Manual operation
•
Switch power on (drive rear panel).
•
Change the set speed by pressing the Ù or Ú key. The 505S speed control ratio is 110:1. This will give a minimum speed of
2rpm for the 220rpm drive and 0.5 rpm for the 55rpm drive.
•
Change direction by pressing the
CW/CCW key. Check the flashing CW/CCW symbol for actual direction setting. (CW :
clockwise
CCW : counterclockwise).
•
Select the maximum speed: press the Ù key and the
Max key together. Select the minimum speed: press the Ú key and the
Max key together.
•
The keypad has a locking facility to avoid resetting or tampering. If the pump is stopped, press
Stop until the padlock symbol
illuminates. If the pump is running, press
Start until the padlock symbol illuminates. All keys will be disabled except for Start
and
Stop. Press these keys until the padlock symbol extinguishes to unlock the keypad.
•
The pump can be set to automatically restart in its operating state set prior to interruption, or set so that after power is
reconnected the pump will remain stopped. To invoke the Auto-restart facility switch off power to the pump at the mains
supply. Press the
Start key down when the mains supply is switched back on until the ! symbol illuminates. Now press Start
to start the pump. This facility can be cancelled by turning the mains supply off and then pressing the
Stop key whilst turning
the mains supply back on. The
! symbol will not be illuminated.
•
Press
Start to start the pump. Press Stop to stop the pump.
Error messages
If a fault condition is detected in the drive unit it will stop, all keys will be disabled, and the display will flash:
Er1
Tachometer fault
Er2
Over temperature error
Er3
EEPROM error
Er4
EEPROM read error
Er5
EEPROM write error
Er6
EEPROM exhausted error. There is a maximum number of times the EEPROM can be written to. If Er6 is displayed,
however, the EEPROM must be replaced.
Er9
RAM corruption error
Care and maintenance
The only scheduled maintenance of the 505S is to inspect the motor brushes and to replace them before their length is less
than 6mm (1/4"). The life of the brushes will depend on the duty of the pump, which is expected to be at least 10,000 hours at
maximum speed. When the pump needs cleaning, remove the pumphead and use a mild solution of detergent in water. Do not
use strong solvents.
If the gearbox is rebuilt you should use 15 ml of the recommended lubricant, which is RD105, this is a SAE 30 mineral oil loaded
with molybdenum disulphide to form a soft fluid grease.

501RL Pumphead
The 501RL pumphead has two spring-loaded working rollers, which automatically compensate for minor variations in tubing
wall thickness, giving extended tube life. The 501RL is set during manufacture to accept tubing with wall thicknesses of between
1.6mm and 2.0mm, and internal diameters of up to 8.0mm. It is equipped with a "tool lockable" guard for increased safety. This
should be locked shut whilst the pump is in use.
