Description
The OB1 MK4 Microfluidic Flow Controller is the go-to pneumatic control platform for pressure-driven flow. The OB1 can be configured to include up to four channels with five different pressure ranges. Connect sensors to the OB1 to transform the system into the ultimate microfluidic research flow controller with unparalleled accuracy and stability. The intuitive Elveflow Software Interface (ESI) makes monitoring and automating the OB1 system easy for any microfluidic experiment. The Elveflow equipments also integrate valves into modular microfluidic system to master various applications.

(1) Max pressure value might vary by +/- 2.5%
(2) Pressure stability (standard deviation) measured over the full pressure range with an external high accuracy pressure sensor (Druck DPI150)
(3) Time required to reach 5% of the setting point. Depends on the computer operating system
(4) Time required to reach 95% of the set point. Volume dependent – Measurement was done on 12 mL reservoir for a set point from 0 to 200 mbar
(5) A vacuum source is mandatory for calibration and use of dual channels even if the channels are to be used in pressure only.
