The 3-button Keypad Does It All
Use the three buttons under the sliding cover to operate the Pocket Pump
at flows from 20 to 225 ml/min. Set the flow rate in constant flow mode
for single sorbent tube applications, or
set
the back pressure in constant pressure mode for multiple-tube applications.
The Pocket Pump accommodates flow ranges for most sorbent tube and long-duration
detector tube methods. Users may also select the temperature and pressure
scale. Security code protected operating mode and parameters minimizes
tampering and maintains sample validity. The Pocket Pump may be placed
in HOLD
mode at any time without loss of data.
The Pocket Pump operates in either constant flow (single-tube sampling) or constant
pressure (multiple-tube sampling) mode with flows from 20 to 225 ml/min. Operation
is
programmed using
the 3-button keypad or a PC.
A built-in security code system prevents workers from changing
operating state or parameters, ensuring sample validity. Multiple keys
must be pressed to place the pump in HOLD; accidentally pressing
one button will not alter pump operation.
Direct Readout of Data
The large easy-to-read LCD shows direct readouts of sample data that is continuously
updated and may be displayed during sampling at the touch of a button.
Simply press a key to scroll through the sample data that includes flow rate,
air
volume,
temperature
of the incoming air, and sample time. The LCD constantly displays a battery
status icon, and a flashing flow fault icon appears when flow is restricted
or blocked.
Pump-controlled Charging
Never worry about overcharging again. Since advanced electronics are
built into the pump and not the charger, the smart charging battery
system knows how much charging the pump needs; it never overcharges. The
batteries may be charged with the battery charger while the pump is
running. The Pocket Pump may operate indefinitely with the AC
charger/adapter without harm to the battery pack.
The battery charge status icon is constantly displayed. When the pump loses
all charge, it enters SLEEP mode while preserving the historical data in
memory. When fully charged, the NiMH battery provides 12 hours of continuous
use at 200 ml/min with back pressure up to 10 inches of water. Run times
vary with media used.
PC Programmable with DataTrac Software
Use DataTrac Software (optional accessory) and your personal computer to
make the Pocket Pump PC programmable. DataTrac simplifies chain-of-custody
reporting by allowing users to program up to 14 complete running sequences
including delayed start, and timed run. Pump settings can be changed with
the click of a mouse button. DataTrac’s Real-time Monitor window displays
a real-time readout of the Pocket Pump’s
operations including time and sample volume. Lengthy calculations are unnecessary;
DataTrac does it all for you. The advanced information retrieval system is
specifically designed to store data and provide chain-of-custody information.
DataTrac also stores historical data in pump memory that can be retrieved
up to 24 hours after shutdown.
- Program the flow rate, start and stop date, and sample duration.
- Schedule multiple start and stop times.
- Create a sample setup sheet for worker, sample, and analysis information.
- Download historical records of flow rate, sample time, air volume, temperature, and more.
- Print or save a complete report of sample and pump history information.

Pocket Pump for Bag Sampling
SKC offers Pocket Pumps with twin ports — an inlet port and
an exhaust port. The twin port Pocket Pump is ideal for bag sampling
and other applications. Operate Pocket pump from the simple 3-button
integral keypad for
quick grab samples. Or, program Pocket Pump from a PC using DataTrac
for
Pocket Pump Software. Pocket Pump can be programmed for delayed
start and timed runs. The flow range
for the Twin Port Pocket Pump is 20 to 225 ml/min.
Use in non-explosive environments only. This pump is not UL Listed
for intrinsic safety.

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. |
