ASTRALPOOL Peristaltic Pump 12L/H 1 bar (Model 57178) Instruction Manual

1. Isingeniso

1.1 Umkhiqizo Uphelileview

The ASTRALPOOL Peristaltic Pump, Model 57178, is designed for precise fluid dosing applications. This pump features continuous flow regulation, adjustable from 0% to 100% of its maximum capacity. Flow adjustment is managed by varying the motor speed via a potentiometer conveniently located on the pump's front panel. It is capable of delivering up to 12 liters per hour at a maximum pressure of 1 bar.

1.2 Ulwazi Lokuphepha

Please read and understand all safety instructions before installing, operating, or performing maintenance on this pump. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury or equipment damage.

• Always disconnect power before performing any installation or maintenance.
• Ensure the pump is installed in a dry, well-ventilated area, protected from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Qinisekisa ukuthi ukunikezwa kwamandla kagesi voltage matches the pump's requirements (230 Volts AC).
• Do not operate the pump with damaged cables or connections.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling chemicals or performing maintenance.

2. Ukusetha nokufakwa

2.1 Ukufaka Iphampu

Select a stable, vertical surface for mounting the pump. Ensure there is adequate space around the pump for ventilation and access for maintenance. Use appropriate fasteners to secure the pump firmly to the chosen surface.

2.2 Ukuxhunywa kukagesi

The pump requires a 230 Volts AC power supply. Connect the pump to a grounded electrical outlet. It is recommended to use a dedicated circuit with appropriate overcurrent protection. Consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about electrical connections.

2.3 Fluid Connections

Identify the inlet and outlet ports on the pump. The inlet port typically draws fluid from the source, and the outlet port delivers the fluid. Connect appropriate tubing to these ports, ensuring all connections are secure and leak-free. Use tubing compatible with the fluid being pumped and capable of withstanding the operating pressure.

3. Iziqondiso Zokusebenza

3.1 Ukuqala kokuqala

1. Ensure all fluid connections are secure and the pump is properly mounted.
2. Verify that the fluid source is available and the discharge line is correctly routed.
3. Plug the pump into the power supply.

3.2 Flow Regulation

The pump's flow rate is adjusted using the potentiometer located on the front panel. Rotate the potentiometer clockwise to increase the flow rate and counter-clockwise to decrease it. The flow can be continuously regulated from 0% to 100% of the pump's maximum capacity (12 L/H).

4. Isondlo

4.1 Isondlo Esijwayelekile

• Regularly inspect the tubing for signs of wear, cracks, or blockages. Replace tubing as necessary.
• Check all connections for leaks and tighten if required.
• Keep the pump's exterior clean and free from dust and debris.

4.2 Ukuhlanza

To clean the pump, first disconnect it from the power supply. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. If the internal tubing requires cleaning, follow the manufacturer's guidelines for flushing the system with an appropriate cleaning solution, ensuring it is compatible with the pump materials and the fluids being handled.
