Applications > Medical Applications
Medical solenoid applications demand high accuracy in terms of force and stroke, and stringent standards that ensure reliability and long life. Typical examples include dialysis machines, dosing equipment and blood pressure monitoring devices.
Inside dialysis machines, two solenoids act in
tandem to control differing levels of blood flow during the dialysis process.
Plastic tubes carrying the blood are squeezed at a pre-determined rate to
precise clamping requirements. Here the force stroke diagram defined by the
application calls for the optimum use of magnetic flux technology.
Simple dosing machines are equivalent to the mechanical operation of a syringe. Despite the straightforward application, the rate of stroke and the force profile of a dosing solenoid are critical. This is to ensure that dosing can take place directly into the body.
Blood presure monitoring equipment may not require such exacting performance from a medical solenoid, but here the application calls for long life from a battery power source. This typifies the medical industry requirement for medical solenoids: highly accurate devices with guaranteed long life. All these solenoids can be stand alone or integrated into customer's own devices.
