Are your pumps good for electrospinning?
Yes, New Era Pump Systems, Inc. syringe pumps are in use throughout the world
for electrospinning applications. You can reference some university studies
on our
research papers webpage here will show the
universities that have used our syringe pumps for electrospinning research. Please
also be aware that any of our OEM series pumps, NE-500 and NE-4500 models are
NOT recommended for electrospinning applications.
If you are new to electrospinning, please contact us at info@syringepump.com for
details as to how to properly perform electrospinning.
|
|
| Are your pumps compatible with our software?
The pumps can communicate with any software that is compatible with RS-232.
If the software isn't compatible with RS-232, it will need a RS-232 converter.
The pumps are compatible with Labview. There is no driver necessary, however, it will work with a driver as well.

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