This syringe pump has a new mechanism that includes a tight gripping, more secure syringe clamp for syringes ranging from 0.5ul to 10 ml (dual channel version) or 0.5 ul to 60 ml (single channel version). The Pump 11 Pico Plus Elite offers enhanced flow performance with high accuracy and smooth flow from 0.54 pl/min to 11.70 ml/min (dual channel version) or 0.54 pl/min to 39.77 ml (single channel version).

The Pump 11 Pico Plus Elite is an Infusion/Withdrawal Programmable Syringe Pump available in single or dual syringe configurations. This pump has advanced connectivity with a footswitch, USB serial port for computer control, RS-485 (or optional RJ-ll) ports for daisy chaining pumps and Digital I/O for remote control.

Since 1901 Harvard Apparatus has been supporting bioresearch fluidics requirements with the culmination being the introduction of the first commercial syringe pump for bioresearch in 1956. Since 1956, over 70,000 satisfied syringe pump users around the world have made Harvard Apparatus syringe pumps the worlds #1 choice.

The Pump 11 Pico Plus Elite is a low flow syringe pump designed for use in applications including: microdialysis, microfluidics, cellular injections and fluid sampling.


Program Description

To operate the Pump 11 Pico Plus Elite, the user defines all the required parameters for infusing or withdrawing liquids through a Pump Control Method. The basic operation is a simple 4-step procedure:

1. Select a method
2. Enter operating parameters
3. Preview your method
4. Run your method.
Advanced Programming Features

Constant Rate
Ramp
Gradients
% composition (up to two solvents)
Autofill
I/O — dedicated and user defined I/O

Easy-to-Use Interface

The Pump 11 Pico Plus Elite color LCD touch screen graphic user interface is divided into three basic areas: Operations Display, Message Area, and Navigation. This configuration allows you to easily move through all menu selections and data entry by gently touching the onscreen buttons with a finger or the tip of a soft, non-sharp object such as a pencil eraser.

The Methods Main or Quick Start screens are the primary set up screens for the applications. From those screens you can access all the commands needed to operate the Pump 11 Elite, as well as the main system settings.

The Message Area of the touch screen is used to display helpful instructions for the currently displayed screen. It is also used to display error or warning messages to indicate problem conditions in a Method or error conditions during pump operation.

The software is organized into three main navigational branches, the quick start Methods, user-defined Methods, and system settings. You can control operations directly with the touch screen or remotely from an independent computer or device via the external I/O interface. Advanced GLP Documentation Features:

Download experimental parameter information to PC
Alpha/numeric keypad for method naming

Accessories

A full range of accessories are compatible with the Pump 11 Pico Plus Elite including syringe heaters, connectors, tubing, syringes and more.
