Product Information
03.56.10 Pump syringe
S11 PDP
· Small size, high precision at an affordable price
With its Zirconia Ceramic displacement piston technology, the S11 PDP pump offers several key benefits over competing displacement and syringe pumps, including:
· Compact design – Approximately 5” long x 1” wide x 1.5” high
· Value priced to meet cost constraints of lab automation and diagnostic applications
· Guaranteed pump life of over 1 million cycles
Available with total dispense volumes of 25µL to 1mL, the S11 PDP can dispense volumes from under 1µL up to 1mL. It uses a Frame 11, 1.8-degree linear stepper motor and includes an optical end of stroke switch. Optional Seal Wash Ports and motor encorders are also available upon request.
S17 PDP
The S17 PDP is a key product in Sapphire’s line of products for IVD and Biotech OEMs. These full-size, fully customizable Precision Dispense Pumps offer a longer life and improved performance at a greatly reduced cost of ownership over competing products. While accurately dispensing volumes from less than 1µL up to 5mL, these pumps boast a guaranteed life of five million cycles (for a typical diagnostics application). Available in a variety of sizes and materials, all pumps can be customized to meet the OEM customer’s specific needs.
VFP17
Finally, the Value, Flexibility, and Performance you require. With its Zirconia Ceramic displacement piston technology, the VFP17 precision dispense pump offers several key benefits over competing displacement and syringe pumps, including:
· High precision and low cost of ownership at a value price to meet the cost constraints of lab automation and diagnostic applications
· Guaranteed pump life of millions of cycles
· Available with total dispense volumes of 25µL to 5mL
· Flexibility to customize pump head, piston and seal materials for your application
