Precision Peristaltic Pump PD 5201 by Heidolph
The Heidolph PD 5201 is a high-performance peristaltic pump drive engineered for precise liquid handling and fluid transfer in various laboratory and industrial settings. It is equipped with cutting-edge features such as a microprocessor-controlled drive, digital and analog interfaces, and a range of pump head and tubing options. The PD 5201 ensures accurate fluid flow management, making it ideal for applications that require precision dosing, interval dispensing, and continuous flow operations.
The PD 5201 offers a speed range from 5 to 120 revolutions per minute (rpm), allowing for flow rates from 0.3 to 729 milliliters per minute (ml/min) using single-channel pump heads. For multi-channel applications, the flow rates range from as low as 0.005 ml/min to 336 ml/min, ensuring compatibility with different fluid handling requirements. The pump is designed to be equipped with up to two pump heads, including the SP quick and SP quick d models, making it suitable for both single-channel and multi-channel operations. Additionally, it supports a variety of multi-channel pump heads and cassettes, allowing for simultaneous dispensing into multiple containers.
With a 4-digit display, the PD 5201 provides real-time electronic readout for speed, flow rate, interval dosing, and pause settings, facilitating precise control over fluid management. The pump's electronic speed control boasts an accuracy of ±0.5%, ensuring consistent flow even in critical applications. Users can also calibrate the flow rate and volume for enhanced accuracy, making the PD 5201 ideal for tasks that require meticulous dosing.
The PD 5201 is equipped with both analog (0 - 10 V or 4 - 20 mA) and digital RS 232 interfaces for seamless integration into automated systems. These interfaces allow remote control of speed, start/stop functions, and direction of rotation, offering greater flexibility for automated workflows. The pump can operate in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, making it suitable for diverse fluid handling tasks such as filling, emptying, and mixing.
Ease of use is a priority for the PD 5201. The design also facilitates quick tubing changes, which can be accomplished in seconds, minimizing downtime during maintenance. The pump heads support the use of up to 12 cassettes for multi-channel dispensing, and cassettes can be replaced during operation without interrupting the workflow.
In addition to flow rate control, the PD 5201 allows users to pre-select dosing volumes and set interval dosing schedules. This feature is particularly beneficial for applications requiring periodic fluid delivery, such as in chemical reactions, cell culture feeding, or automated sampling. A push-button for maximum speed facilitates quick filling or emptying of tubing, further enhancing the pump's versatility.
Constructed with an IP 55 protection rating, the PD 5201 is designed to withstand harsh environments, providing durability and long-term reliability. The drive is compatible with a variety of tube materials and sizes, catering to different chemical resistances and fluid viscosities.
