Keep core and shell solutions separate.

The head has two solution channels. The upper and lower liquid inlets are located on the side, feeding the inner and outer flow paths of the coaxial outlets.

Adjust the head to the collection setup.

The insulating holder allows position, reach and angle adjustment. The black adjustment screws set the spinning angle. A high-voltage connection is provided on the head.

Needles & cleaning

Lower plate and sealing assembly

A head that opens for cleaning.

The internal assembly can be disassembled to access and clean individual parts. A die-cut gasket seals the head, while the small internal cavity reduces the amount of solution retained inside.

Concentric inner and outer needlesEnlarge image ↗
Concentric inner and outer needles

Coaxial tips with adjustable offset.

The elongated needles concentrate the electric field at their tips. The inner-to-outer needle-tip offset can be adjusted by up to 1.0 mm. Standard Luer lock connections and concentric needle alignment support assembly and use.
