How to Determine How Many Pump Settings Are On Your Breast Pump?



How to Determine How Many Pump Settings Does Your Pump Have?


Pump settings can be a game-changer on your pumping journey!


Ever wondered how to determine how many settings your pump has? We have created a handy guide below to walk you through calculating your total pump settings based on massage cycles, expression cycles, and vacuum levels.


Pump #1

1 Massage Cycle + 9 Vacuum Levels = 9 settings

1 Expression Cycle + 9 Vacuum Levels = 9 settings

9 + 9 = 18 total setting options


Pump #2

1 Massage Cycle + 9 Vacuum Levels = 9 settings

1 Expression Cycle + 9 Vacuum Levels = 9 settings

1 Alternate/Combo Cycle + 9 Vacuum Levels

9 + 9 + 9 = 27 total setting options


Pump #3

1 Massage Cycle + 5 Vacuum Levels = 5 settings

5 Expression Cycles + 12 Vacuum Levels = 60 settings

5 + 60 = 65 total setting options


Pump #4

5 Massage Cycle + 8 Vacuum Levels = 40

5 Expression Cycles + 8 Vacuum Levels = 40

40 + 40 = 80 total setting options


Pump #5

5 Massage Cycle + 5 Vacuum Levels = 25

5 Expression Cycles + 12 Vacuum Levels = 60 settings

25 + 60 = 85 total setting options


Pump #6

5 Massage Cycle + 5 Vacuum Levels = 25 settings

5 Expression Cycles + 15 Vacuum Levels = 75 settings

25 + 75 = 100 total setting options
