Ultra high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) pumps are precision instruments engineered to deliver solvents at high pressures and maintain consistent flow rates within UHPLC systems. Their primary role is to transport the mobile phase through the chromatographic column, facilitating efficient separation of compounds. Operating at pressures typically above 15,000 psi, these pumps enable faster and higher-resolution analyses compared to traditional high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems.

The main categories of UHPLC pumps include binary pumps, quaternary pumps, isocratic pumps, and gradient pumps. Binary pumps are a type of liquid chromatography pump system that utilizes two solvent channels to deliver a mixed mobile phase. These pumps incorporate various technologies such as electromechanical, pneumatic, and digital systems, with flow rate capacities divided into low (up to 1 ml/min), medium (1-10 ml/min), and high (over 10 ml/min). They find applications in industries like pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, environmental testing, food and beverage analysis, and clinical research, serving users such as research laboratories, quality control labs, contract research organizations (CROs), academic institutions, and manufacturing companies.
