Valves and Fittings
• Pinch
Valves for Reduced Maintenance
Easiest valves to clean and switch tubing. Liquids never
touch the valves. Switches in 30-50 ms. 1/32” i.d. silicone tube passes
through, and is pinched closed by solenoid activation. All AutoMate Scientific
valves include an individual indicator LED. Our new aluminum enclosure keeps
the valves dry from spills and offers luer lock ports for syringe reservoirs.
• Teflon™ Valves for Fast
Switching
Required for fast kinetics applications.
Excellent chemical and corrosion resistance. Non-stick surface
resists particles and chemical deposits. Switches in less
than 10 ms, with 20 μl of dead volume from port to port.
Threaded female inlet and outlet ports accept Hose Barb,
Luer Lock and Nut & Ferrule fittings (see diagrams next
page).
• Lee™ Mini Valves
for Extremely Fast Switching and Minimal Pressure Pulse
For the most demanding applications AutoMate Scientific offers tiny valves
from the Lee Company. Enclosed in our new aluminum box with luer locks
for syringe reservoirs, these valves can open and close in 1.5-4 ms with
a ValveLink8.2 controller.
• Fittings
for your Teflon Valves
Hose Barbs are standard and available for 1/8” & 1/16” i.d.
soft tubing. Luer Lock fittings attach directly to syringe reservoirs
for minimal dead volume. Nut & Ferrule fittings are ideal
for drug discovery applications that require hard Teflon tubing.

Luer-lock fittings in TeflonTM valves allow direct connection
of syringe reservoirs for minimal dead volume.

Teflon™ Valve Fitting
Choices:

• Standard
• Available
for 1/8" and 1/16" i.d. soft tubing.

• For
direct attachment of syringes.
• Eliminates
extra tubing between reservoirs and valves.
• Includes
2-way stopcocks and 35ml syringes.

• HPLC-like,
screw-in fittings for rigid, small-diameter (1/16" o.d.)
tubing.
