new SIMDOS dosing pump / Diaphragm pump is particularly suited to pumping aggressive liquids

Dosing simplified - KNF Flodos introduces a new smart dosing pump for the Lab
The new SIMDOS dosing pump from KNF Flodos of Switzerland has been designed to be especially user friendly. The combination of a clear display, an intuitive interface and a single turn/press knob ensures that all the functions can be easily programmed and started.

Diaphragm pumps are particularly suited to pumping aggressive liquids which are commonly used in Labs. The SIMDOS is available with several different head materials including a highly resistant PTFE / FFPM one. In worst case should an accident occur the head is located outside of the IP 65 housing so that the electronics are protected.

As with all metering pumps the calibration procedure is of upmost importance. In all the pilot tests this has proven to be extremely quick and simple. Once the pump has been calibrated the accuracy lies by ± 2% and repeatability by ± 1%.

The SIMDOS can pump liquids and gases at a flow rate of 0 to 100 ml/min or can deliver dispense volumes from 0 -1000 ml.

The pump is able to run dry without damage and is self priming up to 3 mWg. It can work against a pressure of 6 bar and pump viscous products up to a standard of 150 centistokes. The integrated soft-ware allows the characteristics of the pump to be adjusted thus helping to pump different types of liquids. As the SIMDOS is low maintenance, it makes it a very practical and economical solution.

Last but not least, the pump has a slim design and a small footprint so that it does not use up valuable worktop space.
