Gilson MINIPULS 3 Peristaltic Pump

The Gilson MINIPULS 3 Peristaltic Pump is a compact, high-performance peristaltic pump designed for accurate, low-pulsation liquid transfer across a wide range of laboratory applications. Using positive displacement technology with up to ten stainless steel rollers, it delivers a smooth, near pulse-free flow while preserving the integrity of the liquid’s critical components. Interchangeable pump heads provide flexibility across multiple workflows, allowing users to adapt flow rates and channel configurations without modifying core system components.

Six model configurations are available to accommodate varying throughput requirements: four standard models offering 1, 2, 4, or 8 channels with flow rates from 0.3 μL/min to 30 mL/min, and two high-flow models with 2 or 4 channels supporting flow rates from 1 mL/min to 220 mL/min. The peristaltic pump system is designed for straightforward operation, featuring a clear LCD display and keypad controls for adjusting flow rate, direction, and priming functions. Remote operation capability and a robust, easy-to-maintain design make it suitable for both routine and more demanding liquid handling tasks.
