Hello,
             We are looking for a peristaltic pump with the following
features. Can someone recommend companies or models where we can get them.

1. Flow rates from  0.1 mL - 10 mL/min
2. Pressure less than 30 psi.
3. Four or more pumping channels.
4. PC Control with RS232 or USB.

Thanks,

-Prabhakar

We use a 4 channel Watson Marlow pump in our lab which operates at the flow rates you have specified (though I am not sure about your upper end rates) and at a pressure up to 29psi. We also have a Gilson Minipuls Evolution pump which can pump up to 12 channels at a flow rate range of 0.2µl/min to 70ml/min (depending on the tubing used, temperature etc) and at a pressure of up to 42psi.

Look these up on the net and you should be able to find a distributor in your country who can help you.

 

Kind regards,

Deanne.

Hi Prabhakar,

I am using the 8 channel Minipuls3 Peristaltic Pump from Gilson for my
electrophysiology rack. I am very satisfied with it. No commercial
interest ^_^.
