Featuring a smaller footprint than other pumps with a similar flow rate, 720 pumps provide low shear pumping up to 4000 litre/hour and use sanitary LoadSure pumping elements for one minute maintenance
The 323Dz provides manually adjustable speeds of 2-400rpm, with flow rates ranging from 0.06ml/min to 2000ml/min, resulting in a dosing capability of 100ml in under three seconds.
Additionally, designed with menu-driven calibration, the 323Dz allows for mid-batch calibration any time during the pumping process.
To reduce splashing and further improve accuracy, the 323Dz pump is available with ramp-up and ramp-down speeds and a non-drip function.

Watson-Marlow Bredel will exhibit from its comprehensive range of peristaltic pumps for pharmaceutical and biotechnology applications at SCIpharm 2006 (14-17 May; EICC, Edinburgh, Scotland)
Also equipped with a maintenance-free brushless DC motor, the 323Dz brings superior durability and reliability to the dispensing market.
For fast, error-free tube loading the 313D pumphead uses clamps and stretch tube location, and is compatible with five tube bore sizes.
The 323Dz can also be used with Waston-Marlow Bredel's 314D pumphead, which offers increased accuracy and low pulsation.
For ultimate flexibility, both pumpheads can ganged up to six additional pumpheads for multiple channel flows.
Additionally, under maximum speed and tube bore size, the pump's microprocessor control ensures optimum performance and accuracy within +/-1%.
Watson-Marlow Bredel's 323Dz pump features a light, stackable and ultra-compact design for space saving even under a fume hood.
Designed for operation flexibility, the 323Dz can dispense by keypress, remote footswitch or handswitch enabling single-shot batch dispensing without repeat finger operation.
Also, the pump features a large clear LCD display for accurate readability and on-screen set-up and operation assistance.
For easy cleaning, the pump is housed in a small, chemically resistant case with wipe down keypad and smooth contour surfaces.
Every Watson-Marlow Bredel peristaltic pump is an inherent metering pump with repeatability at 99.5%.
Many models include integral digital drives and displays in washdown enclosures.
These self-priming pumps accommodate flow rates from 0.1microliter to 400gpm, and are extremely durable, withstanding pressures up to 230psi.
There are no internal universal joints, valves, dead corners, or glands to impede flow, and these pumps are reversible for back flushing lines.
They can also run dry indefinitely without damage and provide up to a 9m suction lift. Request a free brochure from Watson-Marlow Bredel Pumps ...
