Pump Speed and Sample Uptake Calculator

Step 1

Select your ICP model, or choose “Custom Inputs” to enter your pump measurements.

Advanced / pump measurements

Preset measurements are read-only. Choose “Custom Inputs” to enter a different pump configuration.

Step 2

Select the colour and internal diameter (ID) of your pump tubing.

Calculate

Choose what to calculate, then enter your target uptake or actual pump speed. Your estimate updates automatically.

Starting example: 300 µL/min (0.3 mL/min). Enter the target for your method.

Pump speed is in revolutions per minute (rpm). Convert any instrument setting expressed in other units before entering it here.

Select an ICP model and pump tubing to calculate an estimate.

This calculation is a guide only. Tubing variation, wear and roller pressure affect actual uptake. Confirm the flow on your instrument before using the estimated setting.
