The pump will compute flow rates (based on pump
RPM) for several standard tubing sizes. It can also
be operator-calibrated to compute flow rate for al-

either pump RPM or computed flow rate in liters per
minute. The use of different sizes of tubing makes a
broad range of flow rates available. ..

If the rate of fall is significantly different for one
roller than for the other at the same position
along the pump race, the roller assembly may
need adjustment. Check this by comparing the
rate of fall for both rollers at several positions
along the pump race. If one roller consistently

APPENDIX II

Flow Display Calibration:

Nonstandard Tubing Sizes and
Occlusion Settings

Calibrate the RPM-Flow Rate display with the Variable Flow Constant knob (on
the rear panel) when varying the occlusion setting from that recommended
(see Occlusion Adjustment) or when using tubing of a size not listed on the
Calibration knob scale.
To do this, first determine a flow constant for the size of tubing that will be used
in the pump. Flow constant is the volume of fluid, expressed in liters, that will
be pumped through the tubing in one revolution of the roller assembly (this is
sometimes called ''stroke volume''). Then adjust the RPM-Flow Rate display to
compute flow rates for that flow constant.

Determining the Flow Constant

1. Install tubing of size desired and set occlusion.

2. Place the ends of the tubing into a filled reservoir and start the pump.
3. Switch the RPM-Flow Rate display to RPM mode and adjust the speed until
the display shows a major increment (e.g. 25 or 50).
4. When flow stabilizes, pump fluid for a measured period of time into a
graduated vessel. Take note of the time elapsed and the fluid volume
pumped. (The longer the period, the more accurate will be the measure-
ment.)
NOTE: For increased accuracy of this calibration procedure, try to simulate
expected venous and arterial pressures. Place the fluid reservoir at the same
level as the blood source (the oxygenator or other reservoir) during surgery,
and place the graduated vessel at the approximate height of the operating
table. Use the actual extracorporeal circuit1 if possible! for this testing (espe-
cially important when varying occlusion settings) to simulate expected input
and output pressures.

17
APPENDIX II (Continued)
Determining the Flow Constant (Continued)

5. Repeat steps 2, 3, and 4, and record the flow volume and elapsed time for
several RPM settings. (A chart is provided below.)
6. Determine the flow rate at each RPM setting by dividing the flow volume (in
liters) by the elapsed time {in minutes).
7. Determine the flow constant for the tubing by dividing flow rate (Step 6) by
the RPM.
For example, if 2 liters are pumped in 30 seconds (.5 minute) at 100 RPM,
ftow constant is calculated:
2 liters
.5 min.
= 4 L/Min (flow rate - Step 6)

4 L/Min
- .04 (flow constant - Step 7)
100 RPM
8. Make several such calculations at a number of RPM settings and average
the results. Use the chart provided (or make several copies of the chart to
use with several tubing sizes) to record the findings.
The following table lists the flow constants for the standard tube sizes which
appear on the scale of the calibration knob. Use these to check calculations
and tube setup for accuracy.
Flow Constants - Standard Tube Sizes and Occlusion Settings
'

Calibration Knob
Setting Flow Constant
1/4 .013
3/s .0277
½· .0458
5/s .0633
NOTE: In actual use, the ftow rate displayed on the pump will probably differ
from those derived mathematically, and from those actually achieved.

Setting the Display

1. With the RPM-Flow Rate display in RPM mode and the Calibration knob set
to VFC, start the pump and adjust its speed to some major increment (such
as 50, 100, or 200 RPM).
2. Switch to UMin. Adjust the Variable Flow Constant knob until the flow rate
displayed equals the product of the pump RPM and the flow constant
(RPM x flow constant = flow rate).
For example: With a flow constant of .04, as above, the pump speed of:
50 RPM, set display at 2.00 L/Min ( 50 x .04);
100 RPM, set display at 4.00 L/Min (100 x .04);
200 RPM, set display at 8.00 L/Min (200 x .04).
3. Read the pump-computed flow rate from the RPM-Flow Rate display at any
pump speed.

NOTE: Using the flow constant thus derived, recalibrate the Variable Flow
Constant setting before each use. (This adjustment does not affect preset dis-
play calculations for several standard tubing sizes.)

(See schematic 13624000)

The Motor Control PC Board acts as the power supply board

for the pump. It also provides the DC voltage needed to
control motor speed in conjunction with the Speed Control
knob mounted on the control panel.

