Flow sensor FLU-XS

medicalhand-held

The FLOW UNITs are bidirectional flow rate sensors compatible for stand-alone use with the Line Up™ controllers, or with any other microfluidic control system such as the MFCS™ series using the Flowboard hub. Available in 5 flow rate ranges, the FLOW UNIT allows for pressure regulation using the DFC (Direct Flow Control) algorithm to monitor or control the system by flow rate instead of pressure. Compact Uses minimum bench space Adaptable Use with or without a PC Intuitive Straight forward set up & use Wide range Measurement from nL to mL Features Tune measurements for various liquids When combined with a FLOW UNIT, one can A scale factor can be added to your measurements when handling other fluids than the liquid for which the flow sensor is calibrated for. For organic solutions, a second calibration with isopropyl alcohol is built-in on the FLOW UNIT models S, M and L. Flow rate measurement The FLOW UNIT is a unique tool to easily monitor flow-rates in any microfluific system with the best precision & accuracy. A micro heater provides a minimal amount of heat to the medium monitored. Two temperature sensors, located on both sides of the heat source, detect temperature variation. The flow-rate is then calculated based on the thermal desorption, which is directly related to the flow-rate. Monitor & Control experiments Flow-rate measurements (bidirectional) for all FLOW UNITs are displayed in FLUIGENT software. An additional function displays and records the dispensed volume for each FLOW UNIT. Flow-rates can be directly controlled with the MFCS™ series and LineUp™ series intruments using the DFC, “self-learning” flow rate control algorithm.
