Subminiature Valve･Pump Leading Manufacturer From Japan

  Takasago Electric,Inc. is a specialist manufacturer of miniature chemically inert valves and pumps. Its head office is located in Japan, having more than 60 years company history.

​

  We have contributed to the development of its main adopted field of analyzers from the perspective of fluid mechanics by offering an expertise accumulated over many years and solution-oriented product proposals.

The Reasons Why Takasago is Selected

Various Applications of Our Products Include

Examples of Solutions Offered by Takasago

  Takasago is one of the leading manufacturers of fluid control regions, which responds flexibly to the varied product requests of our customers, like the different designs in the appearance or performance, flow construction or installation, application condition or cost,single product or combination module etc. We can provide specialized, individualized and diversified customized products and solutions.

Slim Micro-Pump for Detection of Air Pollutant Analysis Instruments

• Client’s Field and The Device Features

  A Portable μTAS (micro Total Analysis Systems), which is an analytical instrument that uses micro-channels to detect the concentration of the atmospheric pollutant gasses SO2 and H2S.

• Request From Client

  The client's wished to downsize an application that pours 10～20μL/min of diluted sulphuric acid and fluorescein mercury acetate (FMA) into a micro-channel, such that it becomes portable.

• Solutions by Takasago

  In response, we proposed a small, lightweight and highly inert shape memory alloy driven valve as a miniature pump and achieved the customer’s requirements.

Examples of Solutions Offered by Takasago

The Fluid Control Module Used on The New Type 5-Part-Diff Auto Hematology Analyzer

  With the miniaturization of the 5-Part-Diff Auto Hematology Analyzer, the customer's task is how to integrate the syringe pump, solenoid valve, and reagent vessel in a small space.  

  Based multi-connect substrate as a core, and make it closely connected to syringe pumps, thin type piezoelectric pumps, solenoid valves, and reagent vessels,this greatly reduces the internal volume of the measuring section, also improves the accuracy of the test, and reduces the consumption of specimens and reagents.

​

  This achieves the overall minimization of the module.Compared to the conventional tubing design, we reduced the entire unit size to about 2/3.

The High Temperature and High Pressure Solenoid Valve Used on Water Analyzer

  When the highly corrosive fluid (sulfuric acid, potassium chromate, etc.) and the sample water are heated at a high temperature, there is a problem that the reaction liquid has a counterflow because of the high pressure in the reaction vessel.  

  In response to this problem, we Takasago have developed a "high-temperature and high-pressure solenoid valve" with a fluid-resistant temperature of 175 °C, a pressure resistance of 1500 kPa, and high corrosion resistance, which solves the counterflow problem caused by the high-temperature heating reaction.
