German pump manufacturer KNF has expanded its range of swing piston pumps with the introduction of its new NPK 02 for a wide range of applications where high pressure and quiet operation are required.

According to its developers, the NPK 02 is designed to deliver high performance in a compact form and is ideal for portable medical equipment, including endoscope cleaning systems and diagnostic instruments. It also reportedly enhances the performance of analytical instruments for gas monitoring, inkjet and 3D printing systems, and other compressed air applications, thus delivering consistent, reliable performance across multiple industries.

Capable of maintaining constant high pressures up to 2.1 bar and flow rates up to 1.8 l/min during continuous operation without overheating, makes the NPK 02 swing piston pump ideal for applications where quiet and reliable operation is required. Further, it features a finned pump head for efficient heat dissipation and noise reduction while its material composition minimizes piston seal wear and reduces thermal stress under pressure. Additionally, the pump is highly resistant to chemicals, thereby ensuring long-term reliability.
