MFS – Microfluidic flow sensors

Enjoy a Smooth & Pulseless Flow

The combination of the MFS flow sensor and the extreme pressure stability of Elveflow instruments ensure a superior flow control performance upon first-time use. You can plug our liquid flow sensors anywhere within your microfluidic setup, record the flow rate on your computer and adjust the flow using our pressure controllers.

Short Flow Detection Response Time

The exceptional qualities of these MFS flow sensors (40 ms response time, resolution down to 1,5 pL/s) allow you to conduct extremely subtle experiments requiring a high level of technical expertise.

Principle (OB1 + FS)

All our pressure controller systems (OB1, AF1) can be coupled with a flow sensor (FS). Using our feedback loop (PID), you can monitor and control flow rates in your microfluidic setup while keeping stability and responsiveness of pressure driven flows.

Performance

Elveflow® integrates the best microfluidic flow sensor technologies. Our flow sensors achieve resolution rates as low as 1.5 pL/s, accuracy levels down to 0.15% of the full scale and response times down to 40 ms.

• Resolution down to 1,5 pL/sec
• 5 ranges  from 1.5 µL/min to 5 mL/min
• Fully compatible with other Elveflow instruments
• Non-invasive measurements
• PEEK – High chemical compliance (1)
• Low dead volume down to 1 μL
• Bi-directional flow rate measurement (positive & negative)

(1) High chemical compliance

Inside the flow sensors, your sample will only be in contact with PEEK material to avoid any sample contamination.

Optional Monitoring & feedback control module

A device specifically designed to be used with a pressure sensor for pressure measurements inside your microchannels. The Sensor reader can be used to monitor pressure from any type of flow control instrument (syringe pump, peristaltic pump, perfusion, pressure controller).

Plug & Play flow control

Our liquid pressure sensors can be used with Sensor reader to monitor pressure in the Elveflow® software. Our Smart Interface enables you to control your setup after a few minutes of training.
