(c) Optimized Occlusion Settings
Some applications require additional fine-tuning of the occlusion setting to vary the flow rate for a particular tubing, to
reduce flow variations caused by changes in system pressure, or to increase tubing life.
1. Adjust the Occlusion Wedges as described in the preceding table.
2. Refine this setting, depending upon your objectives:
NOTE: To Maximize Tubing Life
While running the pump, simply reduce the adjusted occlusion setting by turning the Occlusion Adjustment Knob
counterclockwise to move the wedges to a higher setpoint scale number (toward 5). Continue turning the knob
counter-clockwise until the flow drop-off or the pressure sensitivity becomes unacceptable, then turn knob slightly
clockwise.
NOTE: To Reduce or Eliminate Flow Drop-Off Rate with Pressure Fluctuations
While running the pump alternate the backpressure between the expected high and low values and increase the
adjusted occlusion setting. Turn the Occlusion Adjustment Knob clockwise to move the wedges to a lower setpoint
scale number (toward 1) until the flow drop-off is minimized.
NOTE: To Fine Adjust the Flow Rate
Increase or decrease the occlusion value to vary the flow.

MAINTENANCE

No maintenance required. Wipe Pump with a clean cloth and a mild detergent. Never immerse nor use excessive fluid.
