Upchurch Scientific ask "Want more production time from your syringe pumps and valves?" Sapphire Engineering, Inc. now offers a complete Pump and Valve Module (PVM) incorporating its integrated piston and valve. The compact PVM is 100 percent compatible with the Cavro XP-3000 syringe pump, but uses a robust, direct-drive leadscrew technology not belts and pulleys. With the integrated piston and valve, this unit will last up to 20 times longer than traditional syringe / valve combinations with no routine maintenance, meaning less downtime and more productivity.
