Abstract: A method of calibrating a pump system can include providing a pump, calibrating a pump input with an input device connected to the pump, and calibrating a pump output with an output device connected to the pump. Calibrating the pump input can include selecting a first input signal value, generating a transmitted input signal corresponding to the first input signal value, and setting a nominative pump input value to the first input signal value. Calibrating the pump output can include receiving a received output signal outputted from the pump, and setting a nominative pump output value to the first input signal value.

Abstract: A diaphragm pump assembly can include a pump drive chamber, a first pump diaphragm chamber, and a second pump diaphragm chamber. The assembly can include a pump motor configured to rotate a motor shaft extending into the pump drive chamber. The assembly can include a cam connected to the motor shaft and configured to rotate in response to rotation of the motor shaft. The assembly can include a drive yoke having a yoke frame and a yoke pocket having a first wall and a second wall parallel and opposite the first wall. First and second pistons can connect to the drive yoke and to first and second diaphragms, respectively. The diameter of the cam can be less than and within 5% the width of yoke pocket and the yoke can be configured to move the pistons along a straight line.

Abstract: A quick mounting bracket for a pump is provided. The bracket includes a flexible handle that moves relative to stabilizer tabs. The bracket has ramped surfaces that guide a portion of the pump housing into a receiving slot of the bracket. A hinge of the handle biases the handle away from the pump such that the handle is driven to overlap the portion of the pump housing that seats into the receiving slot, thereby locking the pump onto the bracket until the handle is move to clear receiving slot and allow the pump to be removed from the bracket.

Abstract: A lockout system for a metering pump is provided. The lockout system can include a user interface that is used to switch the pump between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration. In the locked configuration, the operation of the pump cannot be adjusted through the user interface. In the unlocked configuration, the operation of the pump can be adjusted through the user interface. The lockout system can include a passkey notice that provides information regarding how to use the user interface to switch the pump between the locked and unlocked configurations.

Abstract: A tubing assembly is provided that can comprise a plurality of tubes or lumens that can be disposed within a head of a peristaltic pump. The tubing assembly can provide a flow rate or volume capacity that is generally equal to or greater than that achieved with a comparable prior art tube while operating at higher pressures than that possible using the prior art tube. Further, in accordance with some embodiments, the tubing assembly can achieve a longer working life than a comparable prior art tube, and the load on the pump motor can be reduced such that the pump life is increased and/or a larger pump motor is not required to achieve such advantageous results.
