Electrical Connections

For making electrical connections to microfluidic chips, Micronit offers a simple but effective solution: the Electrical Connection Kit. The kit can be used in combination with the Micronit chip holder and customized Micronit chips with integrated electrodes. The kit enables easy, plug-and-play connections to your microfluidic chip.

The Electrical Connection Kit contains five cables with a nut and probe (OD=0.76 mm) with receptable at one end, and a standard plug at the other end. The spring point in the probe has a diameter of 0.5 mm and a sharp angle of 70^o.
