Cosmetics researchers and processors can now use a higher accuracy alternative to mechanical syringes, InterTech Development Company’s MicroPulse, a solid state means of producing small, short pulses of various gases.
The high accuracy compact (145 x 52 x 35 mm) MicroPulse contains a miniature heat exchanger and precision temperature control that can be fitted into process control circuits without adding volume. InterTech’s MicroPulse delivers gases up to 1.75 scc/m at STP. The required flow during the pulse period is automatically controlled via an 8-bit digital interface by a PLC or other external controller. The user can pre-set flow direction, volume-flow or mass-flow pulses over a wide pressure range.
