How accurate are your pumps?
Much better than 1% of dispense rate and volume. Please contact us to have our engineers determine whether the equipment will meet the level of accuracy that you require. We would be happy to assist you.

What kind of flow rates can your pumps handle?
We have more pump models and options then listed on our web site. Please contact us to determine a pump model that will meet your specifications. Flow rates vary with syringe size and/or tubing. Pressure and viscosity also determine proper pump selection. The following are example flow rates for a sample of syringes with the model NE-1000 single syringe pump. Higher flow rates are available.

Are your pumps compatible with electrospinning?
Yes, New Era Pump Systems, Inc. syringe pumps are in use throughout the world
for electrospinning applications. Our research papers webpage list some of the
universities that have used our syringe pumps with electrospinning applications. Please
also be aware that special precautions are necessary with electrospinning such as using a cage to protect the pump from sparks and using a linear power supply. We offer a special pump power supply for use with electrospinning. Contact us to discuss your application.

|
Are your pumps compatible with our software?
The pumps with RS-232 ports can communicate with any software that is compatible with serial communications.
If the computer does not have a RS-232 serial port, we offer a USB to RS-232 converter.
The pumps are compatible with LabView and similar software. There is no special driver necessary. We do have example programs available. We also offer free terminal emulator software.
We also provide a Pumping Program Generator spreadsheet with a one-click up-load to the pumps.

Will the syringe or peristaltic pump work with my viscous liquid?
- Syringe Pumps: Rule of thumb is if you can push or pull the syringe with your
hand, then we have a pump that can push or pull the syringe. To reduce viscosity, you can utilize our Syringe Heater Kit. Warming up the fluid may reduce the viscosity.
- Peristaltic Pumps: Rule of thumb is if the liquid freely flows by itself, the peristaltic pump can move your liquid.
