Details
Each OctaFlow III™system includes the following:
- Magnetic stand(s) with poles
- Valve manifold(s) with islotation or pinch valves and 5ml pressurized syringe reservoirs
- Flush valve(s)
- Quartz MicroManifold® perfusion outlet manifold(s) in various configurations (see below)
- 230µm ID and 600µm OD Teflon tubing (FEP-1) and compression fittings (CF-1) for 1/16″ ID tubing (other sizes available – see below)
- USB cable and software
Each OctaFlow III™ system features a choice of valves:
- Pinch valves : The 3-way normally open and normally closed pinch valves require minimal maintenance in long-term perfusion experiments and have response times of 15-20 ms.
- Isolation valves : The 2-way normally closed isolation valves are optimized for high-speed solution exchange. These valves are completely isolated when closed and have response times of 3 to 4 ms.

Additional options include:
- FEP-2: Clear Teflon tubing with 380µm ID and 760µm OD
- QMM-8: Quartz MicroManifold® 8 to 1 channel perfusion outlet manifold with 100µm or 200µm ID polyimide-coated quartz tubing and tip (other sizes available)
- QMM-16: Quartz MicroManifold® 16 to 1 channel perfusion outlet manifold with 100µm or 200µm ID polyimide-coated quartz tubing and tip (other sizes available)
All of the Quartz MicroManifold® perfusion outlet manifolds are also available with an additional channel with 200µm ID tube for flushing dead space and/or with Teflon tubing installed.
