Description
A turn-key modular pressure control system for actuation and transport of gases and fluids in miniature/micro-size channels and volumes.
Application Areas
Microfluidics, chemical and biochemical analytics, Diagnostic assays, biological cell culturing and handling, chemical synthesis, and others.
Features
- Up to 5 individually and independently controllable pressure channels, no external pumps needed
- Positive pressure 0 to +500 mbar
- Negative pressure (vacuum) 0 to -350 mbar
- Additional external manifold with up to 6 individual switchable output pressure channels, toggling between any two pressure channels
- SMC one touch connectors with 1.2 mm tubing
- Integrated macro language for multichannel pressure program generation
- Measurement/automation integration with external instruments via external I/O channels or the network- VXI-11 protocol, fully controllable through the macro language
Control Options
- On instrument: Encoder wheel/push button & 1.8” front color display.
– No software installation required.
– No external computer required. - Remote securely via WLAN or LAN with any common smartphone (iphone, android…) or personal computer.
Pure HTML/Javascript/CSS WEBgui (No software installation required). - Remote securely through the internet
