Specifications

Flow Range in Constant Flow Mode	20 to 225 ml/min
Accuracy Variance Between LCD Reading and Actual Flow Rate (after calibration)	20 to 225 ml/min ± 5%
Constant Flow Compensation Range (inlet only)	20 to 225 ml/min up to 20 inches water back pressure
Flow Control Accuracy	± 5% of set-point in constant flow after calibration
Pressure Range in Constant Pressure (Multiple-tube Sampling) Mode (inlet only)	1 to 10 inches of water (1.87 to 18.7 mm Hg) at a maximum flow rate of 200 ml/min for 8 hrs (12 hrs if using NiMH battery) 10 to 20 inches water (18.7 to 37.4 mm Hg) at maximum flow rate of 100 ml/min for 8 hrs (12 hrs if using NiMH battery)
Constant Pressure (Multiple-tube Sampling) Mode Accuracy	Pressure reading ± 0.5 in of water (0.25 mm Hg)
Operating Temperature	32° to 113°F (0° to 45°C)
Storage Temperature	-4° to 113°F (-20° to 45°C)
Charging Temperature	40° to 100°F (5° to 38°C)
Operating Humidity	0 to 95% non-condensing
Tubing	Requires 1/4-inch ID tubing
Run Time	With NiMH: 12 hours at 200 ml/min and 10 inches water back pressure, 12 hours at 100 ml/min up to 20 inches water back pressure Run time is 8 hrs at either setting if using NiCad battery Varies with flow rate and sampling media in line Using a charger with AC power: Extend run time
Timer Display Range	1 to 9999 minutes
Timing Accuracy	± 1%
Flow Fault	If the pump is unable to compensate for longer than 15 seconds due to excessive back pressure, the pump enters FLOW FAULT mode. The pump goes into HOLD, the fault icon appears on the display, and the accumulated run time display is frozen and retained. After 5 minutes in flow fault, auto-restart is attempted every 5 minutes until flow is corrected.
