5.3 Tubing Installation

The pump comes with a KK1800 pump head. To install or replace tubing:

1. Open the pump head cover.
2. Carefully insert the tubing (e.g., S18# silicone tubing) into the pump head, ensuring it sits correctly within the rollers and guides.
3. Close the pump head cover securely.

5.4 External Control Connections (Optional)

The pump supports various external control methods via Interface A and Interface B on the rear panel. Refer to the pinout diagram for correct wiring.

6.3 Mode Selection

From the main screen, you can select different operating modes:

• Continuity Mode: For continuous liquid transfer at a set flow rate.
• Ration Mode (Volumetric): For dispensing specific volumes of liquid.
• Remote Mode: For controlling the pump via external signals (e.g., RS485, analog input, foot switch).

6.4 Setting Flow Rate and Volume

Navigate to the desired operating mode (e.g., Continuity or Ration) on the touchscreen. Use the 'Edit' function to adjust parameters such as flow rate (ml/min) or dispensing volume (ml). Confirm your settings and press 'Start' to begin operation.

6.5 Calibration

Regular calibration ensures accurate flow rates. Access the 'Calibration' tab on the touchscreen to perform calibration procedures according to the on-screen instructions. This typically involves dispensing a known volume and adjusting the calibration factor.

6.6 System Settings

The 'System' tab allows configuration of various pump parameters, including:

• Information: View device details.
• Pedal: Configure foot pedal functionality.
• Liquid Level Detection: Set up external liquid level sensors.
• Direction: Adjust pump rotation direction.
• Pumps and Tubes: Manage tubing types and pump head configurations.
• Suck Back: Configure suck-back function to prevent dripping.

7. Maintenance

7.1 Tubing Replacement

Peristaltic tubing is a consumable item and requires periodic replacement. The lifespan of the tubing depends on the liquid being pumped, flow rate, and operating duration. Replace tubing when signs of wear, such as flattening or cracking, become apparent to maintain accuracy and prevent leaks.

7.2 Cleaning

Wipe the exterior of the pump with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water. Ensure no liquid enters the internal components.

7.3 General Care

Keep the pump free from dust and debris. Store in a dry, temperate environment when not in use. Avoid dropping or subjecting the pump to strong impacts.
