HARVARD Apparatus says its new PHD Ultra CP syringe pump is the first of its kind to infuse fluids under constant pressure by automatically adjusting the flow rate.
This constant-pressure delivery of fluids provides advantages for various experiments, it says, including organ perfusion studies which require constant physiological conditions, ocular injections and perfusions, whole-body perfusions on small animals, constant pressure microfluidic mixing, and the controlled introduction of reagents.
PHD Ultra CP connects to commercially-available pressure transducer/amplifiers with 0-10V output, and delivers fluids with an applied force of up to 450kg and pressure accuracy within 2%.
The pumps in the CP range are all infuse/withdraw models, and are available in a number of configurations and force/pressure ratings.
