Pumps help to scale up chemical manufacturing
Process chemists at AstraZeneca in Sweden are using the Stepdos and Liquiport ranges of liquid pumps from KNF Flodos for the development of their manufacturing processes
"I was very satisfied with the pumps when I initially tested them," Nunes explained.
"The characteristics of the head material are ideal for the formalin embedding system and we have found the pumps to be incredibly robust, safe and durable.
"We use around 50 pumps per year and none of our systems have had any problems in all the time we have been using the pumps".
The multipurpose Liquiport has been designed for aspirating or transferring liquids for industry and laboratory use.
The pump head is available in a variety of different materials to suit a wide range of different chemicals, and customised options are also available.
