Xover® 2- & 3-Way Isolation Solenoid Valve

This internal pinch-tube valve was designed to minimize reagent consumption, improve throughput, and maintain the vitality of cells. Xover configurations boast low internal volumes and a smooth, low shear, easily flushable fluid path on all models. The 3-way features a Y-shaped elastomer tube, which offers ultra-low carryover volume when switching between fluids. The valve is also offered in a 2-way Normally Closed or a 2-way Normally Open configuration and in a higher flow rate model (1000 Lohm) or lower internal volume model (3800 Lohm). Unlike traditional external pinch valves, Xover is durable across a long life and switches consistently in less than 40 ms. It is ideal for applications in flow cytometry, gene sequencing, and analytical chemistry. Each valve is customizable and 100% tested to guarantee performance

1Typical cycle life on water; actual cycle life will vary depending on application conditions.
2Valves can pass soft, spherical media, such as cells, within the listed passage size limitations. To protect against hard particulate contamination, filtration of 50 microns or finer is recommended for 1000 Lohm models, or 35 micron or finer for 3800 Lohm models.
3Typical response time based on water flow at 10 psid. Actual response times are dependent upon system conditions and may vary. The response is measured by the presence of flow; armature movement occurs faster than flow. Extended periods of inactivity may impact the valve's initial response time.
4Xover is designed to operate under continuous duty at the rated voltage ± 5%.
