New & improved microfluidic valves and bubble trap!

Discover not one, but three new Elveflow instruments to properly send off 2020!

#1 MUX Recirculation

The MUX RECIRCULATION is a microfluidic bidirectional 6-port / 2-position valve. When paired with the OB1 MKIII+, it can perform stable and unidirectional fluid recirculation.

• 6-port/2-position valve
• Low internal volume: 2,5 µL
• Port to port switching time: 180ms
• PTFE: high chemical compatibility (organic solvents)
• Standard 1/4-28 microfluidic fittings
• New casing

#2 MUX Distribution

The MUX DISTRIBUTION valve is a bidirectional 12 position/13-port valve which can be used to sequentially inject or select up to 12 different fluids:

• 1 liquid sample into 12 different microfluidic lines
• 12 liquid samples into 1 microfluidic line
• Low internal volume: 3,5 µL
• Port to port switching time: 156ms
• PTFE: high chemical compatibility (organic solvents)
• New casing
• Standard 1/4-28 microfluidic fittings

#3 Bubble trap – 3 sizes!

The Elveflow Bubble Trap is a simple yet effective device designed for in-line bubble removal in aqueous streams. The simple construction of the trap, combined with the high grade materials used, makes it a very straightforward device, that allows quick in-line connection while requiring minimal maintenance.

• Robust design suitable for autoclaving (to avoid contaminations)
• Very low maintenance due to high grade material used, 
• 2 spare replacement membranes included to ensure continuous performance over time.
• Compatible with state-of-the art protocols due to the biocompatible and chemically resistant PEEK and PTFE materials used.
• Suitable with standard 1/4”-28 Fittings to use 1/16” or 1/32” OD tubing
• Suitable for flow rates up to 6mL/min

The Elveflow Bubble Trap is available in 3 sizes (S, M, L). The 3 versions are :

• 44 µL internal volume: S
• 97 µL internal volume: M
• 320 µL internal volume: L
