Verderflex Dispenses It Better

Leading peristaltic pump manufacturers Verderflex® have recently installed one of their programmable desktop tube pumps into the laboratories of Alliance Technical Laboratories Ltd in Suffolk. At ATL hygienic bags are filled with a sterile media for meat and other food goods. They also regularly have to accurately dispense chemicals and other fluids. Previously this was a laborious task involving the careful measurement of liquid by hand. This was not only time consuming but prone to human error. Neil Thomas from Verderflex had the solution, a Verderflex Scientific peristaltic tube pump, capable of delivering highly accurate and repeatable flows of up to 1310ml/min. Peristaltic tube pumps keep the liquid being pumped totally sealed within a hygienic length of tubing, there can be no contamination between the medium and the pump itself or any other external substance. This makes a peristaltic pump the perfect choice for any application where hygiene is of the utmost importance. It also means that there are no external moving parts that can clog or wear, so maintenance time is kept to a minimum. A Verderflex Scientific pump works by squeezing the tubing between the outer casing and a rotating roller, this roller then pushes the liquid along the tube as it rotates. The resulting vacuum in the tube is filled by more liquid from the source. This simple pumping method supplies an accurate and repeatable flow every time. No more need to weigh or measure every dose before it is added. Alliance technical Laboratories Ltd chose the Verderflex Scientific pump because it is compact, easily fitting onto a bench or work surface, it is easy to control and can be adapted to work with a foot switch, providing quick and easy dosing. A favourite feature is the timed dose option that the Verderflex Scientific provides, allowing a set amount of liquid to be dosed each and every time without the need for reprogramming. The pump is accurate and repeatable up to ± 0.5%, with no product slip, providing piece of mind dosing and dramatically speeding up this process. The tubing can be changed in just three very simple steps and no tools are required, making the pump accurate, repeatable and user friendly to use. Additional pump heads can also be added to the pump, allowing for multiple dosing applications at the same time, from just the one pump.
