Peristaltic pumps are among the smallest
available
Watson-Marlow Bredel, a manufacturer of peristaltic pumps, will showcase its 400F/A pump at Pittcon 2006, which is being on 12-17 March in Orlando, Florida, USA.
The 400 F/A pumps - exhibited on Booth 1311 - are the smallest peristaltic pumps on the market, claims the company, and are more cost-effective than syringe pumps, enabling the designer to place them anywhere on an instrument, saving them space and reducing costs Designed specifically for sample preparation, the 400 F/A pump is ideal for automated laboratory applications including dispensing and collecting samples and reagents

A new tube is a new peristaltic pump
Watson-Marlow manufactures tubing for peristaltic pumps and transfer duties in four materials, and can supply tubing in 12 different materials and over 60 sizes

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
These instrument-quality pumps offer the advantages of continuous flow capability and simple plumbing, eliminating the need for valves.
The 400 F/A when used in conjunction with the company's Sta-Pure tubing gives long-term flow repeatability and accuracy comparable to syringe pumps.
The tight dimensional tolerances of the pump and tube are the keys to its superior performance.
The unique properties of the tube allow it to hold its accuracy over thousands of hours, in many cases for the life of the instrument.
Every Watson-Marlow Bredel peristaltic pump is an inherent metering pump with repeatability at 99.5 percent.
Many models include integral digital drives and displays in wash-down enclosures.
These self-priming pumps accommodate flow rates from 30ul/min to 30 ml/min, and are extremely durable, withstanding pressures up to 1.6MPa (232psi).
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 (30ft) suction lift. Request a free brochure from Watson-Marlow Bredel Pumps ...
