Abstract

The invention provides a system for pumping a fluid through a target unit, comprising a source of compressed gas, a gas circuit connected to said source of compressed gas and including gas flow control apparatus, a first connection and a second connection for connecting to, respectively, afferent and efferent ends of the target unit, a fluid flow circuit in fluid communication with said first and second connections, the fluid flow circuit including fluid control apparatus and a first and second fluid reservoir, wherein the gas flow control apparatus provides coordinated delivery and release of compressed gas to dynamically control fluid level in each of said first and second fluid reservoirs in order to provide, by way of operation of the fluid control apparatus in the fluid flow circuit, continuous fluid flow through the target unit in a single direction in accordance with a predetermined flow profile.
