The Laboratory Pumps category includes the instruments, accessories and consumables needed to measure, dispense, aspirate, pump and route liquids accurately between vessels, instruments and process steps. Selecting them as part of a complete workflow helps prevent compatibility problems that are easy to miss when individual items are considered separately. A practical point for this category is that saint Gobain and Cole Parmer offer specialised laboratory tubing and fluidic connections that are engineered for high chemical resistance and compatibility with various pump drives, ensuring leak-free performance.
Volume error, unsuitable wetted materials, trapped air and poor connections can affect concentration, recovery and repeatability. The practical choice therefore depends on connection size, manual or automated control, volume or flow range, and accuracy and precision, as well as how frequently the product will be used and how it connects with the rest of the procedure.
The complete fluid path should match the required volume or flow range, liquid properties, tubing and connection sizes, control method and cleaning approach. This coordinated approach is particularly useful in analytical, life-science, chemistry, process-development and quality-control laboratories, where repeatability and clear operating procedures matter. As part of the Laboratory Liquid Handling Equipment range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Pumps range
Our collection covers the main product groups used to measure, dispense, aspirate, pump and route liquids accurately between vessels, instruments and process steps, from dosing pumps through to peristaltic pumps.
Laboratory Dosing Pumps
The Laboratory Dosing Pumps range covers equipment and consumables used to measure, dispense, aspirate, pump and route liquids accurately between vessels, instruments and process steps. High quality dosing pumps, also known as metering pumps, are specifically designed to move a precise volume of liquid in a specified time period, whereas transfer pumps are generally used for moving large volumes without exact measurement.
Laboratory Drum Pumps
The Laboratory Drum Pumps range supports laboratories that need to measure, dispense, aspirate, pump and route liquids accurately between vessels, instruments and process steps. The OTAL series is highly versatile because only the delivery tubes come into contact with the liquid, allowing the pump to be used with a wide variety of materials by simply choosing the appropriate tube type (PP, PVDF, or Stainless Steel).
Laboratory Gear Pumps
The Laboratory Gear Pumps range supports laboratories that need to measure, dispense, aspirate, pump and route liquids accurately between vessels, instruments and process steps. This gear pump offers a completely pulseless flow and can handle significantly higher system pressures, making it ideal for applications where flow consistency is paramount.
Laboratory Peristaltic Pumps
The Laboratory Peristaltic Pumps range covers equipment and consumables used to measure, dispense, aspirate, pump and route liquids accurately between vessels, instruments and process steps. The primary benefit is that the fluid is fully contained within the tubing and never contacts the pump mechanism.