DESCRIPTION

The Motor Control PC Board contains the following circuitry:

A. Motor Speed Servo

(Refer to the System Block Diagram Print 15647)

This circuit compares a signal proportional to the

<O
motor speed to a signal representing the desired speed.
The difference between these two signals is fed to a
compensating circuit for stabilization, and then to an
SCR control IC. A timing pulse synchronized with the
mains frequency is generated from the output of this
device. This timing pulse turns on an SCR (connected
to the mains) which supplies power to the motor. The OCIP#
Motor Speed Servo is designed so that the control of

The V d signal is generated by IC203A. A signal representing V is fed to 1203A through R-204. A
signarPifoportional to motor current is generated across al ohm rW~fgfor R243, and is scaled by R202 and R203
to generate the (IR) mo t or term.

The output signal of IC203A represents the motor speed. It is compared with the signal representing the
desired speed (through R227 and R209) at the input of the compensating circuit IC203C. The output signal of
the compensating circuit is fed to the SCR control IC (IC204). The timing signal from the control IC is
connected to the SCR(201) through a pulse transformer T202. This arrangement controls the SCR and forces the
actual motor speed to be equal to the demand.

Board Level Calibrations'

There are two adjustments associated with the speed servo R227 and R203.
1. R227 sets the maximum pump speed' (250-255 RPM) when the Speed Control knob is rotated fully clockwis·e)
~ 2. R.203 is used to set the scaling of the (IR)· t term of the speed voltage. A calibrated load torque·
/,& of 10-15 in.-lb. (1.1-1.6 n-m) should be apW£iia on the pump and R203\adjusted so that when the speed
of the pump with no load is 100 RPM, the speed will drop to 96-98 RPM.

B• OversEeed Circuitry

The overspeed protection circuitry senses overspeed. The configuration of the overspeed detection circuitry
......
is described below:
0

The signal from the Opto-Tachometer PC Board (whose frequency represents the pump speed) is squared up by a
comparator (IC205B), and is shaped by a delay multivibrator (IC206). The pulse waveform from the delay
multivibrator is averaged by a low pass filter (R235 and C216) to generate a positive voltage proportional to
pump speed. The sum of this signal and the negative voltage from IC205A represents the demand signal. The
result is a sum of the outputs of resistors R235 and R236, which are part of the low pass filter.

The error signal from the low pass filter feeds a comparator (IC205C), and the output of the comparator is
filtered (R239, C217). The signal is inverted and buffered by IC20SD. The output of the buffer controls a
relay drive transistor (Q202).

ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN
SHEET PART a DWG. NUMBER REV.

e3:ps3:1/20/84:2 2 OF 4 15650000 A
 The operating principle of the overspeed circuit is as follows:

When the error signal from the filter is positive and greater than the threshold voltage (approximately
+.SV) at the negative input of the comparator, the pump is rotating faster than the demand. This produces
a positive voltage at the output of the comparator. After filtering and buffering, the signal drives the
emitter of Q202 to -12 volts which removes power from the DC relay K201. When relay K201 is de-energized,
the pump will stop.

When the error signal at the input of the comparator is below the threshold voltage, the pump is tracking
the demand. The emitter of Q202 is at ground potential. This keeps K201 in an energized state.

Board Level Calibratio.n

There is one adjustment for board calibration of the circuit (R229).

A signal of 560 Hz, introduced at Pll-1, represents the output of the Tachometer PC Board when the roller
am assembly is rotating at 280 RPM. A signal of this value occurs with +12 volts on P84 (the nominal
voltage when the Speed Co,ntrol knob is fully clockwise).

Adjust R229 so that the voltage between pins 5 and 6 of the comparator IC205C is -5 millivolts, •

...... c. Relay ~.ircuitry

There are a total of three relays which are located on the Motor Control PC Board:

Relaz. Type of Current

'
1 • K202 AC
2. K203 AC
3. K201 DC (controlled by the overspeed circuit)

When the pump is set in the forward or reverse mode and an overspeed condition has not been sensed, K202 is
energized.

FORWARD MODE: K202 is latched in the energized state through contacts of relay K201. These contacts open
when an overspeed is sensed. K202 unlatches, and stops the pump; K202 also unlatches when
the STOP switch is depressed.

REVERSE MODE: Relay K202 is energized when the

reverse switch is depressed. Relay
K203 connects the armature of the motor
to operate in reverse (contacts K203A,

Relay K201 is the forward mode relay. It is energized when the pump is set in the forward mode and an
overspeed condition is not sensed. It is latched through the transistor (Q202) of the safety circuit. When
the pump speed tracks the demand, the emitter of Q202 will be at ground voltage. This keeps K201 latched. In
an overspeed condition the emitter of Q202 becomes approximately -12 volts and K201 becomes de-energized,
placing the pump in the stop mode.
'

D. Power Supply and Field Circuit Regulator

The power supply is a conventional transformer powered (T201) full wave rectifier, which produces positive and
negative voltages. These voltages are fed to a +12 volt regulator (IC201)1 and a -12 volt regulator (IC202);. The
output of the regulators powers the low voltage circuitry of the Motor Control, Logic, Display, and the
Opto-Tachometer circuitry.

