Peristaltic pumps – Tubing pumps by LAMBDA – Description

LAMBDA PRECIFLOW, MULTIFLOW, HiFLOW, MAXIFLOW and MEGAFLOW

The high quality LAMBDA peristaltic pumps PRECIFLOW, MULTIFLOW, HIFLOW, MAXIFLOW and MEGAFLOW have been specially developed for long term continuous processes like in fermentations and cell cultures.

LAMBDA’s unique tubing compressing mechanics reduces pulsation and is very gentle to the tubing. This leads to a long tubing life and the long term stability of flow rates even with low cost tubing. The tubing economy is such that the peristaltic pump is paid back after the use of only 80 m of tubing. Thus, this is the only pump on the market, which saves more money than it costs!

LAMBDA peristaltic pumps are so handy that they can be easily kept just in one hand and take only minimal space in any installation. LAMBDA peristaltic pumps are programmable with extensive remote control possibilities and an extremely broad digital flow rate setting in the range from 1 to 1000.

Below the main characteristics of the LAMBDA peristaltic pumps are outlined:

• Most compact peristaltic pumps of this type on the market
• Flow rates from 0.01 to 10000 ml/hour
• Greatly extended tubing life with decreased pulsation and very economic in use
• Large digital speed setting range from 1:1000
• Flow rate programming (up to 99 steps) and automatic switch-on and switch-off without using any timer
• New motor technology
• Extensive remote controls
• Access to reaction kinetics by using the Pump-Flow INTEGRATOR
• RS-485 or RS-232 interface (optional)
• PNet control software (optional)
• Virtually noiseless operation
• Low voltage plug-in power supply for maximum safety

LAMBDA peristaltic pumps are used wherever a reliable, precise and long term stable operation is required - for example in continuous processes as is often the case in many biotechnology applications, fermentation, cell cultures, chromatography and the like. Therefore, they are also used together with the laboratory fermenter-bioreactor system LAMBDA MINIFOR.

A real breakthrough in the utilization of the peristaltic pumps is provided by the pump-flow INTEGRATOR which can be further complemented by the PC control software PNet. This allows using the pumps for new applications, where special expensive instruments had to be used before. It is possible to use the pumps to create gradients, to follow the kinetics of chemical or biological processes, measure growth rates and the extent of growth of cultures in biotechnology, etc. The LAMBDA pumps are very well suited also for chromatography e.g. together with the polyvalent and easy-to-use LAMBDA OMNICOLL fraction collector.

The utilization of the new PNet software is not only limited to the peristaltic or syringe pumps LAMBDA VIT-FIT for liquids, but can also be used for the dosing of solid powdery substances with the LAMBDA DOSER, a unique pump for the precise dosing of solid and crystalline substances, or even for the measurement and control of the mass flow of gases with the LAMBDA MASSFLOW controller. This is essential for automatic pH control during cell cultures with the LAMBDA laboratory fermentation and cell culture system MINIFOR or other existing fermentor systems.
