Micropump product &

application overview

Standard micropumps
mp-6 mp-6-pp
Micropumps are used for processing of fluids such as gases or liquids, just like
conventional pumps with the benefits of smaller size, minimal energy
consumption and utilization of novel actuation principles (microactuators)
www.servoflo.com
Functional Principles
The functional principle of piezo membrane
micropumps is easily explained.
A piezo ceramic is mounted on a brass
membrane and deforms that membrane when
a voltage is applied. With the resulting
downstroke the medium is squeezed out of
the pump chamber below. Check valves on
both sides of the chamber define the flow
direction.
When the voltage is decreased, the piezo's correspondent deformation causes an
upstroke of the membrane. The medium is sucked in and the chamber is filled.
The pump can operate at up to several hundred pumping cycles per second. The
pumping characteristics can be optimized by adjusting three parameters:
amplitude, frequency and wave form of the electric control signal.
