The Laboratory Dosing Pumps category covers equipment and consumables used to measure, dispense, aspirate, pump and route liquids accurately between vessels, instruments and process steps. These products are not isolated purchases, because their performance is tied to the sample, surrounding equipment and the way the wider method is carried out.
Volume error, unsuitable wetted materials, trapped air and poor connections can affect concentration, recovery and repeatability. The practical choice therefore depends on manual or automated control, volume or flow range, accuracy and precision, and liquid viscosity and chemistry, as well as how frequently the product will be used and how it connects with the rest of the procedure.
The complete fluid path should match the required volume or flow range, liquid properties, tubing and connection sizes, control method and cleaning approach. This coordinated approach is particularly useful in analytical, life-science, chemistry, process-development and quality-control laboratories, where repeatability and clear operating procedures matter. As part of the Laboratory Liquid Handling Equipment range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Dosing Pumps range
Our collection covers a dosing pump and a standard transfer pump, dosing pumps handle highly viscous or abrasive fluids, dosing pumps calibration, cleaning and maintenance, and peristaltic pumps for laboratory dosing, giving laboratories practical choices for routine work and more specialised applications.
A dosing pump and a standard transfer pump
High quality dosing pumps, also known as metering pumps, are specifically designed to move a precise volume of liquid in a specified time period, whereas transfer pumps are generally used for moving large volumes without exact measurement. Selection should take account of manual or automated control, volume or flow range, and accuracy and precision. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories move liquids with the control and compatibility needed from initial preparation through final dispensing. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
Dosing pumps handle highly viscous or abrasive fluids
Many of the professional-grade models, particularly diaphragm and peristaltic dosing pumps, are engineered to handle high-viscosity chemicals and abrasive slurries without compromising accuracy. Key differences are usually found in volume or flow range, accuracy and precision, and liquid viscosity and chemistry. These details affect day-to-day usability as much as the main performance specification. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories move liquids with the control and compatibility needed from initial preparation through final dispensing. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
Laboratory Dosing Pumps calibration, cleaning and maintenance
Many high quality models feature digital inputs, touchscreen interfaces, and networking options like EtherNet/IP for seamless integration into automated facility processes. Selection should take account of accuracy and precision, liquid viscosity and chemistry, and wetted materials. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories move liquids with the control and compatibility needed from initial preparation through final dispensing. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.
Peristaltic pumps for laboratory dosing
High quality peristaltic pumps are ideal for dosing because the fluid only contacts the tubing, making them excellent for sterile applications and preventing cross-contamination. The most suitable format depends on liquid viscosity and chemistry, wetted materials, and connection size. Laboratories should also confirm how the product will be prepared, used, cleaned or disposed of between runs. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories move liquids with the control and compatibility needed from initial preparation through final dispensing. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a dosing pump and a standard transfer pump?
High quality dosing pumps, also known as metering pumps, are specifically designed to move a precise volume of liquid in a specified time period, whereas transfer pumps are generally used for moving large volumes without exact measurement. The final choice should reflect accuracy and precision, liquid viscosity and chemistry, and wetted materials, as these points influence day-to-day compatibility and repeatability.
Can these pumps handle highly viscous or abrasive fluids?
Many of the professional-grade models, particularly diaphragm and peristaltic dosing pumps, are engineered to handle high-viscosity chemicals and abrasive slurries without compromising accuracy. For dosing pumps, also check accuracy and precision, liquid viscosity and chemistry, and wetted materials so the product fits the complete procedure.
Do your laboratory dosing pumps support automation?
Many high quality models feature digital inputs, touchscreen interfaces, and networking options like EtherNet/IP for seamless integration into automated facility processes. The final choice should reflect accuracy and precision, liquid viscosity and chemistry, and wetted materials, as these points influence day-to-day compatibility and repeatability.
Are peristaltic pumps suitable for laboratory dosing?
High quality peristaltic pumps are ideal for dosing because the fluid only contacts the tubing, making them excellent for sterile applications and preventing cross-contamination. For dosing pumps, also check accuracy and precision, liquid viscosity and chemistry, and wetted materials so the product fits the complete procedure.
What should I check before ordering dosing pumps?
Review accuracy and precision, liquid viscosity and chemistry, wetted materials, and connection size, together with expected workload and cleaning or maintenance requirements. A suitable product should fit the full method, not only the immediate task. The final choice should reflect accuracy and precision, liquid viscosity and chemistry, and wetted materials, as these points influence day-to-day compatibility and repeatability.
