Industry Products
KD Scientific syringe pumps are an economical solution to delivering precise and smooth flow in research, pilot plants and production applications. They are recognized worldwide for quality, accuracy and reliability. A broad line of syringe pumps are offered: from a simple one syringe infuse only, to a programmable multi-syringe infuse/withdrawal pump. KD Scientific 508.429.6809 Holliston, MA www.kdscientific.com Gareth Jones, product group director, Trace Elemental Analysis, Thermo Fisher Scientific, comments: “Our iCAP 6000 Series delivers outstanding performance, ease-ofuse and low cost-of-ownership, all in a uniquely compact instrument. These benefits are possible because of the expertise, hard work and commitment that goes into producing such a superior analytical solution. Achieving the 2000th-order milestone clearly demonstrates that customers value the instrument’s quality and reliability.” The iCAP 6300 Duo ICP spectrometer features dedicated radial and duo plasma viewing options for enhanced application flexibility. The instrument’s high-efficiency optical design facilitates simultaneous analysis of 66 elements, providing detection limits at less than 1ppb. In addition, the system offers powerful full-frame technology for fingerprinting and retrospective analysis, as well as unique EMT torch technology for routine maintenance operations without switching off the plasma. Laboratories use the iCAP 6000 Series ICP emission spectrometers to detect and measure low levels of toxic elements and a diverse range of pollutant elements in the global environmental, metallurgical, petrochemical, food and pharmaceutical industries. In spring 2009, the iCAP 6000 received a Queens Award for Enterprise as one of the year’s most outstanding technical innovations and it was a finalist in the IMechE Business Innovation of the Year Category of the National Business Awards.

KD Scientific

The Next Generation in Syringe Pumps from KD Scientific he new Legato 200 Series from KD Scientific is the next generation of syringe pumps. The Legato 200 Series offers unparalleled ease of use through the high resolution color touch screen user interface. The full touch screen interface enable the user to quickly create configurations and recall them for easy use. The intuitive run screen combines multiple parameters simultaneously with internationally recognized graphic icons which allow the Legato 200 Series to provide a new level of intuitive syringe pump operation. Three basic models ensure the right pump for your application. Infuse only, Infuse and Withdraw and Push Pull. Each of these pumps is available in a programmable version for maximum flexibility and capability. Each of the basic models work with one syringe or two and can be reconfigured in the field to use with multiple syringes. The Legato Series optimizes laboratory bench space. For limited laboratory space the Legato 200 Series can be placed on its side to reduce the footprint by 4 times. The footprint is only 3.5 in × 9.75 in. The display also tilts with the change to allow the user to operate the pump vertically.

Thermo Fisher Scientific Ships 2000th iCAP 6000 Series ICP Emission Spectrometer
hermo Fisher Scientific Inc. has announced that Bormioli Rocco, a producer of glass and plastic pharmaceutical packaging, glass containers for perfumery and foodstuffs and glass tableware, has purchased and deployed the 2000th Thermo Scientific iCAP 6000 Series inductively coupled plasma (ICP) emission spectrometer. The company relies on ICP emission spectrometry to ensure that alkaline metal concentrations in their glass materials conform to current European legislation. Since deployment, Bormioli Rocco has increased lab productivity while lowering its costs. Bormioli Rocco selected the Thermo Scientific iCAP 6300 Duo ICP for its flexibility and exceptional performance capabilities, which ensure accurate, precise analytical results and higher productivity. Also important was the small footprint of the system, which makes it easier to transport and install, an important benefit for modern labs where bench space is increasingly limited.
