Challenge: Moving the test sample through the fluidics card while maintaining consistent pressures to the flow paths with no leakage.

Solution: Our G010 Series low leak solenoid valves controlled the pressure signals, ensuring the system didn’t experience any pressure loss throughout the life of the device.

Challenge: Controlling up to 150+ flow paths while maintaining the smallest footprint possible and reducing the possibility of leaks and assembly errors.

Solution: Our 005 Series micro solenoid valve manifold met the performance and envelope requirements. Providing the complete sub-assembly ensured accurate and fast installation.

Challenge: Keeping the control for the microfluidic cartridge membrane valves small, simple, and easy to install. (Competitive solutions were too large and highly complex.)

Solution: Our fully-integrated, custom solution using MBDA Series actuators and 005 Series valves kept the system complexity to a minimum, reduced potential leak points, and streamlined overall installation.

Challenge: Maintaining a precise level of clean, dry compressed air in a small, efficient assembly while sourcing parts from multiple suppliers.

Solution: Utilizing the breadth of our product line and compact compressed air treatment components, including our FDH Series membrane dryer, we provided a complete assembly that met the required filtration and dew point levels.

Challenge: Finding compact, high-flow, and quiet operating fluid control valves for mixing and dispensing of the proprietary fluid.

Solution: Through a modification to the solenoid on our PVR Series media isolation valve, we provided a custom assembly that met the OEM’s application requirements while sufficiently reducing operating noise.

Challenge: Finding a solenoid valve small and lightweight enough to be easily mounted and plumbed directly on a PCB. The valve also needed to allow high flow with low air leakage for quick and consistent calibration of the system sensors.

Solution: At only 5.9 mm wide, our 005 Series high-flow, low-leak micro 3-way valve was easily mounted onto the circuit board, and its built-in barb fittings allowed for quick pneumatic connections.
