Enhanced
New Configurations Available – Base or Control:
Simple standalone chemical metering or automated control with full signal I/O options.
FLEXFLO® M1
The FLEXFLO® M1 is now available in two configurations, providing a simple way to match the pump to the application. The M1C Control Model includes full I/O for automation, monitoring, and system integration, while the M1B Base Model offers cost-effective manual operation with the same proven pump performance. Both models deliver precise, low-maintenance chemical feed with a self-priming, valve-free peristaltic design and Blue-White’s patented Tube Failure Detection (TFD+) for added protection.
Self-Priming, Valve-Free Peristaltic Design: Smooth chemical feed without vapor lock or loss of prime.
Brushless DC Motor (BLDC): Energy-efficient motor design that supports continuous operation without overheating.
Patented Tube Failure Detection (TFD+): Detects tube failure to stop the pump and help prevent chemical leaks, with added sensing capability for polymers and oil-based media.
Rugged, Weatherproof Enclosure: Sealed NEMA 4X construction for demanding environments with long-term corrosion resistance.
Heavy-Duty Display Shield: Designed to protect the user interface in industrial and outdoor installations.
USB-C Port: Supports fast, field-ready firmware updates.
M12 Connection Platform (Control Model Only): Secure signal connections for automation and monitoring.
Wall-Mount Bracket Option: Supports stable installation and improved service access.
Model Options:
- M1C – Control Model: Full I/O capability for automated process control and monitoring, including 4–20 mA input/output, remote start/stop, flow verification compatibility, and alarm outputs. Ideal for SCADA and PLC integration.
- M1B – Base Model: A streamlined manual-control configuration with Start/Stop, Prime, and Lockout functions. Designed for stand-alone applications where external automation and I/O are not required.
Key Features
Self-priming, low-maintenance operation that cannot vapor lock or lose prime.
Peristaltic design eliminates valves, reducing downtime and maintenance.
TFD+ (Tube Failure Detection) protects against tube ruptures, including oils and polymers.
Heavy-duty display shield protects controls in harsh environments.
Lockout feature prevents tampering for safe operation.
Sealed, weatherproof enclosure with integrated, self-adjusting 100–240V power supply.
User Interface & Controls
Intuitive display for easy output adjustment, priming, and control modes.
Heavy-duty display shield protects the interface in harsh environments.
Built-in Tube Failure Detection (TFD+) senses tube rupture and automatically shuts down.
M1C Control Model
- LED/LCD readout for pump speed, flow, or 4–20 mA input
- Front panel functions: Rate Display, Flow Verification, Remote Start/Stop, Lockout, Prime, Manual Speed Adjust
- Designed for seamless integration with SCADA/PLC systems and easy field setup
- Flow verification input compatible with MS6 and MICRO-FLO sensors
M1B Base Model
- Streamlined interface for manual control
- Essential controls: Prime, Start/Stop, Lockout
Inputs/Outputs
3 signal inputs:
- 4–20 mA (±0.1% full scale)
- Remote start/stop via external switch
- Flow Verification via MS6 or MICRO-FLO sensors (shuts down pump and triggers alarm if no flow detected)
3 signal outputs:
- Motor on/off relay
- Alarm relay (tube rupture or no flow)
- 4–20 mA output
All I/O via M12 connectors for easy, reliable wiring.
USB-C connector for simplified field firmware updates.
Design & Maintenance
Innovative wall-mount bracket snaps pumps securely into place.
Simplified tube replacement: tube number printed on fittings; replacement parts available online.
Durable BLDC motor: energy-efficient, won’t overheat, and designed for long service life.
Low-maintenance operation: no valves to clog, no vapor lock, no lost prime.
Lockout feature prevents tampering.
