SPECIFICATION: The #26845 Injection Pump features leather packing on the end of the plunger whereas the #26850 Injection Pump has an O-Ring. A felt washer is located at the head cap of both instruments and as it wears, simply tighten the head cap until the vacuum is corrected or the unit quits leaking. It is very important to keep the felt washer lubricated (#10). If it dries out and will not absorb properly it needs to be replaced or leakage will continue. The instruments are manufactured of seamless, nickel plated, ultra durable brass tubing. The exposed end of the plunger has a solid brass, nickel plated, convenient oversized T-handle for easy grasping and operation. The continuous flow design allows pumping on both the in as well as the out stroke of the plunger. The upper and lower adapters are graduated in dimensions to accommodate various diameter size tubing. The tube, when connected to the lower adapter, will only draw and not exude fluids. Parts and service are available upon request.

OBJECTIVE: The continuous flow injection pump is utilized as an aid in removing fluid from an animal’s stomach or in administering fluid treatment for gastrointestinal, rumen or fluid complications.

APPLICATION: The animal should be well restrained before attempting to utilize the injection pump with tubing and/or speculum. Place the tubing parallel to the animal’s side to interpret the approximate length of tubing to mark for identification of tubular length from the mouth to the stomach/rumen area. When using a Frick speculum, place it in the animal’s mouth either from the side or front of the mouth. You need to be cautious and not place the end of the speculum in the throat area as this may cause ulcerations. Pass the tubing through the speculum until it is in the stomach/rumen. Confirm the tubing is located within the stomach/rumen and not in the lungs. There will be a pungent odor emitted from the stomach/rumen and a rumbling or gurgling sound will be present if it is inserted properly. If the tubing is in the lungs you will feel the air flow at the exposed end of the tubing. After insertion is properly accomplished, fit the exposed tubing end over the upper pump attachment located on the hex head (#11). Connect separate tubing to the bottom adapter of the pump (#16) and place one end into the fluid for administration. If you do not use the separate tubing then simply immerse the bottom of the pump into the fluid for administering. The pump will inject fluid on both the in and out movement of the plunger when the hose/hoses are attached as described above. To remove tubing from the stomach/rumen release the tubing from the upper adapter (#17). Upon releasing, plug the open end of the tubing with your thumb and gently remove the tubing and the Frick speculum from the animal. To draw fluid contained in the stomach/rumen, attach tubing to the pump bottom adapter (#16) after the speculum and tubing have been applied as previously described. The bottom attachment will allow drawing or suction away from the stomach/rumen. If the procedure is performed intranasally the speculum is not utilized but the preceding description of application and operation are followed.

After completion of the procedure, clean the hose and instrument well with soap and water and apply mineral oil through the pump to lubricate the plunger O-Ring (#4). Unscrew the head cap (#9) and lift up to expose felt washer (#10) for oil lubrication. Screw back down (#9) and hand tighten.
