Why choose Instech?

If you're familiar with industrial pumps, like Harvard Apparatus, KD Scientific, New Era or Chemyx...

  • For animal safety. The pump monitors pressure to alert you to occlusions before they become a disaster.
  • For data quality. Monitoring for occlusions gives you confidence your dose went into the animal, not the bedding.
  • For superior flow performance. It has smoother flow on the low end and higher speeds on the top end.

If you're familiar with pumps originally designed for human medicine, like Baxter/SAI, OrchesTA or Medfusion...

  • For ease of use. The pump features a modern touchscreen and a simplicity that hospital pumps can't match.
  • For accuracy. Rigid construction and a unique clutchless design lead to accuracy of ±0.5% compared to 2-3% for most clinical pumps.
  • For low flow studies. With smooth microliter flow rates, the pump is ideal for intrathecal dosing, microdialysis and mouse infusion, applications where pumps designed for humans become useless.
  • For lower cost. The pump has the safety features of a clinical pump but the price of a laboratory pump, and design that's at the beginning of its life not the end.
