Microfluidic Leakage Testing Pack

Why Using Flow Control for Leak Test?

To ensure the safety and efficacy of microfluidic systems, rigorous quality testing is usually necessary. When developing a microfluidic device, particular attention should be paid to microleakages that can compromise its performance.

Our advanced technology ensures highly accurate measurements of leakage rates at very low flow rates (down to nL/min), allowing researchers and manufacturers to detect even the smallest leaks reliably. This level of precision is a great advantage for maintaining the integrity of microfluidic devices and for optimizing their performance and durability.

The Leakage Testing Pack is versatile, providing valuable insights for both components characterization and quality control. Indeed, it enables a complete assessment of component or system characteristics, essential for generating its datasheet. In our application note, we characterized a custom-made PDMS chip through a pressure burst test. It allowed to measure the initial nano-leakage and determining the maximum pressure before chip delamination. For quality control, the pack is ideal for use on industrial testing benches post-production, ensuring that performance and reliability are met.
