Picospritzer III

Microinjector

General Valve

 

The Picospritzer III is a self-contained rack mountable system which supplies repeatable pressure pulses. It was designed for rapid and reproducible ejections of picoliter to nanoliter volumes as used in intracellular or extracellular studies.  Volumes dispensed are linear with time and pressure.  A pulse duration can be recorded with a special time marker whose polarity and amplitude can be adjusted.

Features 

  Ejection of picoliter to nanoliter volumes 
  
Pressure range:     0 - 100 PSI, smaller ranges available 
   Pulse duration:       2 - 999 msec (1 msec intervals)
                                        0.1  - 99.9 sec 
                                        0.1 - 99.9 min  
   Pulse initiation : external stimulator, front panel or
     remote  pushbutton (or foot pedal)
   Up to four injecting channels
  Time mark: provides a useful index of the pulse
    duration (with selectable amplitude and polarity) or
    a synchro-out signal
  Vacuum loading (optional) : for multichannel
    models one channel can yield vacuum pulses
    which can be used for pipette loading.  
  size: standard 19“ rack                                         


Ordering information
 

The Picospritzer is available in 1 or  2  channels versions.

The system comes complete with high speed valve(s) and the necessary tuning (less pipette and holder).

Standard pipette holders are available for pipettes with diameters of 1.0 mm to 2.0 mm in 0.2mm increments  (order separately).
