Royston, UK (12^th March 2010) - Leading chemistry automation product innovator, Syrris is delighted to announce the launch of its new Asia Syringe Pump. Designed specifically for flow chemistry, the Asia Pump is rated to 20 bar (300 psi) and highly chemically resistant using PTFE (and other fluorinated polymers) and glass. This compact module offers two independent continuous flow channels, each with an integrated pressure sensor and a flow rate range from 1.0 µl to 10 ml/min.  

With the ability to provide an extremely smooth flow rate, the compact pump is only 23 cm wide, making it ideal for in-lab use.  Furthermore, the replacement of components such as valves, syringes or pressure sensors is extremely quick and easy, without the need for any tools. Produced to the highest specifications, flow rate and volume can easily be controlled using the intuitive front panel, or via the Asia PC software. The PTFE pressure sensor ensures safe operation by automatically stopping the pumps in the case of over pressure. 

Specifically designed for use with the Asia Syringe Pump, the Asia Pressurized Input Store enables four reagents to be stored under an inert gas atmosphere. As a result, an ultra-smooth flow is delivered due to the 1 bar pressure significantly reducing the formation of gas bubbles.
