Syringe Speed
Speed [Hz]
V
c
v
start speed (v)
The speed at which the syringe plunger starts moving.
top speed (V)
The maximum speed at which the syringe plunger moves.
cutoff speed (c)
The speed of the syringe plunger just before stopping.
slope (L)
Acceleration (deceleration) of the syringe plunger between start speed, top
speed, and cutoff speed.
volume calculation
The volume aspirated or dispensed when the syringe plunger moves a
specified number of increments depending on the syringe size. To determine
the number of increments required to aspirate or dispense a given volume,
use the following formula:
# of increments = (pump resolution) x volume
For example, to aspirate 100 µL using an XLP 6000 pump with 1 mL syringe,
move the plunger as follows:
# of increments = 6000 increments x 100 µL = 300 increments
