Pumps combine precision with high
pressure
Compact gear pumps are designed to meet the increasing demand for pumps that provide very precise dosing and metering in the microlitre and millilitre ranges
A range of extremely compact gear pumps which are designed to meet the increasing demand for pumps that provide very precise dosing and metering in the microlitre and millilitre ranges, are now available from Michael Smith Engineers Micropump MZR positive displacement gear pumps deliver pulse-free, smooth flows from as low as 0.15ml/min up to 280ml/min and can generate very high differential pressures of up to 80bar, depending on the viscosity of the fluid

Micropumps for precise, high-tech pumping
MZR pumps are offered in two series of pumps which cover flow rates from 0.15ml/min up to 300ml/min and discrete individual dispense amounts starting from as little as 0.25ul
Ecofluidic pump is ideal for lab liquid dispensing
Ecofluidic pumps are designed for low-cost, simple liquid transfer, such as filling canisters and containers and they incorporate some innovative features
Precise smooth flow from micro annular gear pumps
Ultra-compact HNP pumps deliver liquids with a precision of CV<1% across flow rates from 0.25microlitres to 1152ml/min for OEM, analytical, biotechnology and other similar applications
These pumps, which can handle liquids with viscosities as low as 0.5cP and as high as 50,000cP (depending on the model), are suited to precision liquids transfer applications, such as those in laboratory, analytical instrumentation, process technology, medicine and biotechnology applications.
With a wide choice of AC and DC drives, MZR pumps are suitable for OEM applications.
The smallest units are only 13mm diameter by 75mm long.
Micropump MZR pumps incorporate precision components in tough materials such as tungsten carbide and ceramics, which ensures the dual benefits of optimum performance to an accuracy of +/-1% and maximum resistance to wear.
Also, they are self-priming thanks to their valve-free construction with low clearance volumes.
Applications for Micropump MZR pumps have included automated sampling systems for analysing blood, pumping non-lubricating liquids in fuel cells, pumping liquids with particles in online paint mixing machines, micro-dosing to coat blood samplers and metering high viscosity liquids when adding glucose solutions in dog biscuit production.
