Peristaltic pump 410 – Compact and lightweight
The Solinst 410 peristaltic pump is designed for field use. It is ideal for steam sampling or water sampling from shallow wells and surface waters. It can be used for vacuum pumping and for pressurizing liquids or gases.
The mechanical peristaltic operation uses rotating rollers to push down the silicone tubing. This creates a vacuum that displaces any liquid or gas in the selected direction. It is effective to depths up to the suction lift limit, which varies with altitude, and can be as much as 10 m at sea level.
The unit features a clear pump head that allows for quick, convenient inspection of the pump head tubing before and during operation. The pump head cover is easy to remove for cleaning or tubing replacement. The pump head tubing guide is designed to hold the tubing in place during sampling. No additional tubing clamps are required.
A 3 m (10 ft) power cable uses alligator clips to connect to almost any 12 volt DC power source that can deliver at least 3-5 amps at maximum draw (e.g. auto, marine, or small gel cell battery). Connect an optional 12V battery holder to the pump and conveniently add a battery right to the unit. The pump can also be connected directly to your vehicle’s battery.
The variable speed motor is reversible, has an easy-to-reset switch (no fuse to replace) and has reverse polarity protection to prevent damage to the pump.
