Description
The FPU500 FPU5MT series has been discontinued. Please see the FPU2000A as a possible alternative or contact our Flow Engineering department.
The FPU500 Series peristaltic pumps from OMEGA
offer exceptional simplicity, ease of use, and variable
flow capability. A motor turns the pump’s rollers, which
squeeze fluid through precision-bore tubing in a wavelike
motion. The fluid does not come into contact with
the pump; only the outside wall of the tubing does. This
makes these pumps ideal for use in sterile, corrosive,
or general fluid flow operating environments.
The pump is self-priming and non-siphoning. When
one section of the tube fatigues, simply move the tube
along to an unused section and continue pumping. No
tools are required to load the tube. A precision-molded
tubing cavity provides the proper occlusion for the
recommended tubing. A tube clamp holds the tubing
securely in place. Tubing is easily changed without
removing the pump.
One pump can be used for many different applications,
or you can mount two pumps onto the motor. The
pumps work with a wide variety of OMEGAFLEX™
plastic tubing. Vinyl, FKM, Tygon, silicone, Santoprene,
and Norprene® tubing can be purchased in a broad
range of sizes. The standard rotor assembly is made
of stainless steel.
The FPU500 pump can be purchased with an optional
adaptor plate that can be used to mount the pump to a
motor other than the FPU5-MT pump motor. The
pump comes standard with 2 short mounting screws,
used to mount one pump at a time. If you need to
stack two pumps, order long mounting screws.
SPECIFICATIONS Maximum Back Pressure: 20 psi Maximum RPM to Prime: 100 RPM Tube Wall: 1.6 mm (1⁄16") Fluid Temperature Range: -46 to 149°C (-50 to 300°F) Dimensions, Pump: 102 H x 102 W x 57 mm D (4 x 4 x 2¼") Optional Mounting Plate: 76 H x 64 W x 3.2 mm D (3 x 2½ x 1⁄8") Weight, Pump: 408 g (14.4 oz) Optional Mounting Plate: 91 g (32 oz) Maximum Tubing Size: 8 mm (5⁄16") Maximum Tube Durometer: 65 Shore A
The OMEGAFLEXR FPU5-MT pump motor offers
microprocessor control and a digital display, and is
designed to be fully compatible with OMEGA's
FPU500 pump. No mounting plate is needed, just two
mounting screws. A 1⁄10 HP (75 W) motor provides flow
rates of up to 2280 mL/minute. The user enters values
and controls all operations through a convenient
membrane keypad. A dot matrix LCD provides for easy viewing. Calibrating the unit is easy with the
user-friendly control software. Simply select a tubing
size and the desired flow rate, and the pump motor
locks in the required RPM. Select nominal calibration
values stored in ROM (read only memory) or calibrate
via gravimetric or flowmeter measurements. Fluid
temperature may be displayed (using an optional
thermocouple probe). The last flow settings are stored
in memory when the drives are shut off.
