Introduction In LifeSciences, In-Vitro Diagnostics, Medical Devices and Analytical Chemistry, the general trend is towards both the increased automation of procedures, accompanied with the miniaturization of the devices involved. This not only allows processes to be designed with considerably greater efficiency, it also opens up whole new fields of application. Bürkert with its particular product area MicroFluidics offers a product line tailored to the needs of this very specific market. Whether it is for valves, pumps or individual system solutions, the entire product range is geared...

Accuracy, Precision and Timing Reliability, Long Life Cycle and Efficiency These are the criteria for reliable dosing. But how is accuracy, precision and timing achieved? There are several But it’s not always about dosing for Bürkert. Many processes require fluid to be transported from a storage tank to its place of dosing principles in microfluidics, each with its own strengths and advantages. Knowing these strengths and the use. Our valves complete this task with flying colors. Whether it is aggressive or neutral media, high or low viscosity, the valves differences between each dosing...

Bürkert | Time-Pressure Dosing Time-Pressure Dosing Applications using Time-Pressure Dosing In time-pressure dosing the medium is stored in a pressurised tank and is carried through a valve to the dosing needle. Parameters such as tank pressure, flow resistance, product viscosity, and temperature of the medium are carefully controlled. The valve controls the flow of the medium by either opening or closing the stream of flow for a defined amount of time per Process Filling switching cycle. Since the medium is driven by air pressure instead of a pumping mechanism, Whether it’s the production...

Bürkert | Syringe Pump Dosing Products for Syringe Pump Dosing Type 6724 – Rocker WhisperValve Type 6724 is the larger version of the WhisperValve Type 6712 (9 mm width, 43 mm height, and 1,2 mm orifice). A membrane separates the fluid chamber from the actuator and allows the use of aggressive media. With the nearly silent switching, it is perfect for the laboratory and medical applications providing a quiet environment at the patient’s side. The low internal volume of 29 µl, excellent flushability and precision dosing guarantee reliable testing results. Type 0127 – Rocker valve The pioneer...
