BlueShadow Pump 40P

The BlueShadow pump 40P was designed to provide exceptionally precise and reliable solvent delivery for a wide range of HPLC applications in quality control and testing as well as research and method development.Two exchangeable pump heads allow a wide range of flow rates with one pump. Practically pulse-free flow is achieved by our enhanced smart drive control which actively prevents pressure ripple instead of just dampening it. The improved design also ensures a low dead volume. The BlueShadow pump 40P is available in two different versions, either the pump only or fully developed with mixing chamber and low pressure gradient module.The pump can deliver flows at pressures in differents ranges 

Key features

  • Isocratic analytical HPLC pump offers wide range of flow rates (0.001-10 ml/min)

  • Flexible 1/16“ capillaries

  • Pump version for biocompatible applications

  • Integrated compressibility compensation

Different types of pump:

  1. BlueShadow Pump 40P with 10 ml pump head, ceramic

  2. BlueShadow Pump 40P with 10 ml pump head, ceramic, LPG, mixer (The quaternary pump contains one high pressure pump (700 bar) and an integrated LPG mixing block with a 4 inlet proportioning valve a low-volume mixer)

  3. BlueShadow Pump 40P with 10 ml pump head, stainless steel, optimized for normal phase applications

  4. BlueShadow Pump 40P with 10 ml pump head, stainless steel

  5. BlueShadow Pump 40P with 10 ml pump head, stainless steel, LPG, mixer

  6. BlueShadow Pump 40P with 50 ml pump head, ceramic

  7. BlueShadow Pump 40P with 50 ml pump head, stainless steel
