DOSE IT P910: A versatile solution for precise dosing in the laboratory
The DOSE IT P910 from Integra Biosciences is a peristaltic pump designed to meet the needs of modern laboratories for liquid dosing and transfer. This programmable pump delivers precise volumes ranging from 0.1 ml to 9999 ml thanks to advanced technology and an intuitive user interface. Its compatibility with different silicone tube diameters (from 1 mm to 8 mm) allows the speed and accuracy of dosing to be adjusted to the specific requirements of each application.
The DOSE IT P910 stands out for its versatility. It can operate in"DISPENSE" mode to dispense defined volumes into containers or in"PUMP" mode for continuous pumping of liquids. In addition, it offers the possibility of creating customised applications thanks to its"CUSTOMISE" mode, which allows complex dosing and suction sequences to be defined. This feature is particularly useful for applications requiring density gradients or flow variations.
The accuracy of the DOSE IT P910 is based on a high-performance calibration system. The pump must be calibrated for each tube diameter used, as well as after each change of liquid or flow rate. This calibration guarantees optimal accuracy, expressed by a coefficient of variation (CV) of less than 1%, even for liquids of varying viscosities. The pump is also equipped with adjustable clamps to hold the tube in place and prevent slippage during operation.
In terms of safety, the DOSE IT P910 complies with international standards, including European directives on low voltage, electromagnetic compatibility and the restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS). It is manufactured from high-quality materials, such as polyurethane for the housing,stainless steel for the base plate, and silicone for the tubes, ensuring durability and resistance to chemicals commonly used in laboratories.
The DOSE IT P910 is easy to use thanks to its user-friendly interface. The display clearly shows dosing parameters such as volume, flow rate, number of repetitions, and pauses between doses. Users can easily adjust these parameters using the navigation keys and function buttons. In addition, the pump can be controlled remotely via a PC or foot switch, offering increased flexibility for demanding work environments.
The DOSE IT P910 is designed for easy maintenance. Parts that come into contact with liquids, such as silicone tubes and suction/dispensing tubes, can be autoclaved. The pump itself can be cleaned with a 70% ethanol solution or soapy water. Regular leak tests are recommended to ensure system integrity and prevent dosing errors.
The DOSE IT P910 from Integra Biosciences is an indispensable tool for laboratories requiring accurate and reliable dosing. Its versatility, precision and ease of use make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, from routine tasks to complex procedures requiring customisation.
