Solenoid valves are successfully flushed

Resistance to aggressive chemicals, zero-dead volume and full flushability are often the key requirements for valves specified within liquids handling systems.

Resistance to aggressive chemicals, zero-dead volume and full flushability are often the key requirements for valves specified within liquids handling systems used in laboratory, medical, analytical, biotechnology and OEM applications To meet these demands, miniature component specialist Lee Products offers its range of LFV chemically inert solenoid valves in a wide choice of configurations

These include a "starfish" manifold, which is available in a configuration of five, six, seven or eight valves.

These valves, which operate with a two-way normally closed operation, feature bidirectional flow and contoured internal passages, which facilitates complete flushing without damaging delicate samples.

The small internal volume reduces the amount of fluid needed to fill the system (transport volume) and so minimises sample and reagent requirements.

LFV series valves are also available in a flange mount version which means they can be grouped together very closely on 13mm centres.

The position of the flange, which is angled at 30 degrees to the ports, enables this close grouping and so minimises the overall size of manifolds.

Also, smaller, more compact manifolds mean reduced costs, because less material is needed for the manifold.

Other features and benefits include 30ms response time, operating pressures up to 2bar(g), 10 million cycles minimum and low power consumption.

The range includes 5, 12 and 24V models, available in manifold mount versions or with several porting options. Request a free brochure from Lee Products ...
