5 Handling and maintenance

5.1 General information

5.1.1 Care

The 843 Pump Station requires appropriate care. Excess contamination of the instrument may result in functional disruptions and a reduction in the service life of the sturdy mechanics and electronics.
Spilled chemicals and solvents must be removed immediately. Above all, the plug connections on the rear of the instrument (in particular the mains con­nection socket) should be protected from contamination.
Caution
Although this is extensively prevented by design measures, the mains plug should be unplugged immediately if aggressive media has penetrated the inside of the instrument, so as to avoid serious damage to the instrument electronics. In such cases, the Metrohm Service must be informed.

5 Handling and maintenance

5.1.2 Maintenance by Metrohm Service

Maintenance of the 843 Pump Station is best carried out as part of an annual service, which is performed by technicians of the Metrohm company. If working frequently with caustic and corrosive chemicals, a shorter mainte­nance interval could be necessary.
The Metrohm service department offers every form of technical advice for maintenance and service of all Metrohm instruments.

5.2 Pump

Caution
The Pump Station must be switched off immediately with the Emergency Stop switch if the peristaltic pump becomes blocked. If this is not done, then the pump could suffer damage from overheating.

5.3 Tubings

5.3 Tubings

5.3.1 Safety instructions

Because of the fact that the pump is subject to wear, it must be replaced on a regular basis. Worn-out, defective pump tubing represents a safety risk, particularly when aggressive liquids are being conveyed.
Note
Check the pump tubing regularly for cracking, leaks or the intake of air
Use separate pump tubings for different liquids. Dispose of used tubing without delay.

5.3.2 Selection of pump tubings

The most important decision when using peristaltic pumps is the selection of suitable tubing material. Always use tubings particularly intended for per­istaltic pumps.
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
The peristaltic pump of the Pump Station is supplied with a PharMed® pump tubing (Order no. 6.1826.100; 6,4/9,5 mm made of thermoplastic poly­propylene). It is especially suitable for aqueous media.
For the transport of non-aqueous solutions, we recommend a Viton pump tubing (Order no. 6.1826.160).
If you need other tubings for your application, take care of the following points when evaluating the pump tubings:
Chemical resistance Pressure build-up in the pump tubing Sterilizability Temperature of the pump medium and the environment Viscosity of the liquid Permeability of the pump tubing Demanded delivery rate Tubing dimensions

5.3.3 Tubing replacement and service life

Pump tubings have a limited service life and must therefore be replaced at regular intervals. Factors which could influence the service life of tubings in the peristaltic pump include:
■■■■■■■■
22
Pumping speed (rolling effect/min) Properties of the liquid being conveyed Initial pressure Ambient temperature
843 Pump Station with Peristaltic Pumps
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
5 Handling and maintenance
Shearing force of the rollers Twisting or kinking of the tubing Excessive tubing length under the pressure clamp Changes in wall thickness
Observe the following when using tubings:
If the tubing is not pulled sufficiently tightly around the rotor, then this
will have a negative effect on the service life of the tubing. The tubing has a tendency to unfold in such situations. If the tubing is too tightly pulled, then the flow will be narrowed.
The tubing will last longer if you loosen the pressure clamp when the
pump is not being used.
In order to achieve good repeatability of feed rate following a change in
tubing, it is imperative that you always choose the same tubing length.
Before replacing the tubing turn off the peristaltic pumps with the
mains switch, or pull out the mains cable of the Pump Station in order to prevent any unintended starting of the pump.
Before replacing the tubing, make sure that all of the liquid has been
pumped out of the tubing.
Loosen the pressure clamp and remove the old tubing.
Note
Use only Pharmed® tubing as replacements for the pump tubing.

5.3.4 Suitability test for tubings

Place a short piece of the tubing for 48 hours in an enclosed container that has been filled with the liquid that is to be conveyed. Afterwards, inspect the piece of tubing for signs of swelling, brittleness or other limitations.
Caution
An incorrectly selected tubing materials can endanger both users and instruments.
