4.12.2 Mode of operation for the peristaltic pump
The peristaltic pump is used for pumping sample and auxiliary solutions. It
can rotate in both directions.
The peristaltic pump pumps liquids based on the displacement principle.
The pump tubing is clamped between the rollers (14-5) and the tubing
cartridge (14-2). During operation, the peristaltic pump drive rotates the
roller hub (14-6), so that the rollers (14-5) advance the liquid in the pump
tubing.
