MP-SC Mini Peristaltic Single-Channel Pump
The MP-SC Mini Peristaltic Single-Channel Pump by Hugo Sachs Elektronik is an ultra-compact peristaltic pump ideal for precise, single-line perfusion in isolated organ systems, electrophysiology imaging, and other space-constrained lab setups. Its 4-roller pump head with a multiturn speed dial and lock ensures reproducible flow rates from 0.004 to 40 mL/min. With analog external control and compatibility with the Hugo Sachs constant-pressure perfusion module, it integrates easily into complex experimental configurations.

What is the MP-SC Mini Peristaltic Single-Channel Pump?
The MP-SC Mini Peristaltic Single-Channel Pump by Hugo Sachs Elektronik is a compact, precision peristaltic pump built for exact perfusion in space-constrained laboratory environments. Whether used in isolated organ systems, electrophysiology imaging setups, or general laboratory perfusion workflows, the MP-SC delivers smooth, low-pulsation flow with reliable, reproducible speed control.
The MP-SC features a compact 4-roller pump head with a multiturn speed dial and mechanical lock, ensuring operators can return to a precise flow setting across experiments. It accepts external analog voltage (0–5V or 0–10V via BNC connector) for integration with automated control systems or DAQ hardware.
Constant Pressure Perfusion
When paired with the Hugo Sachs APT300 pressure transducer, TAM-D amplifier, and SCP control module, the MP-SC enables constant pressure perfusion with real-time flow rate display and calibration on the SCP module. Turnkey setups for a variety of applications are available from Hugo Sachs Elektronik.

The MP-SC pump is widely used in single-channel perfusion experiments, including isolated organ systems, electrophysiology imaging setups, and constant pressure perfusion protocols in neuroscience and physiology research.
What is the MP-SC Mini Peristaltic Single-Channel Pump used for?
The MP-SC is a compact single-channel peristaltic pump from Harvard Apparatus designed for low-pulsation fluid delivery in cell culture perfusion, microfluidic chip feeding, organ-on-chip systems, and any single-line application requiring smooth, controllable flow.
What flow rate range does the MP-SC cover?
The MP-SC covers a wide rate range from low microliters per minute up to several mL/min, depending on the tubing inner diameter selected, enabling everything from slow drug perfusion of patch-clamp recordings to faster media exchange in organoid culture.
Is the MP-SC suitable for sterile bioprocess applications?
Yes — the MP-SC uses standard biocompatible peristaltic tubing (silicone, PharMed BPT, Tygon), so the fluid path is fully enclosed in disposable sterilizable tubing and never contacts the pump mechanism, supporting sterile cell culture and bioprocess use.
What is the MP-SC catalog number?
The MP-SC Mini Peristaltic Single-Channel Pump is Harvard Apparatus catalog number 735356. Contact NBT for current tubing kits, holders, and accessory options.
Can the MP-SC be used in microfluidic and organ-on-chip systems?
Yes — the MP-SC's low pulsation and fine flow control make it well suited for feeding microfluidic chips and organ-on-chip devices, including liver, kidney, gut, and blood-brain-barrier models that require steady, physiological perfusion rates.
