PVM Laboratory Pumps and IPVs

Fluid handling is a common need in most labs. With smaller dispense requirements and longer-to-continuous duty operations, smaller more accurate and robust pumping solutions are necessary. To meet these needs, we now offer pumping solutions from sister IDEX® Corporation business units: revolutionary ISMATEC® peristaltic pumps and innovative Sapphire Engineering™ syringe pump alternatives (PVMs and IPVs).
