Nanolitre syringe pump is compact
The new KD Scientific Model KDS 310 Nano Pump has been developed for use exclusively with micro syringes from 0.5 to 250microlitre in volume
The small size of the unit's pumping head makes the pump ideal for any application where space is limited The pumping head can be mounted close to the fluid deliver location, while the control unit can be located up to six feet away

Pump for injecting radioactive labelled chemicals
When pumping radioactive chemicals where a beta or gamma shield must be present, KD Scientific says its model KDS 310 syringe pump is ideal because of its remote pumping unit and control box
Spill protection for microscopes and lab equipment
KD Scientific has introduced the new OS-250, a system which detects spills and leaks before they cause a problem in an expensive microscope or other piece of equipment
The rugged mounting arm is ideal for mounting the pump head on micromanipulators, stereotaxic frames and other clamping devices.
Additionally, by locating the controller remotely it permits safe pumping into reaction vessels and pumping radioactive chemicals.
The single syringe infusion/withdrawal pump consists of a controller and a remote pump head designed to use microlitre syringes and deliver nanolitre volumes at low flow rates.
Syringes fit snugly in a new mounting bracket design so the fluid is delivered precisely without movement of the syringe.
The assembly will mount on a clamp for positioning on a frame.
The microprocessor based controller uses a bright display and membrane keypad with a simple, menu-prompt system for easy setup.
The pump features preset rate and volume control.
The dispense volume is displayed continuously and the pump shuts off automatically when the preset volume has been reached.
Optionally, the KDS 310 can be triggered remotely by a foot pedal or remote switch and offers the user true versatility in using the unit in a 'hands-free' mode.
Applications for the KDS 310 include: pharmaceutical, chemical, petrochemical, biotechnology, semiconductor, plastics, industrial, government, scientific research and development markets.
