New literature highlighting the 10- and 15-mm valve series for precision flow control products focuses on applications in the medical, analytical, liquid/gas delivery, laboratory and industrial automation markets. These small electronic valves utilize reliable plunger valve technology. The most common poppet technology in the valve marketplace, this proven design is ideal for less demanding applications.
Plunger-style solenoid valves can offer a great value, providing fast response times and relatively long life at a great price. These designs are commonly utilized in applications where mounting multiple valves on a manifold together reduce the number of fittings, overall package size and total cost. They feature 2-Way and 3-Way Normally-Open or Normally-Closed functions, multiple voltages, connection styles and sizes, and are CE- and RoHS-compliant.
Newcomers to medical device design may think pressure and flow rate are sufficient parameters whenselecting a pump. While this may be true in some industrial applications, medical...
Variable volume pumps, also known as precision dispense pumps, are a positive displacement pump that operates by retracting a piston to aspirate a fluid and then extending the...
Acheck valve, a non-return or one-way valve, is a mechanical device that allows a gas or liquid to flow freely in one direction while preventing reverse flow in the opposite ...
Engineers tasked with managing fluid flow talk about both holes and calibrated orifices, but they are two distinct entities. A hole can be any opening, but a calibrated orifice...
