What is the MP-MC Mini Peristaltic Multi-Channel Pump?

The MP-MC Mini Peristaltic Multi-Channel Pump by Hugo Sachs Elektronik is a compact, multi-channel peristaltic pump designed for precise perfusion in space-constrained laboratory setups. Available in two configurations — the MP-MC2 (2-channel) and MP-MC4 (4-channel) — it is ideal for isolated organ systems, electrophysiology imaging, and other demanding perfusion applications where consistent, low-pulsation flow across multiple lines is critical.

Powered by an integrated stepper motor with electronic control, the MP-MC delivers smooth, reproducible flow across its channels. Speed is adjustable via a multiturn potentiometer on the top panel, and the pump also accepts external analog voltage control (0–5V or 0–10V via BNC connector), making it straightforward to integrate into existing automated setups.

Constant Pressure Perfusion

When paired with the Hugo Sachs APT300 pressure transducer, TAM-D amplifier, and SCP control module, the MP-MC enables constant pressure perfusion. In this configuration, the SCP module can display and calibrate the actual flow rate, giving researchers precise, real-time feedback. Turnkey setups for a variety of perfusion applications are available from Hugo Sachs Elektronik.