The field current for the motor is obtained by rectifying the mains (DB202) to receive a high DC voltage. This
voltage supplies power to a single transistor (Q203) current regulator. The field is connected to the collector of
the transistor. The collector current is determined by the voltage on the base and the emitter resistor R242,
i.e.:
,..., VB
Ic = If= R242
..
N
The base voltage is generated by the zener diode (D215) and the forward biased temperature compensating diodes
(D219, 220, 221).

The Logic PC Board takes a signal from the Tachometer PC

Board and supplies the Display PC Board with information it

 When the pump is set to display flow rate, pin 12 of IC114 is high (B-9 = low). The frequency of the signal on
A-13 is equal to twice the flow in ml/min. It is then halved by 1Cll3A and sent to the Display PC Board via Pl-9.

The following relationship

•
is required to generate a signal whose frequency is twice the flow in ml/min:

Flow (ml/min)= Pump Speed (RPM) x Tube Constant (ml/rev) or Fl= N x C

The signal on IC113-13 has a frequency (Hz) equal to twice the flow (ml/min). This frequency is generated by
implementing the equation above with rate multipliers (IC-110, 111, 112).

The rate multiplier's output is a wavefom signal with a frequency proportional to the product of the frequency of
an input waveform and an input number (pump speed signal). The input waveform has a frequency proportional to the
selected tube constant (C), and the input number is equal to 2N. The input number (pump speed signal) is obtained
by counting the tachometer signals (frequency= 2N) for one second with BCD counters (IClOSA, IC102B), and storing
the number in latches IC-107, 108, and 109. This counting cycle is repeated each second in order to keep the
number current.

The tube constant signal to the rate multipliers is obtained from an oscillator (!Cl) located on the Display PC
Board. Its frequency is established by the tube selector switch (calibration knob) Sl.

The frequency of the output signal from the rate multipliers is determined by the following:
....
(J't
Frequency (output)= (frequency input x input number) x 1/K
= KC x 2N x 1/K
= 2N x C

The number K is the scale factor of the rate multipliers. For three BCD rate multipliers K = 1000.

 One position of the calibration knob (VFC) allows use of tubing with IDs other than those listed in Table I. The
frequency adjustment for this position is located at the rear of the pump. The flow constant for different tubes
must be determined by measuring actual pump output into a graduated cylinder.

The one second timing required for counting and latching the pump speed is obtained from a crystal oscillator and
count-down circuitry as indicated below:

 When the pump is serviced (minimum every six months), the specifications listed below must be checked. The
preoperational checks, operational check procedures, and occlusion adjustment procedure in the operators manual
should also be performed before and after the pump is serviced.

1. Check current leakage volt lines according to ES 12092000 (nominal 100 and 115 volt lines - maximum 50
microamps; nominal 220 volt lines - maximum 100 microamps).

2. Torque measured for belt tension should read between 50-70 in-lbs (5.6-7.9 n-m) when belt slippage occurs.

3. Make sure the 8 tube guide roller screws are torqued according to Print 14308, Sheet 1 (7 in-lb, .8 n-m).

4.. Make sure the 4 shoulder screws are torqued according to Print 14308, Sheet 1 (17 in-lb, 1.9 n-m).

5. Check the casting run-out (T •. I.R.). Make sure the concentricity of the casting race relative to the pump
head shaft does not vary by more than .0015 inch (.0381 mm).

6. Check the Roller-to-Roller. Make sure the distance from the outside edge of one roller to the pump head
shaft does not vary from that distance for the second roller by more than .0015 inch (.0381 mm) • ·"

7. Check the overspeed shutoff circuitry as follows:

A. Set Speed Control knob to ''OO'' RPM.Put pump in FORWARD mode.

B. Insert emergency hand crank into top of roller arm assembly.
c. Manually turn roller arm assembly at 30 RPM± 5 RPM. The pump should continue running at any speed
below 30 RPM± 5 RPM.
D. Increase speed by turning roller arm assembly faster. The pump should shut off between 36 and 70 RPM.

NOTE: Speed must be held steady 3 to 5 seconds before the overspeed circuitry will shut off the pump (due
to a lag intentionally built into the circuitry).
