CONSTANT TEMPERATURE DISPOSABLE RESERVOIR FOR USE WITH VOLUMETRIC FLUID DISPENSING APPARATUS
Application 964/DEL/2005 published 2006-11-10, filed 2005-04-15
A system and method for controlling the temperature of the fluid in a volumetric dispensing apparatus, without the need for a controlled ambient environment. The reservoir used to hold the fluid prior to dispensing is maintained at a controlled surround, such as a water jacket. This ensures uniform fluid properties, such as viscosity and density, thereby guaranteeing that accurate volumes will be dispensed. Methods for controlling the temperature within the encased reservoir are also disclosed.
