Note: If you purchased the standard Eufy S1 (not the Pro version), the charging case is not included.

If your pump was purchased brand new and anything is missing, contact Eufy customer support as soon as possible. They are generally quick to replace missing or faulty components.

If you’re using a second hand pump, it’s best to replace all silicone parts before use, including the duckbill valves, diaphragms, flanges, and inserts. These parts wear down over time and can affect suction, milk output, and hygiene. Starting with fresh silicone parts helps ensure better performance and peace of mind.

How To Assemble the Eufy S1 Pro

Getting your Eufy S1 Pro wearable breast pump setup is simple once you’re familiar with the parts, but making sure everything is properly assembled is key for strong suction, leak-free pumping, and overall performance.

When you first unbox your Eufy S1 Pro, it may come partially assembled, which can be helpful in showing how the pieces fit together. However, before your first use, it’s important to fully disassemble all the parts and give them a thorough clean to maintain proper hygiene.

Here are my tips to keep your pump clean and help preserve milk quality:

• Clean Hands First: Always wash your hands well before handling any pump parts.
• Disassemble After Each Use: Take apart all components that come in contact with milk—such as the flange, valve, diaphragm, and collection cup—and wash them in warm, soapy water. Rinse well and allow them to air dry completely.
• Daily Sterilization: Sterilize all milk-contact parts at least once a day by boiling them, using a steam sterilizer, or a cold water sterilizing solutions such as Milton.
• Keep the Motor Dry: The pump motor should never be submerged or rinsed under water. Wipe it gently with a clean, dry cloth if needed.
• Store Carefully: Once everything is clean and dry, reassemble or store your parts in a clean, dust-free container until your next session.

Once you’ve completed the cleaning and drying process, you’re ready to reassemble your Eufy S1 Pro for your next pumping session.

Follow these easy Eufy S1 Pro instructions below to get your pump set up and ensure a smooth, comfortable start.

Step 1

Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling any pump parts.

Step 2

Take the duckbill valve and push it into the circular slot at the bottom of the collection cup. It should fit snugly. Give it a gentle tug to confirm it’s secure.

You’ll want the flap of the valve to sit flat and aligned with the base of the cup—this helps your milk flow smoothly and prevents buildup inside the valve.

Step 3

Insert the diaphragm into the opening at the top of the collection cup. One side of the diaphragm is flat and the other has a dimple—make sure the dimple faces inward, toward the milk collector.

Press it down firmly so it’s flush with the rim. A secure diaphragm helps maintain suction and prevents milk from reaching the motor.

Step 4

Now take your flange and line it up with the collection cup. Slide the circular base of the flange into the top opening. Make sure the small pouring spout lines up with the correct section on the cup, and check that the sensor connector is pushed through properly.

This sensor connector is what links to the heating pad in your pump motor—so it’s important that it’s fitted correctly to allow the heating function to work.

Step 5

Push the flange down firmly around the rim of the collection cup. You may need to apply even pressure around the entire edge until it clicks into place and forms a secure seal.

Don’t rush this step—a loose or uneven flange fit is one of the most common causes of leaks or poor suction. I like to run my fingers around the edge at the end to check that everything is tightly sealed.

Step 6

Finally, attach the pump motor. Line up the motor with the top of the diaphragm and gently press it down until it clicks into place.

You’ll notice small connector points on the motor that need to align with the heating pad sensors on the collection cup. Once everything is clicked together securely, your Eufy S1 Pro is fully assembled and ready for use.

Using the Eufy S1 Pro Breast Pump

Once your Eufy S1 Pro is fully assembled and properly positioned, you’re ready to begin your pumping session.

Whether you’re using it for the first time or need a refresher, these step-by-step instructions show exactly how to wear the pump, adjust settings, and use the Eufy S1 Pro comfortably and effectively.

Step 1: Wash Your Hands

Before handling your pump or positioning the flange, make sure your hands are clean. This helps maintain hygiene and protect your breast milk from contamination.

Step 2: Check Your Flange Fit

Your pump comes with a 24mm flange and three inserts (21mm, 19mm, 17mm) to help you find the best fit. If the flange tunnel feels too large, simply insert the correct-size silicone insert into the flange before use.

Step 3: Position the Pump

Center your nipple within the flange tunnel. Then place the assembled pump against your breast and adjust your pumping bra to hold it snugly in place.

You want it to feel secure, but not too tight—compression can impact milk flow or cause discomfort.

Step 4: Power On

To turn on your Eufy S1 Pro, press and hold the power button. The LED display will light up. A quick press will pause or resume the session as needed.

Step 5: Select a Pumping Mode

You can use the built-in control panel on the Eufy S1 Pro breast pump or connect to the Eufy Baby app for more control. From the pump’s interface:

• Stimulation mode (waves icon): Use this at the start to trigger letdown. It delivers short, quick suctions.
• Expression mode (droplet icon): Once letdown occurs, switch to this mode for deeper, slower suctions to help express milk more efficiently.

You can toggle between modes using the mode button on the front of the pump.

Step 6: Adjust Suction Strength

Use the plus (+) and minus (–) buttons to set your desired suction level. The S1 Pro has seven levels of suction strength.

I recommend starting at level 2 or 3 and increasing only if you feel comfortable. You should feel a strong but gentle pull—never pain.

Step 7: Use the Heating Feature (Optional)

The Eufy S1 Pro includes a built-in warming feature that gently heats the flange area to encourage letdown and comfort. Tap the heat button to turn it on.

