Details

One software for all instruments

The ESI can control up to 16 Instruments (OB1 pressure controllerflow rate and pressure sensorssets of valves and valves controller) via the same interface.

Thanks to the TTL triggers, you can synchronize your Elveflow® system with any other instrument in your laboratory (from microscopes to any electrical instrument, and more).

ESI controls

Intuitive interface

The intuitive interface of the ESI microfluidic software facilitates navigation from one instrument to another. Start from simple setups and add instruments (valves, sensors, etc) through the same interface. Even the most complicated setups can be controlled in just a few clicks!

A Play/Pause button allows changing pressure and flow channels, maintaining the current state of the controller while simultaneously adapting the system to the new settings.

Workflow automation

  Sequencer SDK ESI

Built-in scheduler

The scheduler is a user-friendly tool that automates complex steps of your experiments and protocols.

Gain precious experimental time by:

  • creating or editing instrument configurations (pressure or flow rate profiles, valves positions, etc)
  • “dragging and dropping” each step to sequentially arrange them
  • controlling steps timing
  • building a complex sequence with loops (for) and conditions (if)
  • integrating your setup to a wider experimental environment using trigger signals (IN and/or OUT)
  • saving important data
  • using the play/pause button to create a file and record the progress of your experiment
  • saving and loading entire experiments.

Advanced Software Development Kit (SDK) control

Our package allows developers to integrate Elveflow systems into their own control programs. Those libraries enable fast & easy integration of our instruments to your lab project.

We provide the following libraries free of charge (with documentation and example codes):

C++ library, Python library,  MATLAB library,  LabVIEW library

Discover the ESI in video

Thanks to this video, you will learn how to use pressure-driven flow control with the Elveflow Software!

By coupling our pressure controller with one of our flow sensors, you can perform ultra precise and responsive pressure-driven flow control.

You can request a flow rate value in the Elveflow Software and the pressure controller will automatically adjust pressure to reach the requested value thanks to a customizable PID Feedback loop.

FAQ

Do I have to pay an extra charge to obtain the ESI?

Absolutely not, the ESI is free of charge with unlimited access. The software comes on a USB key with any instrument and can be download on this website.

Can I have access to the ESI's latest version?

New versions are released on a regular basis, they propose new and improved features. Good news, they are free of charge and can be downloaded directly from this page. You can also ask our support team (customer@elveflow.com) for it.

Can I use the ESI in Mac or Linux environment?

Unfortunately no, the ESI is only compatible with Windows.

Is it compulsory to use the ESI to control Elveflow instruments and sensors?

Absolutely not, free SDK libraries and documented code examples (in C++, Labview, Matlab and Python) are also available to control Elveflow instruments and sensors from your own code or software.
