With development based on extensive feedback from customers, Watson-Marlow Pumps Group has launched its new 120 peristaltic pump range.  

Ultimately the 120 pumps have been developed to increase the low-flow capabilities of the company's product range for applications in the biopharm and laboratory sectors. The market need is well understood, with customers voicing their own mantra, "keep it small, keep it simple". As a result, Watson-Marlow has produced a pump that is focussed on size, performance and ease-of-use.

Eric W. Johnson at Novozymes Inc, who was one of the first people to use the new 120 pump comments: "I love simple and this has a small footprint without a lot of bells and whistles.  Easy menu, short learning curve, improved performance, and hopefully zero maintenance, have generally left me very impressed and satisfied with this unit." 

Small and simple

New 120 pumps measure just 110mm in width which is significantly smaller than most pumps offering similar flow rates, and benefit from an intuitive interface which makes them quick and simple to set-up and reduces the number of key presses and potential errors.  

Providing an exceptional 2,000:1 speed range (speed accuracy ±1%) and a choice of five pumpheads, flow rates range from microlitres to 190 ml/min through a single channel or up to three individual channels of flow.  

Viewers of the dedicated 120 pump microsite - www.wmpg120.com are able to explore all the technical attributes of the pump and download brochures and datasheets in five languages.
