Pump head for consistent temperature control

Thermoplastic material for seals and bearings Arlon® 1000 from Greene, Tweed is a new material designed for diverse medical and biotechnology applications. The ductile polyetheretherketone thermoplastic material can be used in seals, bushings, bearings, SIP/CIP equipment, valves and pumpheads, and especially in liquid chromatography applications.

The material combines a number of mechanical, thermal, chemical and electrical properties. It has a tensile strength of 15,260psi and an elongation capacity of 6%. It offers high shear strength and some resistance to creep. With a crystalline melting point of 633°F, Arlon 1000 also exhibits some

potential for applications above 500°F. According to the manufacturers, the material should also ensure FDA compliance when fitted to most systems in the pharmaceutical or food industry sectors. USE THE ENQUIRY SERVICE @ www.worldpumps.com - RES No.205

The tiny CSC-WT pump head from Fluid Metering Inc can be fitted to the company’s range of metering pumps.

Fluid Metering Inc (FMI) has launched a new range of temperature controlled pump heads for process dispensing and metering applications. The CSC-WT pump head provides temperature control for FMI pumps and will help to maintain consistent fluid temperatures in reactor feed, pilot plant, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, food, industrial, or process applications. The CSC-WT pump head accepts two standard 1/4" x 1" electric cartridge heaters and a thermocouple. Temperature control ranges up to a maximum of 350°F (180°C), depending upon various installation and specification factors. In addition, the CSC-WT pump head incorporates an isolation gland for application with air sensitive fluids, enhancing the versatility of the new offering. It is compatible with all FMI pumps and drives and can continuously meter at up to 1200 cc/min, at an accuracy of 1% or better. USE THE ENQUIRY SERVICE @ www.worldpumps.com - RES No.204
