Syringe pump provides high linear force
Harvard Apparatus has developed a new programmable syringe pump, the PHD 4400, with a high power stepper motor which provides over 200 pounds of linear force.
Using a 2.5 ml stainless steel syringe, the user can achieve pressures up to 8000 psi. The pump has a flow rate range of 0.0076 ul/min-182.40 ml/min and will accept 2.5 ml to 100 ml stainless steel syringes.
The PHD 4400 can operate in pump, volume or program mode, the company says. It can be run continuously in the pump mode, dispense a specific volume in volume mode or run multiple sequences in program mode. These sequences can be stored in the non-volatile memory for future use.
This pump is suitable for applications such as micro reactor delivery, drug delivery, working with highly corrosive materials and high pressure reactors.
