Intellitech expands its i-FILL micro pump family

When pharmaceutical manufacturers or specialty chemical processers need to automate R&D, lab, or production filling of small volumes of high-value product with exceptional accuracy, Intellitech’s i-FILL Micro pump is designed for the job. It is the latest addition to the company’s i-FILL family of precision liquid dispensing pump technology and single-use systems.

When pharmaceutical manufacturers or specialty chemical processers need to automate R&D, lab, or production filling of small volumes of high-value product with exceptional accuracy, Intellitech’s i-FILL Micro pump is designed for the job. It is the latest addition to the company’s i-FILL family of precision liquid dispensing pump technology and single-use systems. To avoid wasting any high-value product, which can take months to formulate and be worth thousands of dollars per ml, the device is designed to pump dry and does not drip between dispensing batches. This eliminates product loss at the end of a batch run.

Intellitech’s i-FILL micro pump provides extremely precise, repeatable dispensing of 100mcl to 15ml with single stroke capacity and larger volumes are possible with multiple strokes. The micro pump delivers repeatable liquid filling accuracy +/-.5% of the intended volume. In comparison, conventional pump accuracy is usually within 1-2%.

As an alternative to peristaltic pump technology, the i-FILL Micro pump design, a hybrid of a diaphragm and piston pump, is gentler and more reliable when dispensing biologics or specialty chemicals.

The micro pump is designed for use with Intellitech’s sterile, single-use liquid measuring and dispensing system and kit, which eliminates the need to clean and sterilize equipment between batches. Intellitech’s i-FILL family of precision liquid dispensing pump technology and single-use systems have run millions of cycles in pharmaceutical and chemical dispensing applications.
