Abstract

A peristaltic pump includes a rotor and a track assembly. The track assembly is spaced from the rotor to receive n tubes therebetween, where n=2m with m a positive integer ≥2. The tubes are manifolded to one another at a discharge port. One of the rotor and the track includes an occlusion surface for each of the n tubes. The occlusion surfaces are located at n different angular positions. The angular offset between the occlusion surfaces offsets pulsation associated with each tube so as to reduce overall pulsation at the discharge port.

A peristaltic pumphead is provided that has a pumping chamber within which is disposed a pressing element for exerting a peristaltic action on a tube extending within the pumping chamber, and an auxiliary chamber which in normal use is a dry chamber. The pumping chamber and the auxiliary chamber are arranged in fluid communication such that liquid which escapes from the tube into the pumping chamber flows from the pumping chamber into the auxiliary chamber.

Abstract

A peristaltic pump is provided comprising a drive unit, a pumphead comprising a pressing element. The pumphead is connectable to the drive unit such that, when connected, the pressing element is driveable by the drive unit to exert a peristaltic action on a tube arranged within the pumphead. The pumphead further comprises an optical sensor, wherein the optical sensor comprises an emitter and a receiver which are mounted on the drive unit and a reflector element mounted on the pumphead. The reflector element is arranged on the pumphead such that when the pumphead is connected to the drive unit, radiation emitted by the emitter is reflected by the reflector element towards the receiver.

Abstract

A peristaltic pump comprises a pump unit including a pump which receives a replaceable tube. The tube has a transponder, for example an RFID tag, which carries data relating to the tube, which can be read by a reader of the pump unit. On the basis of a comparison between the tube data on the RFID tag and control data held in a memory of the reader, the reader permits operation of the pump unit if the tube data is compatible with the control data, but prevents such operation if the tube data is incompatible with the control data, for example indicting that an incorrect tube has been fitted, or the tube is approaching the end of its predicted operational life.

Abstract

A peristaltic pump comprises a pump unit (2) including a pump (14) which receives a replaceable tube (4). In operation, the pump unit (2) applies a peristaltic action to the tube (4) to induce fluid flow between inlet and outlet ends (16, 18) of the tube (4). The tube (4) has a transponder, for example an RFID tag (26), which carries data relating to the tube (4). The pump unit (2) has a reader (28) which is capable of reading the data on the RFlD tag (26). On the basis of a comparison between the tube data on the RFID tag (26) and control data held in a memory of the reader (28), the reader (28) outputs a control signal to operating means of the pump unit (2) which permits operation of the pump unit (2) if the tube data is compatible with the control data, but prevents such operation if the tube data is incompatible with the control data, for example indicting that an incorrect tube (4) has been fitted, or the tube (4) is approaching the end of its predicted operational life.
