The Sensor Integration Chip - Turning Valve Sensor Platform I Fluidic 673 is a microfluidic device enabling flexible sensor integration for liquid sample handling. It features a main volume defined by a cavity with maximum sensor mounting size of 11.5 mm x 10.5 mm, supports volume selection with six switchable inlet channels, and offers seven total channels (six inlets, one outlet) for advanced fluid routing.
General
The turning valve sensor platform belongs to our sensor integration chip family. These platforms allow mounting a sensor with maximum dimensions of 11.5 mm x 10.5 mm in a prepared cavity with six switchable inlets and one outlet. The channels have dimensions of 400 µm width and 150 µm depth. The valve can be operated with the manual turning valve actuator or the ChipGenie TV instrument. The sensor can be mounted via a double-sided adhesive tape gasket, which is 140 µm thick. Fluidic 673 can be combined with a double-sided adhesive tape in the shape of a rhombic chamber (Fluidic 1053) or straight channel (Fluidic 1052). The double-sided adhesive tape is not included with this product and needs to be ordered separately. Please note: When working with samples that tend to form bubbles, it is recommended to use the platform Fluidic 1156, which includes a bubble trapping chamber before the sensor integration area.

Features & Benefits
- Flexible Sensor Mounting: Supports sensors up to 11.5 x 10.5 mm. Adaptation to various measurement tasks.
- Multiple Inlet Switching: Six individually addressable inlets for versatile liquid handling.
- Manual or Instrument Control: Valve can be operated by hand or automated instrument for reliable performance.
- Clear Fluid Pathways: Transparent material and precise micro-channels for easy monitoring.
- Easy Sensor Sealing: Sensor mounts with a simple double-sided adhesive tape gasket (not included).
- Compatibility with Different Adhesive Formats: Supports rhombic or straight channels for experimental flexibility.
This sensor integration chip platform enables rapid prototyping and analytical development for microfluidic applications. It supports the installation of diverse sensors in a well-defined, accessible cavity, ensuring proper flow routing with six inlets and one outlet. The chip can be interfaced using a Mini Luer interface and offers transparent body material for visual access during experiments. The device is suited for combination with different adhesive chamber formats and can be operated either manually or using dedicated instruments for streamlined lab work. For samples that may form air bubbles, an alternative variant with an integrated bubble trap is recommended.
Applications
This product is ideal for flexible integration and testing of sensors in a range of microfluidic workflows and liquid-handling scenarios.
- Laboratory prototyping of sensor-based assays
- Biosensor and chemical sensor evaluation
- Custom liquid routing in analytical workflows
