A new level of accuracy for precision liquid handling

The Cavro Centris Pump is a premium compact syringe pump module for use in OEM laboratory instruments, setting new standards for accuracy, reliability and precision. It has a broader working volume range from a single syringe size than comparable OEM pumps, enabling you to do more with one pump than ever before.

Offering extremely precise flow rate control, the Cavro Centris is the perfect fit for microfluidic, chromatography, flow cytometry and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) instruments requiring smooth liquid flow with very low pulsation.

In addition, the high resolution Cavro Centris allows ultra-high precision for small volume pipetting to support assay miniaturization.

Highlights

  • Excellent accuracy and precision at low volumes saves precious reagents
  • Robust and reliable design results in long life and less maintenance
  • Innovative drive mechanism offers broader dynamic range
