Syringes
The
NE
MESYS XL module must only be used with those syringes that have been
developed especially for this module; other syringes may not withstand the
applied forces applied by the pump unit during operation. This may cause
damages to the syringes and the module or injuries to the operator(s).
ATTENTION
Use the
NE
MESYS XL module only with one of the exclusive syringes
especially developed for it by cetoni GmbH.
EPDM is used as the default sealing material in

with every module. Other materials are available on request.

disassembled. This procedure is explained in detail in section 5.1.3.
