Description

The QuickTake®30 Sample Pump is a portable baery-powered air sampling

pump that maintains constant airﬂow from 10 to 30 L/min for use with impactors,

spore trap cassees such as VersaTrap®, asbestos cassees, microvacuum cassees,

or other samplers requiring ﬂows up to 30 L/min. A diaphragm pump operating

with a closed loop ﬂow control system, the QuickTake 30 maintains true constant

ﬂow. The QuickTake 30 features a programmable timer that provides up to eight

programmable run time presets of 1 to 999 minutes, continuous run with manual

shut-oﬀ, or intermient sampling. A rechargeable lithium-ion baery pack provides

eﬀective run times (see Performance Proﬁle - Typical Cumulative Run Time on page 4).

* Sampling times when using spore traps are usually ≤10 min. SKC

recommends reducing length of sample time when using a 30 L/min

ﬂow rate to prevent overloading the media.

baery performance may vary.

The AC charger/adapter can be used to extend baery run

time, but it is not a baery eliminator. Therefore, it will

not provide indeﬁnite run times.

Battery Operation

Battery Status Indicators

Full charge; approximately 75% to 100% baery capacity

remaining

Baery is charged enough to operate the pump;

approximately 25% to 75% baery capacity remaining.

Baery charge is low (charge baery); approximately

1% to 25% baery capacity remaining.

Low Baery Fault. Pump will stop running, beep, and

go to sleep in 10 seconds.

Charging the Battery

For a complete charge, ensure the

pump is not running during charging.

Insert the charger plug into the jack on

the pump and the charger into a wall

outlet. A red LED will ﬂash on the

pump display to indicate the unit is

charging. When charging is complete,

the LED will stop flashing and the

pump will go to sleep. The baery charges completely in ﬁve hours. The QuickTake

30 can be operated using AC power. See Operating from AC Power on page 9.

After charging the baery pack, it is good practice to run the pump for

approximately 5 minutes before calibrating. This ensures the baery is in more

steady-state conditions and improves the agreement in pre and post-sampling

calibrations.

• The pump will not sleep during charging. Connecting a sleeping pump to the

charger will wake it up from sleep.

• The AC charger/adapter can be used to extend baery run time, but it is not

a baery eliminator. Therefore, it will not provide indeﬁnite run times.

• Do not operate or charge the pump in hazardous locations.

• Use only the SKC-approved charger for this pump. Use of an unapproved

charger may damage the baery and the pump and voids any warranty.

• The baery pack may be kept on the SKC-approved charger for an indeﬁnite

time.

• Ensure proper orientation of the charging cable before plugging it into the

charging jack. Improper orientation/contact will short circuit the baery and

voids any warranty.

• Short-circuiting the baery pack will render it immediately inoperative.

• Failure to follow warnings and cautions voids any warranty.

See www.skcinc.com/instructions/1756.pdf for more information on

SKC pump batteries.

Removing and Installing a Battery

1. With the back of the pump facing you (serial number

at boom left), use a small ﬂat-head screwdriver

(tweaker) to pry up and remove two strip panels

from the left and right ends of the back of the case.

Removing the pressure-ﬁt panels will reveal four

safety screws.

2. Use a Phillips head or ﬂat-head screwdriver to

loosen the four safety screws.

3. Lift oﬀthe back of the pump case.

4. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to loosen the

two screws (with washers) from the baery

bracket. Use forceps to remove screws and

washers from the case; set the screws aside.

Do not lose washers.

5. Lift the bracket slightly, slide it toward the

case handle, and lift it out of the case.

6. Detach the baery

from the baery

harness by pressing on

the connector tab (left

side of connector) and

pulling both sides of

the connector apart.

7. Using a full-size ﬂat-head screwdriver, insert its tip underneath the baery

end nearest the case handle. Maneuver the screwdriver to apply an upward

force to the boom of the baery until the double-sided tape adhesive on its

boom releases its hold and the baery can be lifted from the case.

8. Aach the new baery to the baery harness connector by aligning the two

sides of the connector and pressing them together until they click.

9. Install the baery.

a. If installing a new baery (Cat. No. P75689), remove the protective strip

from double-sided mounting tape on the boom of the new baery to

expose adhesive.

b. If reinstalling the existing baery, remove as much of the previous

adhesive as possible from the boom of the baery. Remove the protective

strip from one side of a new two-inch piece of double-sided mounting

tape (available from SKC as Part No. 51872) and apply to the boom of

the baery. Remove the protective strip from the tape’s remaining side to

expose adhesive.

Ensure the battery harness wires on battery pack are facing away from the

case handle before inserting battery in case.

10. Align the baery in case (as shown above) before allowing the boom of the

baery to come into contact with and adhere to the pump base plate. Press

down gently to ensure the baery pack adheres to the base plate.

11. From the case handle side of the pump, slide the baery bracket into place

until two openings in the bracket are aligned with the two screw holes in the

pump base plate.

12. Use needlenose pliers to align the two screws with washers with the screw

holes. Tighten screws using a small ﬂat-head screwdriver.

13. Replace the back of the pump case (serial number label should be in the lower

left corner) and tighten the four safety screws.

14. Replace the two strip panels and press them down until they are completely

installed.

STOP

Operating from AC Power

The QuickTake 30 may be run using AC power with the baery and AC

charger/adapter. Insert the charger plug into the jack on the pump and the

charger into a standard wall outlet. Operate the pump.

Cautions, Warnings, and Notes

• The charge light on the LED will ﬂash if the baery is charging during AC

operation.

• The AC charger/adapter can be used to extend baery run time, but it

is not a baery eliminator. Therefore, it will not provide indeﬁnite run

times.

• Do not operate or charge the pump in hazardous locations.

• Use only the SKC-approved baery and charger for this pump. Use of an

unapproved baery and/or charger may damage the baery and the pump

and voids any warranty.

• To reduce risk of injury, ﬁre, or electric shock, always follow basic safety

precautions when using this product.

• Do not submerge the pump or subject it to any liquids.

• Protect the sample pump from weather when in use outdoors.

• Tampering with the baery pack or using a repaired or rebuilt baery

pack voids any warranty and UL Listing for intrinsic safety.

• Do not open, disassemble, short circuit, crush, incinerate, or expose the

baery to ﬁre or high temperatures.

• Failure to follow warnings or cautions voids any warranty.
