What are microvalves?
Microvalves are small valves designed to control the flow of fluids or gases in very limited spaces, allowing precise regulation even in low flow applications.
What is the function of microvalves?
They are used to regulate, open or close the passage of air or fluids in systems where space is limited or high precision in flow control is required.
Where are microvalves used?
Microvalves are used in:
- Compact pneumatic systems
- Medical and laboratory equipment
- Industrial automation
- Electronic and precision devices
What is the difference between a microvalve and a conventional valve?
The main difference is their compact size and precision. Microvalves are designed to work with small volumes and in confined spaces, while standard valves are designed for higher flow rates and larger dimensions.
What flow rate do the microvalves control?
They are designed for small or controlled flow rates, making them ideal for precise dosing and applications where large volumes are not required.
Do they require any type of maintenance?
Yes, although they are usually highly reliable components, it is recommended to keep the system clean and periodically check its operation to avoid failures.
Can they be used in high-precision applications?
Yes, in fact they are specially designed for applications where precise control of small amounts of fluid is required, such as in dosing or microfluidics.
