Advanced Valve Hub

Use case of Elveflow's custom microfluidic instruments

OEM

Valve Hub

Engineered to simplify control over up to 16 valves effortlessly, this module ensures smooth operations with ease.

SEAMLESS AUTOMATION FOR COMPLEX SYSTEMS

Automation capabilities are optimized with the control of up to 16 valves with a single controller.

LARGE VALVE COMPATIBILITY

No limitation in terms of valve compatibility. Connect any 12V or 24V valve and select the right power supply from your valve controller.

EASY INTEGRATION

Its compact and efficient design simplifies the direct management of up to twenty-five modules and four 24V 2-wire valves. Designed to work with any control system with a serial port, it offers unrivaled flexibility for extended system control and upscaling with ease.

Talk to an expert

The Advanced Valve Hub is a device that can control up to 16 valves. You can configure each group of 8 valves to either be supplied by 24V signals or by 12V signals. Valves connect to the Advanced Valve Hub with a two-wire connection. Both features optimize flexibility by increasing the number of compatible valves.

The Advanced Valve Hub has a compact form factor, a robust casing and fixation points that make it ideal for mechanical integration.

Its high speed serial connection is compatible with both any serial controllers and the Advanced Control Center for large and complex microfluidic systems.

Does Elveflow provide valves?

We provide a set of valves that can be directly connected to the Valve Hub. Either for low or high pressure and with different configurations (2/2 NC, 2/2 NO and 3/2), flexibility is the key. We also provide a manifold to split or merge up liquid and gas. Two types of manifolds are available: a 3 to 1 model for 3 valves and a 4 to 1 model for 4 valves, ideal to optimize space in your setup.

Installation of the Valve Hub in a more complete prototype is facilitated thanks to its own fixation points. The module can then be held in position and no preferred mounting orientation is necessary, ensuring a high degree of freedom.

To help integrate the entire Advanced range, the modules only have two form factors. Hence, the integration is neater as all the modules can be stacked up in an optimal way. The Assembly kit, provided as an option, can also smooth the mechanical integration as it includes brackets to help the assembly.

We provide you with support from our team experts throughout your project, either with documentation available for free on our website or through direct contact, not only with the Advanced range but with all our product range. We also offer a range of experimental training courses in microfluidic and microfabrication. For integration purposes, we offer introduction to UART communication protocols and SDK. We prefer to see our relationship as a collaboration where as a client you can benefit from our expertise.
