1.4 Connecting to your Multi-Flo Analyser
The Rigel Multi-Flo is a high precision instrument that can provide real-time and high
accurate flow measurements subject to following the procedures advised below;"
To obtain the highest level of accuracy, we calibrate our Multi-Flo infusion pump
analysers using the following practices and procedures;
1. Ensure that the measurements done by the Rigel Multi-Flo are done using
distilled or de-ionised water only.
2. To prevent the formation of microscopic air bubbles in the pump chamber, keep
the Multi-Flo unit primed unless draining is absolutely necessary.
3. If the Multi-Flo has been drained, to clear any microscopic air bubbles in the
pump and pipework that could affect results, prime with 25ml Isopropyl Alcohol,
followed by 50ml deionised water to flush the alcohol from the system.
4. Due to fluid dynamics the inlet and outlet pipe length, diameter and material can
affect the results. For best results, avoid any in-line valves or other constrictions
and use 1000mm of 1/4 OD/ 1/8 ID tubing on the inlet and 300mm on the outlet.
Semi-flexible tubing, such as Tygon, will provide the best results. See setup
diagram below;

300mm 1/4" OD 1/8" ID 1000mm 1/4" OD 1/8" ID NB: Tubing should not drop below
Tygon tubing or similar Tygon tubing or similar level of work surface
Ensure the flow direction is as per diagram above. The flow inlet is the top connection
whilst the flow outlet is positioned below the inlet for each channel.

Ensure that the internal diameter of the outlet tubing is 3.2mm or greater.
Ensure that the length of outlet tubing is kept as short as reasonably practicable.
1.5 Priming the Channels
