Adjust tube pressure
➜ Turn adjustment knob clockwise till
inner side of wedge aligns with mark
on adjustment scale between gures
1 and 2.
✓ Tube pressure is set.
➜ Repeat with next cassette.
Demount cassette
➜ Push cassette downwards and pull at
clamping side to open hook.
➜ Move cassette upwards while holding
onto clamping side to release hook.
➜ Unhook other side of cassette.

If tube pressure was already adjusted for tube size in previous
operations, adjustment of pressure does not have to be repeated.
Optimize tube pressure
Certain applications require adjustment of tube pressure, for instance to:
▪ vary ow for certain tube size
▪ reduce variation in ow caused by system pressure
▪ extend life time of tubes
➜ Switch rotation on.
➜ Turn adjustment knob counterclockwise to move wedges outwards to higher scale.
✓ Tube pressure is reduced to insufcient.
➜ Slowly adjust by turning knob clockwise till ow and pressure t your requirements.
Secure cassettes
Multi-channel pump heads can be operated with reduced number of cassettes. Reduced
number of cassettes have to be secured to prevent moving.
Both support rods are equipped with an
O-ring to prevent cassettes from moving.
➜ Push O-rings on both sides away from
pump head.
➜ Mount required number of cassettes.
➜ Push 0-Ringe on both sides against
front cassette.
✓ Cassettes are secured.
