Cole Palmer - Cole Parmer MasterFlex 07528-10 LS Pump

• Precise dosing and dispensing in laboratory settings.
• Transfer of shear-sensitive fluids in biopharmaceutical processes.
• Chemical addition and sampling in analytical instrumentation.
• Sterile fluid transfer in cell culture and fermentation.
• Metering of viscous or abrasive slurries in industrial processes.

Typical flow rate range

For this class of MasterFlex L/S pump heads, flow rates commonly range from 0.001 to 3400 mL/min, depending on tubing size and drive speed.

Tubing compatibility

Units of this type are designed for MasterFlex L/S precision tubing, available in various formulations and sizes (e.g., L/S 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 25).

Rotor/roller material

Commonly available with stainless steel (SS) or cold-rolled steel (CRS) rotors/rollers, offering different levels of chemical resistance and durability.

Number of rollers

Typically features a three-roller design for smooth and consistent flow.

Occlusion adjustment

Units of this model often include adjustable occlusion to optimise tubing life and pressure performance.

Drive compatibility

Designed for use with Cole-Parmer MasterFlex L/S drives, which provide the motor and speed control.

• What are the main advantages of a peristaltic pump for fluid transfer?

  Peristaltic pumps offer contamination-free pumping as the fluid only contacts the tubing, making them ideal for sterile or sensitive applications. They are also capable of handling viscous, abrasive, or shear-sensitive fluids effectively.

• How do I choose the correct tubing for a MasterFlex L/S pump head?

• What is the significance of the 'Easy-Load II' feature?

• Can this pump head be used for multi-channel applications?

• What maintenance is typically required for a peristaltic pump head?

Pump heads and accessories are valued for their reliability and compatibility with established laboratory and biotech systems. Buyers typically prioritize condition of seals, tubing compatibility, and flow rate specifications when purchasing used units. Common strengths include longevity when properly maintained and availability of replacement parts. Key considerations include verifying previous calibration records, checking for corrosion or wear, and confirming material compatibility with intended fluids. Industry sentiment favours reputable manufacturers known for precision engineering and robust construction.