You can adjust the temperature between 35°C and 41°C (95°F to 105°F) directly on the pump or through the app.

You can also set a heat timer via the app if you’d like the warmth to turn off automatically after a certain time.

Step 8: Monitor and Adjust

Throughout your session, keep an eye on your comfort and output. You can make adjustments to suction level or mode at any time. If you’re using the app, you can also track your session length and milk output per side.

The left (L) and right (R) indicators on the pump are for app tracking purposes—so you can log output per breast or run synced/unlinked settings if double pumping.

Step 9: Finish Your Session

When you’re done pumping, press and hold the power button to turn off the pump.

Step 10: Remove the Pump

Lean forward slightly and gently break the seal between the flange and your breast with a finger before lifting the pump away.

Avoid pulling the pump straight off your breast without breaking the seal—this can be uncomfortable and may cause nipple pain.

Step 11: Transfer and Store Your Milk

Use the built-in pouring spout at the top of the collection cup to carefully transfer your milk into a clean storage bottle or bag.

If you’re new to milk storage, I recommend checking out my how to store breast milk guide for helpful tips.

Step 12: Clean Your Pump

After each session, disassemble and wash all parts that came into contact with milk. Let everything air dry completely before storing or reassembling.

The pump motor and charging case should never be submerged or rinsed—just wipe them down with a clean, dry cloth if needed.

Step 13: Recharge If Needed

Check your battery level before putting your pump away. You can either use the magnetic USB charger or pop your pump into the charging case (Pro version only). A small light on the case will indicate when the pump is charging.

Eufy S1 Pro Components

Understanding how each Eufy S1 Pro component works can help you troubleshoot issues, maintain strong suction, and keep your pump performing at its best over time. This wearable pump is designed to be compact and discreet, with thoughtfully engineered components that support both comfort and performance.

Here’s a breakdown of the key parts that make up the Eufy S1 Pro breast pump:

Pump Motor

This is the core of your pump—the part that powers the suction and controls all pumping functions. It’s lightweight and clips directly onto the top of the milk collector cup. It also connects to the internal heating pad and works with the Eufy Baby app for added control.

Flange

This is the funnel-shaped part that rests against your breast. It forms a seal and directs suction to the nipple. The S1 Pro comes with a standard 24mm flange, but smaller flange inserts (17mm, 19mm, and 21mm) are included to help you find your best fit.

Diaphragm

A soft, flexible barrier that plays a crucial role in creating and maintaining suction. It also prevents milk from entering the motor, keeping the pump hygienic and functioning properly.

Duckbill Valve

This one-way silicone valve is attached to the bottom of the collection cup. It controls the flow of milk into the cup and helps prevent backflow, ensuring milk stays where it should.

Milk Collector Cup

This is the wearable cup that holds your expressed milk during a session. It’s designed to fit discreetly in your bra and has a generous capacity of approximately 5oz (150ml).

Heating Pad (Built-In)

Located behind the flange, the heating element provides gentle warmth to help stimulate letdown and improve comfort. You can control the temperature manually or via the Eufy Baby app.

Magnetic Charger & Charging Case

The magnetic USB charger lets you charge your pump directly, while the charging case (included with the Pro version) makes it even easier to power up on the go. The case can hold a charge for multiple sessions, which is especially useful for travel or workdays.

Each of these parts is designed to work seamlessly together, giving you a hands-free pumping experience that’s quiet, effective, and customizable.

Troubleshooting Common Issues with the Eufy S1 Pro

Even with a high-quality wearable pump like the Eufy S1 Pro, occasional issues can come up. The good news is that most are easy to fix with a quick check or adjustment.

Below are the most common Eufy S1 Pro problems and how to fix them.

Incorrect Flange Size

Using the wrong flange size is one of the most common causes of discomfort, poor suction, and low milk output with the Eufy S1 Pro.

If the standard 24mm flange feels uncomfortable or you’re not getting good output, try one of the included silicone inserts (17mm, 19mm, or 21mm). A proper fit allows your nipple to move freely in the tunnel without rubbing or pulling in excess areola.

If pumping feels painful, suction seems weak, or output is inconsistent, flange sizing is the first thing to reassess.

Low or No Suction

• Check the duckbill valve and diaphragm for wear, stretching, or tears. These silicone parts typically need replacing every 1–3 months.
• Make sure all parts are fully assembled and sealed, especially the flange and diaphragm.
• Confirm the flange is centered over your nipple and creating a complete seal.

Milk Leaking During Pumping

• Ensure the flange is pressed firmly into the collection cup with no gaps.
• Check that the pour spout cap is securely attached.
• Avoid overfilling the milk collector cup, which can cause leaks or backflow.

Pump Will Not Turn On

• Fully charge the pump using the magnetic charger or charging case.
• Check for moisture or debris around the power button.
• Press and hold the power button for a few seconds — a quick press only pauses or resumes pumping.

Heating Pad Not Working

• Make sure the sensor connector is fully pushed through the flange during assembly.
• Try adjusting heat settings through the Eufy Baby app to confirm responsiveness.

Suction Feels Uncomfortable

• Reassess flange size and try a different insert if needed.
• Lower the suction level and increase gradually until suction feels strong but comfortable.

Loud or Unusual Noise

• Disassemble and reassemble the pump to ensure all parts are aligned correctly.
• Inspect the duckbill valve — a worn or misaligned valve can cause rattling or air noise.

Still Having Issues?

If problems continue after troubleshooting, consult the Eufy S1 Pro user manual or contact Eufy customer support. They can assist with setup issues, warranty concerns, or replacement parts.
