Pump Speed Sets the speed of the syringe pump to the selected rate. Use slower
speeds for higher viscosity media or media containing surfactant.
Higher pump speeds may be used for less viscous media. The pump
speed may also be reduced to improve volume accuracy.
Aspiration Dwell Time Sets the time (in seconds) that the syringe pauses after pulling in liquid
prior to dispensing. This setting may need to be increased to maintain
volume accuracy for certain types of dissolution media. The Dwell
Time is automatically adjusted (3-second minimum) when filtration is
enabled.
