The 300 Series laboratory pumps are a benchtop solution for pumping liquids with manual, remote, analogue or RS232 control capabilities. The 323 Series pumps feature a chemically resistant ABS top and IP31 protection, a membrane keypad for pump control, and a digital LCD to display speed.
Four models with increasing functionality are available: 323Du High-flow pumps with enhanced RS232/auto/manual control 323U and 323U pumps with analogue auto and enhanced manual control 323S High-flow manual control pumps 323E Manual control pumps
The Watson-Marlow 300 Series is a versatile range of laboratory peristaltic pumps engineered for applications requiring higher flow rates, flexible control, and reliable fluid handling. Delivering flow rates of up to 3,000 mL/min, the series supports a wide range of compatible pumpheads, making it ideal for research laboratories, pilot plants, and OEM equipment.
The range includes drive options with manual, analogue, remote, and digital control, including RS232 connectivity, allowing seamless integration into automated laboratory systems, test rigs, and process development equipment.
A key advantage of the 300 Series is its compatibility with multiple pumphead configurations—from standard single-channel models for continuous transfer to multi-channel microcassette pumpheads for precision laboratory dosing. This enables a single drive to support a wide variety of applications without the need to replace the pump.
The drive features a chemically resistant ABS enclosure, a digital LCD display, and a membrane keypad for intuitive operation. Functions such as keypad lock, reverse operation, and MemoDose help ensure consistent, repeatable performance while protecting operator settings and simplifying routine operation
Applications
