New Era NE-8000 High Pressure Programmable Single Syringe Pump

Model NE-1000 produces about 15 lbs of linear force at top speed and about 35 lbs at slow speeds. 10 mL/hr is an example of slow speed. The pressure that can be generated is relative to the syringe size. On a 60 mL syringe, this would roughly produce about 30 psi.

Model NE-1010 doubles the pumping force at equivalent speeds of the NE-1000, plus increases the maximum flow rate.

Model NE-8000 is a more rugged, even higher force, single syringe pump with a top force of 200 lbs.

200 lbs Maximum Force:

The NE-8000 produces about 200 lbs of linear force at slow speeds and 100 lbs at top speed. Pressure output is relative to the syringe size.

Example Flow Rates NE-8000:

Syringe Size	Maximum Rate	Minimum Rate
0.5 µL	150.1 µL/hr	0.001 µL/hr
1 mL	311.3 mL/hr	1.726 µL/hr
3 mL	1317 mL/hr	7.306 µL/hr
5 mL	2193 mL/hr	12.17 µL/hr
10 mL	3577 mL/hr	19.84 µL/hr
20 mL	5689 mL/hr	31.54 µL/hr
30 mL	7421 mL/hr	41.15 µL/hr
50 mL	201.1 mL/min	66.9 µL/hr
140 mL	340.6 mL/min	113.3 µL/hr

Special Application: Continuous Infusion (Push-Pull) and Dual Syringe Pump

Using 2 NE-8000 pumps attached with a cable, one pump will infuse while the other pump refills or have simultaneous infusion.

Pump Programming:

• One-click program upload from "Pumping Program Generator" spreadsheet
• Up to 340 programmable phases
• Enter programs from the keypad or from a computer.
• Download or upload pumping programs from or to a computer. Store dispensing programs in a file on your computer, then upload them to one or more pumps. Specify in the file to send a different pumping program to each pump in the pump network.
• Pre-program dispense volumes. Each volume can be different.
• Automatically change pumping rates or pumping direction.
• Ramp up or down the pumping rate.
• Set timed delays between dispenses.
• Automatically pause the program and wait for the user to continue the dispense.
• Synchronize dispenses with other equipment or pumps to change pumping rates in reaction to a sensor or signals from other pumps.
• Send logic signals to other equipment. Change pumping rates in reaction to a sensor.
• Program the audible alarm to beep at any time to alert the operator.

Bi-Directional RS-232 Interface

• Network up to 100 pumps from a single communications port on a computer. Baud rates up to 19200.
• Free terminal emulator program allows communications with syringe pump.
• Directly control one or more pumps from a computer, including setting the pumping rate, direction and volume. Set the operational and setup configurations. Also the TTL interface can be queried and the programmable output set.
• Using a computer, each pump in the pump network can be individually controlled and monitored. Or, the computer can download a new pumping program to each pump which would automatically reconfigure the dispensing system for a new job.
• Downloading control programs to the pump would unload computer overhead to the pump. computer resources could then be used elsewhere while the pumps operate independently.
• 2 modes of communications: Basic and Safe
• Basic: Basic master-slave interface. Easy to implement. Can communicate from any terminal emulator.
• Safe: A reliable interface for a real-world environment.
• High quality interface which detects communication errors via a 16 bit CCITT CRC.
• The pump will automatically transmit an alarm packet when a pump alarm occurs. For instance, if the pump stalls or resets, a message is immediately sent to the computer.
• A configurable communications time-out will stop the pump and alarm if the communications link is broken.
• Packet inter-character time-out to recover packet synchronization after communication glitches.
• Software Developer friendly communications protocol.
• Consistent and well defined communications packets.
• Constant start and end characters.
• Packets structured to be easily parsed

TTL Logic Contol Interface

• Control the pump from a foot switch or timer.
• Output signals can be used to switch a valve from an output to an input reservoir.
• Keypad Lockout: Prevent unauthorized or accidental changes to the settings by requiring a "Lockout Disable" key to be inserted to change settings.
• Pumping direction control
• Programmable output signal
• Programmable responses to input signals
• Configurable start and stop trigger:
• Start or stop the pump on each contact closure to ground. For example, a foot switch.
• Start the pump on closure to ground and stop the pump on opening the connection. For example a timer relay that starts the pump whenever closed and stops the pump whenever open.
• Only start the pump on each contact closure to ground. For example, a laboratory animal trained to press a lever can receive a drug dosage from the pump and the pump will not stop or deliver another dosage until it is permitted by the pumping program entered by the user
• Configurable trigger input:
• Edge trigger: Starts or stops the pump, such as from a foot switch
• Level trigger: Start or stops the pump, such as from a timer or relay control
• Start only trigger: Edge trigger will only start the pump, such as from a lab animal trained to press a lever to receive a dosage.
