New pump series suits all applications
Peristaltic pump manufacturer Watson-Marlow Bredel has introduced a range of compact single, dual and multichannel pumps for laboratory applications. The new series complements existing ranges to give increased flow rate options between 0.001ml and 730ml/min through one to four channels.
The 400 Series pumps have a smaller footprint, making them particularly suitable for applications where space is at a premium. They conform to IP21 standards and offer zero contamination, sterility, easy cleaning, accurate metering, low shear, smooth flow and reliability. They can also be fitted with Sta-Pure and Chem-Sure composite expanded PTFE tubing for unrivalled hygiene or chemical resistance.
The pumpheads have precision machined aluminium rotors and low friction stainless steel rollers. A range of configurations is available to suit a variety of applications and budgets. At the entry level, the 400 Series is said to offer basic functionality at a competitive price.
'The pumps can be tailored to suit the application,' said business development director David Johnson, 'so there is no need for pharmaceutical companies to compromise on their ideal set-up.'
