Storage
This product has an extended shelf life. However,
care should be taken after storage to ensure that all
parts function correctly. Long-term storage is not
recommended for peristaltic pump tubing. Please
observe the storage recommendations and use-by
dates which apply to tubing you may wish to bring
into service after storage.
1.5 Information for
returning pumps
If you wish to return a pump for service or other
reasons, contact Watson-Marlow or your distributor,
quote your pump’s serial number, and ask for a
returns number. Include this number when you ship
the pump.
Equipment which has been contaminated with, or
exposed to, body fluids, toxic chemicals or any
other substance hazardous to health must be
decontaminated before it is returned to WatsonMarlow or its distributor.
A certificate included at the rear of these operating
instructions, or signed statement, must be attached
to the outside of the shipping carton. This certificate
is required even if the pump is unused. See 1.14
Decontamination certificate.
If the pump has been used, the fluids that have
been in contact with the pump and the cleaning procedure must be specified along with a statement
that the equipment has been decontaminated.

1.6 Peristaltic pumps an overview
Peristaltic pumps are the simplest possible pump,
with no valves, seals or glands to clog or corrode.
The fluid contacts only the bore of a tube, eliminating the risk of the pump contaminating the fluid, or
the fluid contaminating the pump. Peristaltic pumps
can operate dry without risk.
How they work
A compressible tube is squeezed between a roller
and a track on an arc of a circle, creating a seal at
the point of contact. As the roller advances along
the tube, the seal also advances. After the roller has
passed, the tube returns to its original shape, creating a partial vacuum which is filled by fluid drawn
from the inlet port.
Before the roller reaches the end of the track, a second roller compresses the tube at the start of the
track, isolating a packet of fluid between the compression points. As the first roller leaves the track,
the second continues to advance, expelling the
packet of fluid through the pump’s discharge port.
At the same time, a new partial vacuum is created
behind the second roller into which more fluid is
drawn from the inlet port.
Backflow and siphoning do not occur, and the pump
effectively seals the tube when it is inactive. No
valves are needed.
The principle may be demonstrated by squeezing a
soft tube between thumb and finger and sliding it
along: fluid is expelled from one end of the tube
while more is drawn in at the other.
Suitable applications
Peristaltic pumping is ideal for most fluids, including
viscous, shear-sensitive, corrosive and abrasive fluids, and those containing suspended solids. They
are especially useful for pumping operations where
hygiene is important.
Peristaltic pumps operate on the positive displacement principle. They are particularly suitable for
metering, dosing and dispensing applications.
Pumps are easy to install, simple to operate and
inexpensive to maintain.

This symbol, used on the
pump and in this manual,
means: Caution, refer to
accompanying documents.
This symbol, used on the
pump and in this manual,
means: Do not allow fingers

Fundamental work
with regard to transportation, installation,
starting-up, maintenance and repair should be perfor med
by qualified personnel only. The unit
must be isolated from mains power
while work is being carried out. The
motor must be secured against accidental start-up.
1.7 Safety notes and
standards
In the interests of safety, this pump and the tubing
selected should only be used by competent, suitably
trained personnel after they have read and understood this manual, and considered any hazard
involved. If the pump is used in a manner not specified by Watson-Marlow Ltd, the protection provided
by the pump may be impaired.
Any person who is involved in the installation or
maintenance of this equipment should be fully competent to carry out the work. In the UK this person
should also be familiar with the Health and Safety at
Work Act 1974.
There are moving parts inside the pumphead.
Before opening the pumphead guard or track,
ensure that the following safety directions are
followed:
Ensure that the pump is isolated from the
mains power.
Ensure that there is no pressure in the pipeline.
If a tube failure has occurred, ensure that any
fluid in the pumphead has been allowed to
drain to a suitable vessel, container or drain.
Ensure that protective clothing and eye protec-
tion are worn if non-flammable hazardous fluids
are pumped.
Primary operator protection from rotating parts
of the pump is provided by the pumphead safeguard. Note that safeguards differ, depending
on the type of pumphead. See the pumphead
section of this manual.
This pump must be used only for its intended
purpose.
The pump must be accessible at all times to facilitate operation and maintenance. Access points must
not be obstructed or blocked. Do not fit any devices
to the drive unit other than those tested and
approved by Watson-Marlow. Doing so could lead to
injury to persons or damage to property for which
no liability can be accepted.
This product does not comply
with the ATEX directive and
must not be used in explosive
atmospheres.

If hazardous fluids are to be pumped, safety procedures specific to the particular fluid and application
must be put in place to protect against injury to persons.
The exterior surfaces of the pump may get warm
during operation. Do not take hold of the pump
while it is running.
The exterior surfaces of the external DC power supply may get warm during operation. To be safe, let
it cool after use before handling it.
For safety, the pump must not be run without a
pumphead fitted.
Electrical safety
The power supply is Class II insulated: double
insulated with no earth connection.
The pump is Class III: safety extra-low voltage
(SELV).
