(Patents Pending, Quality Assured ISO 9001, RoHS compliant)
Introduction
The RS PRO M510 Micropump is a high-quality miniature pump designed for liquids. It offers high efficiency, a compact size, and low weight. Its robust construction and wide temperature tolerance ensure reliable performance even in demanding environments. The Micropump is designed for quick and easy installation in confined spaces, making it suitable for a wide array of laboratory, prototype, and production equipment.
Electrical Connection
The M510 Micropump utilizes sensorless brushless motor technology and requires an external electronic driver circuit. RS part numbers 1253555, 1253556, and 1253557 are supplied with the integrated EQi-M brushless driver. RS part numbers 8170784, 8170781, and 8170772 are pump-only units and necessitate a separate driver.
Motor Type: 3-wire DC Sensorless Brushless Motor
Supply Voltage: 6-28V (compatible with EQi-M driver)
RS Micropumps Electronic Driver Units
For applications where a dedicated brushless motor controller is unavailable, RS recommends the EQi-M driver board. This compact and lightweight device connects in-line with the pump's wiring. The EQi-M provides speed and flow control through an on-board potentiometer or an external 0-4V analogue signal. It supports a broad input voltage range of 6-28V, allowing it to effectively monitor and regulate pump speed.
Materials
Wetted materials comprise: 316 Stainless Steel, PEEK, Ertalyte, FKM, and Ertacetal. Nickel is also used.
Tubing & Connectors
The pump's connectors are engineered to accommodate semi-flexible tubing with an 8.0mm internal diameter (I.D.).
Flow Direction: The standard flow direction is indicated by arrows on the pump housing. The provided diagrams illustrate the pump with its connectors, showing the typical flow path from the inlet to the outlet, designed for 8.0mm I.D. tubing.
Notes on Operation
- The M510 series Micropumps require filling with liquid (priming) before they can be operated.
- Caution: Do not operate the Micropump dry. Always ensure the pump is primed prior to use.
- Ingress Protection: The standard pump features an IP45 protection rating.
