Microsol MS-E, Designed for Critical Applications Norgren furthers its valve product offering with the addition of the new FAS 15mm Microsol MS-E 3-way valve, designed for both aggressive and sensitive medias. Developed to deliver optimum performance and all-round efficiency, it offers a host of functional and practical features within its latest media separated valve. »» Internal volume (42µL) »» Less heat transfer: only 0.4 W power consumption »» Fast flushing: 100% volume flushed in 0.11ms. No carry over. Its small size and low power consumption means that it can be easily integrated with many miniature and transportable instruments.
Typical Applications Medical Devices Therapeutic devices to remove substances (water, solutes toxin) from body fluid. Microsol MS-E can be used to control liquids like saline solutions. »» Hemodialysis
Diagnostic Instrumentation Instrumentation used in laboratory tests to demonstrate the presence of physiologically significant substances in blood, urine, tissue, or body fluids. Microsol MS-E can be used to precisely control the flow of samples, buffer, reagents in combination with Norgren pumps.
