Masterflex I/P Easy-Load Pump Head
Overview
The Masterflex I/P Easy-Load Pump Head is designed for high-flow precision metering and transfer applications. This model features a patented occlusion mechanism that simplifies tubing changes and ensures consistent pressure performance across various tubing sizes.
Highlights
- Easy-Load design allows for rapid tubing replacement without removing the head from the drive.
- Four-roller rotor assembly reduces flow pulsation and enhances mechanical stability.
- Automatic tubing retention minimizes manual adjustments and ensures repeatable flow rates.
- Chemical-resistant cold-rolled steel and polysulfone construction for durability in laboratory environments.

- Compatibility
- Masterflex I/P Precision and High-Performance Precision pump tubing (I/P 26, 73, 82)
- Condition
- Surplus/second-hand; stored under manufacturer-recommended conditions.
Applications
Commonly utilized for large-scale cell culture media transfer, chemical processing, and industrial fermentation. It is suitable for sensitive fluid handling in microbiology and environmental water sampling where cross-contamination must be avoided through peristaltic action.
Sustainability
By rehoming surplus lab products, this listing supports waste reduction and resource efficiency.
Responsible use & safety
- Require training/authorization before use.
- Inspect before operation; do not use if safety features are compromised.
- Follow manufacturer's manual for operation and maintenance.
- Ensure tubing is correctly seated in the occlusion bed to prevent rupture or leaks.
