MV-2

Low-Pressure Microvalve

Three MV-2 valves mounted on a chip with channels for both fluid and air.

When to choose the MV-2

Portable microfluidic systems often don’t have access to the same high-pressure air sources used in lab environments. The MV-2 was designed to seal reliably with only 250 mbar of air pressure, allowing compatibility with quiet, low-power air sources ideal for portable and point-of-care products.
