Abstract

A pump system can include a tube disposed about a rotor. The rotor can be configured to drive fluid through the tube as the rotor rotates. The tube can be replaceable when the tube fails. The pump system can include a processor configured to determine a predicted number of revolutions of the rotor before the tube fails based on a number n of past tube failure detection (TFD) events. Each past TFD event can have a corresponding nTFD value based at least in part on the number of revolutions the rotor had rotated before the tube failed. When n=0, the predicted number of revolutions can be set to a putative value, and when n=1, the predicted number of revolutions can be based at least in part on the first TFD value and the putative value.
