3 Product description The Mitos Sensor Display provides a flexible system for measuring and displaying microscale flow rate. The Mitos Sensor Display interfaces with flow rate sensors and provides a USB (to PC) and visual output. Each Mitos Sensor Display can be used interchangeably with the Mitos Flow Rate Sensors (Part Nos ), the sensors simply attach with a push-click action. There are 6 different sensors which can interface with the Mitos Sensor Display, 5 Flow Rate Sensors covering different ranges. Mitos Sensor Display (Part No ) with Mitos Flow Rate Sensor (Part No ) attached The Mitos Flow Rate Sensors enable fast and accurate measurements of ultra low liquid flow rates. The high precision thermal sensor technology provides total media isolation and very low internal volume with no moving parts. All measurement data is fully calibrated and temperature compensated by means of an internal microcontroller. Excellent chemical resistance and bio-compatibility are also ensured. The Mitos Flow Rate Sensors are compatible with the Mitos P-Pump (Part No ). The Mitos P-Pump communicates directly with the flow sensors and can log the flow rate data. See Using the Mitos Sensor Units with the Mitos P-Pump range section. Dolomite s Mitos Flow Rate Sensors are available in a mixed pack of 3 (Part No ). Please select the Flow Rate Sensors you require and specify your selection when placing the order. Please contact us for more information. MAR V.A.2 Page 3 of 8

5 Mitos Sensor Interface The Mitos Sensor Interface (Part No ) provides a cost-effective alternative to the Mitos Sensor Display featuring a circular multi-pin interface cable for connection to the Mitos P-Pump range allowing flow rate data to be read by the Mitos P-Pump software. It can be used with any Mitos Flow Rate Sensor (Part Nos ) which simply attach with a push-click action. All the other features of the Mitos Sensor Interface are the same as for the Mitos Sensor Display (Part No ) to provide users with a flexible system for measuring and micro-scale flow rate.

6 Using the Mitos Sensor Units with the Mitos P-Pump range Compatible P-Pump and Sensor Unit Options Mitos Flow Rate Sensors can be connected (via the correct interface type) to the Mitos P- Pump for monitoring or controlling flow rate. The Mitos Sensor Display and Mitos Sensor Interface are compatible with the Mitos P-Pump range as shown in the table below.

7 Connecting the Sensor Unit to the Mitos P-Pump The Mitos Flow Rate Sensor simply attaches to the Mitos Sensor Display with a push-click action. Once connected to a Mitos Flow Rate Sensor, the display can be used as a standalone device (picture left) or sit on top of the Mitos P-Pump (picture top left). Mitos Sensor Unit connected to the Mitos P-Pump as a standalone device Mitos Sensor Unit attached to the Mitos P-Pump The supplied USB lead can be used to link the Mitos Sensor Display to the Mitos P-Pump. Similarly, the attached circular multi-pin interface cable can be used to link the Mitos Sensor Interface to the Mitos P-Pump. This enables the flow control and flow rate monitoring functionality. Closed-loop Flow Control Closed-loop flow control is an enhancement to the Mitos P-Pump system for improved control of flow rates from 70 nl/min to 5 ml/min. It requires that a Mitos Flow Rate Sensor (Part No ) is connected in-line between the pump and the microfluidic device. Once the pump detects that a flow rate sensor is connected, the flow control menu options are enabled. A target flow rate can then be set on the P-Pump and the pump pressure is automatically adjusted to meet the target flow rate. The key benefits of closed-loop flow control are: Control flow rates instead of pressure making experiments easier to set-up and optimise. Improved flow rate precision: even better control over introduction of micro-scale reagent volumes. Ideal for droplet generation: higher long-term droplet monodispersity in flow control mode compared with pressure control mode. MAR V.A.2 Page 7 of 8
