A flushing pump including: a pump configured to draw fluid from a reservoir and expel the drawn fluid from a fluid outlet; a processor configured to control operation of the pump; and a remote controller connection port in electrical communication with the processor. The remote controller connection port including: an output system connection point; an input system connection point; a debugging connection point; and a ground connection point held at a reference voltage level. Wherein the processor is configured to output diagnostic information to the output system connection point in response to the debugging connection point receiving a signal at the reference voltage level.

Flushing pump

A peristaltic pump comprises a rotor with rollers and first and second tracks mounted on opposites sides of the rotor. Each track is moveable between a first position adjacent the rotor and a second position spaced from the rotor. The tracks may be linked and moveable together so that as one track moves towards the rotor, the other moves away from the rotor and vice versa. In this way, a single pump can be used to provide two different modes of operation, e.g. pumping liquid when one track is adjacent the rotor and applying suction when the other track is adjacent the rotor.

Peristaltic pump

A pump monitoring system includes a pump with a pump body and a releasable head. An RFID transponder is secured to the pump head and an RFID reader in communication with a processor is provided in the pump body. The transponder receives and stores information relating to operation of the pump head. The reader reads information from the transponder and transmits further information to the transponder. The processor interprets the information from the transponder and controls operation of the pump in response.

Pump monitoring system

A method for capturing an image of a moving object in a rotary system, for example, an image of a rotating blade in a gas turbine, uses an endoscope to form an image of a moving object. One-dimensional line images are captured with a line scan image sensor which is oriented to lie orthogonal to the direction of movement of the image of the moving object past the image sensor. Successive line images are combined to form a composite two-dimensional image of the moving object. A second image may be detected using a second line scan image sensor oriented orthogonal with respect to the direction of movement of the image, to the first line scan image sensor.
