Micropumps

Micropumps for Precise Transfer of Small Liquid Volumes

In compact devices and demanding fluidic systems, it is often necessary to transfer small liquid volumes in a controlled manner. Micropumps are designed for these tasks and enable space-saving pumping solutions for laboratory equipment, analytical instruments and customised systems. At FluidControl24, you will find micropumps for a range of technical requirements and applications.

Which micropump is right for your application?

The appropriate pumping technology depends on the medium to be transferred and the requirements for flow rate, pressure, dosing accuracy and installation space. The drive and integration into the overall system are also important considerations.

• Miniature peristaltic pumps: for transferring liquids through suitable tubing.
• Piezo pumps: for compact fluidic systems using a piezoelectric drive.
• Microfluidic pumping solutions: for applications that require controlled movement of very small liquid volumes.

Where are micropumps used?

Typical applications include laboratory and analytical equipment, medical devices, measuring systems and compact dosing and transfer units. In OEM applications, micropumps can also help implement fluid handling functions in a limited installation space.

Important selection criteria

To ensure that a micropump is suitable for the application, the technical requirements should be clearly defined before selection. Key considerations include:

• the medium to be transferred and its material compatibility
• the required flow rate and operating pressure
• the desired dosing characteristics and operating profile
• the available supply voltage and required control electronics
• the mechanical dimensions and connection requirements

Depending on the pump type, additional requirements may apply, such as tubing material, drive electronics or operating conditions. It is therefore advisable to compare the product specifications with the requirements of the planned system.
