Flow Cells with Y-Channel

A fused silica flow cell with three input ports connected via a straight channel to one output port. As with all of our standard fused silica flow cells, this model has microfluidic channels with optically clear (transparent) ceiling and floor.

These flow cells are available with or without connectors:

• Without connectors -- part number ends with –N
• With Luer connectors -- part number ends with –L
• With UpChurch Nanoport connectors -- part number ends with -U

** Please note that the bonding agent may extend beyond the connector footprint

Not sure what connectors you need? The following article “What type of connectors should I order?” may help you. 

Available in several channel widths and channel heights, thin or thick version

SPECIFICATIONS:
