1.1 Instrument description

The 772 Pump Unit is a versatile peristaltic pump for conveying or evacu-
ating liquid media. It was designed specifically for the production opera-
tion and laboratory environment and enables a wide range of applica-
tions. Unlike membrane pumps, pumping organic solvents or liquids with
solids content is no problem for the 772 Pump Unit.
Therefore, the 772 Pump Unit is equally well suited for use in titration, e.g.
for evacuating titration samples with silver halide precipitation and as a
delivery pump in larger automation systems. By using the respective suit-
able tubing material, a wide variety of tasks can be managed.
The flow rate of up to 600 mL/min opens up a wide range of applications.

liquid flows evenly. After a run-in period, correct the setting again if
necessary.

NOTICE

Do not clamp the pump tubing too tightly or apply too much pres-
sure, as this causes greater wear to the pump tubing and the
pump will generate excessive pump pressure.

3.2.2 Installing the inlet tubing and outlet tubing

As the inlet tubing and outlet tubing, two different tubing types are avail-
able. Both tubings are included in the scope of delivery .
￭ PVC tubing (6.1801.120), 2 x 2 m
￭ PTFE tubing (6.1812.000), 1 x 4 m

NOTICE

Which of the two tubings to use depends largely on the solvent used.
PVC tubing is more flexible and has the advantage of making less noise
during the pumping operation. It must be noted that the PVC tubing is
not resistant to solvents.

Install the inlet tubing and outlet tubing as follows:

1 Cut the inlet tubing and outlet tubing to the suitable length.

2 Connect the tubings to the tubing olives of the pump tubing using
union nuts.

5.1 General notes

5.1.1 Care
The 772 Pump Unit requires appropriate care. Excess contamination of the
instrument may result in functional disruptions and a reduction in the life-
time of the sturdy mechanics and electronics.
Spilled chemicals and solvents should be removed immediately. Above all,
the plug connections on the rear of the instrument (in particular the mains
connection socket) should be protected from contamination.

CAUTION

Although this is extensively prevented by design measures, the mains

plug should be unplugged immediately if aggressive media have pene-
trated the inside of the instrument, so as to avoid serious damage to
the instrument electronics. In such cases, Metrohm Service must be
informed.

5.1.2 Maintenance by Metrohm Service

Maintenance of the 772 Pump Unit is best carried out as part of an annual
service, which is performed by specialist personnel of the Metrohm com-
pany. If working frequently with caustic and corrosive chemicals, a shorter
maintenance interval could be necessary.

5.2 Pump tubings

WARNING

Aggressive liquids
Leaking liquids can pose a risk of injury and damage instruments.
￭ Use suitable tubing only.
￭ Regularly check tubing for proper fastening and for damage and
wear.

NOTICE

In every case, the user has sole responsibility with regard to suitability
and safety of pump tubing. Therefore, it is extremely important that
before each use, the safety and effectiveness of tubing is tested based
on application-specific laboratory, field or clinical tests.

5.2.1 Selecting the pump tubing

The most important decision when using peristaltic pumps is the selection
of suitable tubing material. Always use tubings particularly intended for
peristaltic pumps.
The 772 Pump Unit is shipped with PharMed® pump tubing (6.1826.100,
ø 6.4/9.6 mm, see Chapter 5.2.5) made of thermoplastic polypropylene,
which is highly suitable for aqueous media.
If you need other tubings for your application, take care to ensure the fol-
lowing points when evaluating the pump tubings:
￭ Chemical resistance
￭ Pressure build-up in the pump tubing
￭ Sterilizability
￭ Temperature of the pump medium and the environment
￭ Viscosity of the liquid
￭ Permeability of the pump tubing
￭ Demanded flow rate
￭ Tubing dimensions
We recommend using PVC, silicone, Viton® and PharMed® as the tubing
materials. Contact your laboratory dealer for information on suitable prod-
ucts and their data sheets.

16 ￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭ 772 Pump Unit

￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭ 5 Operation and maintenance

5.2.2 Suitability test for tubing materials

Place a piece of the tubing in question for 48 hours in a closed container
filled with the liquid in question. Then examine the piece of tubing for
signs of swelling, embrittlement or other damage.

5.2.3 Tubing dimensions

NOTICE

Use tubing with a wall thickness of 1.6 mm only.

The largest usable inner diameter is 6.4 mm.

5.2.4 Tubing lifetime

The pump tubing has a limited lifetime and therefore has to be replaced
regularly. The following are examples of factors that can influence the life-
time of tubing in peristaltic pumps:
￭ Chemical resistance of the pump tubing
￭ Pump rate (rotational speed)
￭ Properties of the pumped liquid
￭ Outlet pressure
￭ Ambient temperature
￭ Shearing force of the rollers
￭ Twisted or kinked tubing
￭ Tubing too long
￭ Wall thickness of 1.6 mm not complied with

772 Pump Unit ￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭ 17

 5.2 Pump tubings ￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭￭

NOTICE

￭ If the tubing is not tightened sufficiently around the rotor, this has a
negative impact on the lifetime of the tubing, as in this case the tub-
ing tends to fold up. If the tubing is tightened too much, the flow is
restricted.
￭ The tubing will last longer if the pressure clamp is detached when
the pump is not in use.
￭ In order to achieve good repeatability of flow rate following a
change in tubing, it is imperative that you always select the same
tubing length.
Before changing tubing:
￭ Pump all of the liquid out of the tubing so that none remains.
￭ Pull out the connection cable of the peristaltic pump to prevent acci-
dental starting of the pump.
￭ Detach the pressure clamp, open the tubing clamps and remove the
tubing.
