Replacing the Fuse
In the event of a power surge, the fuse in the syringe pump may burn out. If a fuse burns out,
the pump will be unable to receive power.
Chemyx syringe pumps come with a complimentary backup fuse inside the pump. Please
review the following instructions for accessing the fuse holder and replacing the burned-out
fuse.
1. Disconnect the power cable from the back of
the syringe pump and locate the three-prong
power plug on the back of the pump. The fuse
holder is located directly underneath the power
plug.
2. Slide out the fuse holder from the power plug.
There is a small indentation on the bottom
edge of the power plug. A small coin or
flathead screwdriver may be needed to
remove the fuse holder from the pump. The
fuse holder should contain two fuses. The
exposed fuse is the active fuse and would be
the one to replace in the case of a blown fuse.
3. Remove the broken fuse from the active slot in
the holder and discard appropriately.
4. Remove the back-up fuse from the plastic
casing by using the burned-out fuse (or similar
item) to carefully push the back-up fuse out of
the casing. Place the back-up fuse in the
active slot. Ensure that the fuse is centered
within the active slot.
5. [Optional] Store a brand new fuse (5mm 200mA 250V glass fuse) in the plastic casing to
act as a future replacement.
6. Insert the fuse holder under the power socket of the pump.
7. Plug in the power cord and power on the pump to ensure correct installation.
