Three Dispensing Applications for Masterflex Peristaltic Pumps

Though Masterflex^® peristaltic pumps are versatile enough to be used for many applications—from wastewater to industrial to manufacturing—here are some of the top dispensing applications:

1)    Research & Development (R&D) and Quality Control

With accuracy and repeatability in low-volume dispensing applications, Masterflex tubing pumps are an effective option for laboratory research and development.

Common uses include transferring fluids into smaller containers, preparing test samples, dispensing media, and performing serial dilutions. 

2)    Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology
The non-contaminating, sterilization options for tubing make peristaltic pumps popular in pharmaceutical and biotech. From pill coating to dilutions to dispensing microbiological media, to filling and packaging, Masterflex pumps deliver the solution.

3)    Food and Beverage
With the availability of modular and console washdown pumps along with tubing formulations that meet USP, FDA, NSF, and 3A requirements, Masterflex also handles many food and beverage applications.

Typical uses in this industry include dispensing flavorings, colorings, vitamins, nutraceuticals, and other additives in processing. These peristaltic pumps also dispense end products on production lines or into shelf packages.
