Pressure Pump for Microfluidics

Pressure-Driven Pump for gas-controlled experiments

Precise gas & liquid control

Supports simultaneous pumping of multiple gases and liquids

Integrated flow sensor

Real-time monitoring is built-in

Stable & pulsation-free flow

Pressure-driven operation ensures consistent flow rates

Next-generation control for microfluidics, chemical and biological applications

Inconsistencies can compromise the results of underflow experiments requiring precise gas concentrations. Unlike most conventional pressure-driven pumps, which tend to mix atmospheric gas with the compressed gas input, thereby compromising concentration, our pressure pump is specifically engineered to maintain the desired gas concentration throughout the process. This ensures the gas input remains true to its intended composition.

 

Additionally, the design allows multiple gases to feed each channel independently, broadening its applications across both biological and chemical research. Whether used for multi-gas perfusioncontrolled atmosphere studies, or intricate chemical reactions, the pump delivers exceptional performance. 

 

Moreover, it integrates a flow sensor for real-time monitoring. This approach provides a balanced solution that ensures accurate flow regulation while minimizing complexity, making it an ideal choice for high-precision applications.
