QUADRANT TECHTRON® PPS HELPS BIOCHEM FLUIDICS PERFORM IN EXTREME MICRO-PUMP APPLICATIONS
(Reading, PA, April 7, 2010) - Quadrant Techtron® PPS enables BioChem Fluidics, a leading micro-pump manufacturer to promote the broadest possible performance range for their line of micro-pumps. Designed for use as miniature fluid handling components,these units include micro-pumps, isolation valves, pinch valves, relief valves and rotary valves and are used by the world's leading analytical instrument manufacturers and laboratories in the bio-tech industry. Techtron® PPS provides BioChem engineers a unique combination of high strength and excellent dimensional stability. The water absorption of Techtron PPS is among the lowest of all polymers and has no known solvents below 392F. BioChem utilizes Techtron PPS for both pump bodies and manifolds when other polymers such as PEEK, fluoropolymers (like PTFE and FEP) and POM failed prematurely as fluid contact components.
BioChem Fluidics, a Halma Company, specifies Quadrant Techtron PPS because of its purity, ability to maintain tight machined tolerances and broad size and shape availability. With many sizes of rod and sheet available from stock, BioChem is able to quickly deliver the performance and reliability their customers associate with an industry leader. BioChem micro-pumps, incorporating Techtron PPS are designed for continuous duty and are suitable for up to 20 million actuations or nearly 3,000 hours of continuous use at a 2 Hz cycle rate. They dispense volumes ranging from 4?l to 250?l per cycle and can be cycled at up to 4 Hz for the smallest version and 1.6 Hz for the largest. Bio-Chem products are employed as critical components by instrument manufacturers in chromatography, chemical research, biotechnology, hematology, pharmaceutical analytical research, industrial quality testing, printing and environmental monitoring.
