubing to ensure sanitary connections. Fluid contacts only the tubing and fittings. These pumps are designed
to handle a wide range of viscosities and can pump up to 10 GPM.

APPLICATION DATA

The gentle peristaltic action of these pumps is ideal for pumping highly viscous and shear-sensitive liquids. These
pumps are also ideally suited for use where sterile conditions and purity are required. Toxic and hazardous fluids can
be pumped with the proper selection of MASTERFLEX

PERFECTPOSITION

B/T tubing since the fluid contacts only

the tubing and not the pump.

WARNING: Tubing breakage may result in fluid being sprayed from pump. Use appropriate measures to

protect operator and equipment.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Due to its unique design, different MASTERFLEX

PERFECTPOSITION

B/T tubing sizes can be accommodated by

this RAPID-LOAD peristaltic pump.

For an indirect estimate of flow rate, a reflective element attached to the rotor has been provided for use with an
optical tachometer. Point tachometer beam through front cover window and target the reflective element.

To obtain flow rate in mL/min., multiply tachometer rpm reading times the nominal flow per revolution value provided in
TABLE 1 (Note: 3,785 mL = 1 U.S. liquid gallon).

If the pump is to be operated with back-pressure on the discharge line above 5 PSIG, hose clamps or screw-type
band clamps are recommended on the tubing connections on the discharge side of the pump. Silicone or C-FLEX

®

tubings, because of their highly elastic natures, can expand very quickly if back-pressure is present and could create
leakage at the fittings if not securely retained. It is this same elastic nature, however, that makes them such excellent
materials for this peristaltic type pump and give it its long life. NORPRENE®tubing yields longer life especially under
pressure. Do not attempt to use other materials in lieu of these, as pump performance could be severely compromised
with possible damage to the pump. Refer to TABLE 1 for tubing recommendations.
