4 Types of Microfluidic Pumps
Microfluidic instruments are typically used in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, life sciences, and even engineering systems. Transporting small fluid volumes, microfluidic pumps control the flow of liquids and gases in the microliter range.
Micro pumps include syringe pumps, peristaltic pumps, self-priming diaphragm pumps, and piston pump systems.
Many syringe pumps are capable of achieving single-digit picoliter per minute flow rates—ideal for microfluidic uses. Syringe pumps also offer a more uniform flow with less pulsation in the delivered fluid.
Self-priming micro pumps are able to dispense as low as 4 microliters with an impressive life cycle of up to 20 million dispense cycles. These pumps also offer low power consumption.
Low flow peristaltic pumps provide variable flow and exceptional life performance. These compact units can also run dry without damage to the pump.
Low flow piston pump systems deliver fluids smoothly with precise metering. A high-resolution stepper motor maximizes flow while minimizing pulsation.
