Controlled Flow Perfusion System, CFPS-2

This is a 2-channel perfusion system for precise linear control of solution flow rate over the range from 8 µl/min to 7.3 ml/min (or choose upgrades below for different flow rates). Precision design and miniature size minimize pulsations to provide smooth perfusion. Designed for stable solution flow or substance application during imaging, recording, calcium and other ions measurement, biochemical assays or small organs and animals perfusion. Used with small chambers in lab-on-chip setups, imaging and recording workstations, and to perfuse small organs and animals in micro-perfusion setups.

Ten-turn dials and analog inputs allow you to calibrate each channel independently and to apply one or multiple substances by switching channels manually or through data acquisition and imaging software. You can accurately mix different solutions or generate dose-response curves using only two solutions: control and concentrated test compound. You can even generate concentration gradients in time to simulate substance distribution in time, and concentration gradients throughout the space of small chambers to assess chemotaxis (an optional mixing chamber is required for concentration gradient in space).

Each channel can be controlled manually, by analog signal, TTL or through RS232 connection for fully automated setups controlled through third party software packages, imaging for example (optional USB adapters are also available). Up to 10 systems can be connected in a chain through RS232 ports.

The system can be upgraded to operate up to 8 channels in parallel: each additional channel is controlled by analog signal, and also have a preset flow rate to turn ON/OFF by TTL or through RS232. Can be connected to solution switching miniature systems for changing and mixing more than 2 solutions in sequence. The optional luer-lock manifolds will combine multiple solutions into a single output. Includes a power supply (can be also powered by batteries through an optional battery connection cable). The size of the 2-channel system is 4x2.5x1.85 in (separate from the controller). Multiple systems cad be attached to each other to form a multi-channel system. Includes 1 ft. mounting rod and X-block to attach a standard 0.5in. posts. Comes with a set of tubing for different flow ranges: 0.015" I.D. - 8-170 µl/min; 0.020" I.D. - 20-340 µl/min; 0.031" I.D. - 50-920 µl/min; 0.062" I.D. - 170-3400 µl/min; 0.093" I.D. -370-7300 µl/min; dual 0.015" I.D. x2 8-170 µl/min (for different ranges select upgrades below).
