IPS Series, IPS-12RS Syringe Pump, Infusion & Withdrawal, Single Syringe Capacity with 5 Operation Modes and 5 Recipes for Vet, Lab Home use, Non-Medical Pump

Description

Product Overview

The IPS-12RS syringe pump, part of the IPS Series, is engineered for precision dosing in a variety of non‑medical environments. Constructed from high‑grade steel, the pump offers durability and resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for both laboratory benches and field work. Its compact dimensions of 6.7 x 8.3 x 5.4 inches and a weight of 4.85 pounds allow easy placement on any work surface while maintaining stability during operation.

Equipped with a 4.3‑inch resistive touch TFT LCD screen, the user interface is both intuitive and responsive. The microcontroller software provides real‑time feedback on flow rates, volume dispensed, and operational status, reducing the learning curve for new users. The pump supports both infusion and withdrawal modes, enabling forward and backward fluid movement without the need for additional accessories.

One of the standout features is the five‑step operation mode, which lets users select from predefined profiles such as constant rate, ramp up, ramp down, stepwise, and custom. Each mode can be fine‑tuned on the fly, allowing adjustments to flow rate even during an ongoing process. This flexibility is complemented by the ability to save and recall up to five distinct recipes, ensuring repeatability across experiments.

Technical specifications include a model number IPS12RS, a first‑available date of February 10, 2021, and compliance with industry standards for dosing pumps. The device holds a single syringe, with capacity options ranging from 1 ml to 50 ml, depending on the syringe selected. Its power supply operates on a standard 110‑220 V AC source, with an internal battery backup that provides up to 30 minutes of operation during power interruptions.

Usage

The IPS‑12RS is designed for versatility across veterinary clinics, academic laboratories, and even home research setups. In veterinary settings, the pump can administer precise medication doses to small animals, ensuring accurate therapeutic outcomes while minimizing stress on the patient. Its steel construction and easy‑to‑clean design meet the hygiene standards required in animal care environments.

In laboratory applications, researchers benefit from the pump’s ability to execute complex dosing protocols without manual intervention. Whether conducting enzyme kinetics, cell culture media exchanges, or chemical synthesis, the five operation modes and recipe memory streamline workflow and improve reproducibility. The pump’s compact footprint makes it ideal for bench‑top integration alongside other analytical instruments.

For home enthusiasts and hobbyists, the IPS‑12RS offers a professional‑grade tool for DIY biology projects, such as microfluidic experiments or small‑scale fermentation processes. The user‑friendly interface and clear LCD readout empower users with limited technical background to achieve accurate fluid handling, fostering a deeper engagement with scientific experimentation.
