Save valuable lab time with a fully automatic valve drive
The AZURA® VU 4.1 Valve Unifier is a smart valve drive/actuator with RFID technology (Radio-frequency identification). It features automatic valve recognition and adjusts torque and switching speed specifically for each valve. Therefore, only one valve drive is needed regardless of the valve from analytical to preparative scale.
Each valve head is equipped with an RFID tag that stores all relevant data. This data is read wirelessly by the VU 4.1 valve drive and the switching parameters are automatically adjusted.
For example, a 1/8 inch valve with 2 mm bores requires a higher torque than a 1/16 inch valve with 0.3 mm bores due to the size.
The valve drive works as stand-alone device thanks to an integrated display but can also be controlled via our supported software. Due to various interfaces and the small footprint the valve drive AZURA VU 4.1 can easily be used to upgrade an existing system.
