Patent number: 11939968Abstract: Provided is a pumping system that includes a parallel dual chamber pumping mechanism and an attachable disposable cassette. The disposable cassette may include a multi-laminate membrane, which facilitates efficient, accurate and uniform delivery of fluids. The membrane can be held in intimate contact with the pumping fingers of the pumping mechanism by electrostatic or magnetic attraction, thereby allowing the pump to pull a vacuum without the need for a preloaded elastomeric pumping segment.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2020Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Altra, Inc.Inventor: Matthew G. Morris, Jr.
