A cassette integrated system. The cassette integrated system includes a mixing cassette, a balancing cassette, a middle cassette fluidly connected to the mixing cassette and the balancing cassette and at least one pod. The mixing cassette is fluidly connected to the middle cassette by at least one fluid line and the middle cassette is fluidly connected to the balancing cassette by at least one fluid line. The at least one pod is connected to at least two of the cassettes wherein the pod is located in an area between the cassettes.

A fluid check valve incorporating a temporary elastomeric functional barrier membrane, the check valve having a sealing member comprising a first elastomer and a barrier membrane comprising a second elastomer, different from the first elastomer, disposed directly upon the surface of the sealing member so as to form a continuous layer over at least a seal opening of the sealing member. The barrier membrane may include a photoinitiator and coagent which aids in the ultraviolet (UV) curing of the second elastomer after application upon the first. The barrier membrane may applied as a solution of monomers, photoinitiator, and optional coagent, the solvent evaporated, and the deposited solutes exposed to ultraviolet so as to form the barrier membrane material.

Fluid apparatus and related methods are disclosed. An example fluid apparatus includes a housing defining a fluid flow passageway between an inlet and an outlet. The housing has a first valve seat and a second valve seat positioned in the fluid flow passageway. The first valve seat is spaced from the second valve seat. A flow control member is positioned in the fluid flow passageway. The flow control member has a first disk and a second disk. The first disk is to engage the first valve seat and the second disk to engage the second valve seat.

Fluid apparatus and related methods are disclosed. An example fluid apparatus includes a valve body defining a fluid flow passageway and a plurality of valve seats. A flow control member is positioned in the fluid flow passageway of the valve body. The flow control member having a plurality of disks. A respective one of the disks moves relative to a respective one of the valve seats to control fluid flow through the valve body. The flow control member is adjustable relative to a longitudinal axis of the valve body to provide a preload to the disks. Each of the disks has a cracking pressure corresponding to the preload.

A cassette integrated system. The cassette integrated system includes a mixing cassette, a balancing cassette, a middle cassette fluidly connected to the mixing cassette and the balancing cassette and at least one pod. The mixing cassette is fluidly connected to the middle cassette by at least one fluid line and the middle cassette is fluidly connected to the balancing cassette by at least one fluid line. The at least one pod is connected to at least two of the cassettes wherein the pod is located in an area between the cassettes.

A flow limiting device with a back flow prevention mechanism includes a body that has an isolation board and a water-through cavity. The isolation board has a water-through hole connecting to the water-through cavity and a flow limiting device having a flow limiting component and stop ribs which limit the position change of the flow limiting component. The stop ribs are arranged on the inner wall of the water-through cavity at equal intervals. The flow limiting component is set in the water-through cavity. The outer side of the flow limiting component is contacted on the stop ribs. A back flow prevention mechanism comprises, a back flow prevention component which is fixed in the water-through hole and a supporting structure which is set for supporting the back flow prevention component when it expands on the inner wall of the water-through cavity.

A cassette integrated system. The cassette integrated system includes a mixing cassette, a balancing cassette, a middle cassette fluidly connected to the mixing cassette and the balancing cassette and at least one pod. The mixing cassette is fluidly connected to the middle cassette by at least one fluid line and the middle cassette is fluidly connected to the balancing cassette by at least one fluid line. The at least one pod is connected to at least two of the cassettes wherein the pod is located in an area between the cassettes.

A regulating apparatus for a pressure activated one-way valve. The one-way valve is for mounting on a container to permit the release of gas from within the container and to control the ingress of atmospheric air. The regulating apparatus comprises a sealed and expandable chamber containing a gas. The chamber is operatively associated with the one-way valve such that when the chamber is exposed to elevated temperatures and/or reduced external pressure the gas within the chamber expands and exerts a force upon the one-way valve or portions thereof. The force tends to maintain the one-way valve in a closed or semi-closed configuration.

A non-return valve, in particular for medical purposes, including a first hose connection housing, a second hose connection housing and a membrane disk which is made from flexible material. The membrane disk is arranged between the two hose connection housings and can be raised up from an annular valve seat in communication with an inlet space which is connected to an inlet passage. A medium-permeable formation which faces the membrane disk is arranged on the inlet side into the inlet space, supporting the membrane disk against overextension in the case of high return pressures.

A microfabricated fluidic unidirectional valve includes a microfabricated elastomer material having a flow through channel. The microfabricated fluidic unidirectional valve also includes an elastomer flap attached to the elastomer material in the flow through channel. The elastomer flap forms a seal in the flow through channel to prevent fluid from flowing in a first direction through the flow through channel and to allow fluid flow in a second direction through the flow through channel.
