OverviewThe 300 series cased benchtop pumps are laboratory-grade drives offering manual, remote, analogue (0–10 V / 4–20 mA) or RS232 control. Drives feature a chemically resistant ABS top, powder-coated casework and IP31 ingress protection. Four drive variants provide graduated control and functionality: 323Du (RS232/auto/manual, high-flow), 323U (analogue-auto/enhanced manual), 323S (high-performance manual) and 323E (manual).
Pumphead options available as standard (others available on request):- 313D / 313D2 — three-roller pumpheads for continuous tubing
- 314D / 314D2 — four-roller pumpheads for continuous tubing
- 314MC — four-roller five-channel microcassette pumphead
- 318MC — eight-roller five-channel microcassette pumphead
- 501RL / 501RL2 — single-channel spring-loaded pumpheads for large-bore tubing
Features and benefits- Control: manual keypad, remote TTL run/stop & direction, analogue 0–10 V or 4–20 mA, RS232 on applicable models
- Enhanced digital manual speed control up to 133:1 (model-dependent)
- Keypad lock to prevent accidental changes
- MemoDose function for accurate single-shot dosing
- Digital TTL inputs for run/stop and direction; instantly reversible
- Two-year manufacturer warranty
