Manifolds & Stopcocks
Clinical Application
Manifolds and stopcocks are used to control fluid flow, contrast delivery, and pressure monitoring during interventional and diagnostic procedures.
They are commonly used in interventional cardiology, peripheral vascular procedures, and catheter-based interventions where multiple fluid pathways must be managed simultaneously.
These devices support:
- Controlled routing of fluids and contrast media
- Pressure monitoring and transduction
- Safe isolation of flow paths
- Efficient management of multi-line connections
Design and Performance
ALSPL manifolds and stopcocks are designed for precise flow control and connection stability during complex procedures.
Key characteristics include:
- Defined internal channel geometry for predictable flow
- Smooth rotational control for accurate valve positioning
- Leak-resistant seals to maintain pressure integrity
- Transparent housing for visual confirmation of flow direction
- Secure luer interfaces for stable system connection
Sheath and dilator components are engineered to function together during insertion and device exchange.
Construction Options
Manifolds and stopcocks may be configured as:
- Two-port, three-port, or four-port manifolds
- High-pressure stopcocks
- Fixed or rotating luer lock interfaces
- Integrated extension line variants
- Defined pressure-rated platforms
Configuration is selected based on procedural pressure requirements and workflow design.
Standard Configurations
Standard manifold and stopcock platforms are available across commonly used port configurations and pressure ratings.
Detailed specifications and configuration references are provided in the product brochure.
Customisation
Custom manifold and stopcock programs may include:
- Alternative port counts
- Modified connector orientations
- Custom pressure-rated assemblies
- Procedure-specific integrated manifold systems
- OEM and private label manufacturing
Custom designs are developed to maintain reliable flow control and connection integrity.
