Our return-to-base service turns most units around within five working days, and a loaner pump can be arranged to cover the gap. The pump head is field-serviceable \u2014 replacement diaphragms, valves and filters are stocked.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Downloads<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The full user manual, quick-start card and current data sheet are available to account holders in the <a href=\"https:\/\/ripo.emstaging.dev\/da\/login\/\">customer portal<\/a>, along with firmware updates and past manual revisions.
