Microfluidic Pressure & Vacuum Pump AF1 Dual

An autonomous pump with the advantage of the most recent piezoelectric technology for microfluidics

The embedded micro-compressor makes unnecessary the typical air compressor or air line scheme. Only one thing is required to install your setup – an electrical plug!

The Dual AF1 has a pressure range from -700 mbar to 1bar. It can be used both as a vacuum source or a pressure source and enables you to switch from vacuum to pressure on the same channel.

Wide range of applications

• Digital microfluidics: micro-droplets, anisotropic particles, double emulsion generation & handling
• Bead and particle manipulation
• Fast liquid sample switching
• Cell culture experiments

Performance

The piezoelectric technologies used in the AF1 provides the world’s most accurate flow control for your microfluidic experiment.

• Pressure stability: 0.05 %
• Sensor resolution: 0.006 %
• Settling time: 40 ms
• Response time: 50 ms
