Because of the back tab and groove found in the Rotor Shaft
design, pumps can be stacked one of top of another and
attached to a common pump motor. Only one motor needs to
be purchased to pump fluid between several different
containers.
The Latch Assembly of the pump allows the Stator to be
easily opened and closed, allowing for quick tubing changes.
Push a spring-loaded area on the Latch to open the Stator.
Push the Stator shut and it snaps into place. The pump
dimensions are set to allow pumping of tubing with a broad
range of sizes. A Clamp Screw actuates a Clamp Plate. This
plate pushes the tubing against two walls in the Lower
Shield, acting to prevent the tubing from creeping. The
Clamp Screw and Clamp Plate are designed with sufficient
travel to prevent “creeping” in a broad range of tube sizes.
8.4 Stacking More than Two Pumps
Optional mounting screws are available to stack two pumps.
However, the number of pumps that can be stacked is limited
only by the motor power available. In general, up to
1
⁄20 horsepower (38 watts) of motor power is required to
operate each pump up to 600 RPM.
