Pioneering products that will shape the future of injectable drug delivery.
The following series of video footage illustrates the comprehensive functionality afforded by the Capa Valve in medical syringe applications. Each embodiment uses a standard syringe with a Capa Valve installed to provide the desired functionality.
The Capa Valve can be sized to fit any size syringe (1ml to 150ml), the fully functional prototypes shown below use the more common size syringes (1ml, 3ml and 5ml) which comply to the BS EN ISO 11608-1:2012 standard for medical syringes.
Patient Wellbeing
Minimising discomfort & risk to the individuals being injected.
Storage
Reduced storage costs as less space is required to house the equipment.
Environment
More environmentally friendly as there is less medical waste produced in the process.
Logistics
Reduced transportation costs as there is less packaging and lighter, smaller shipments to be made.
Capa Valve Pre-Filled Dual-Chamber
Drug Delivery Platform Technology.
Pre-filled Dual Chamber Sequential Delivery
Capa Valve has recently licensed its sequential technology variant PFS-LL-SD for human health applications, while retaining the ability to offer its liquid-liquid dual-chamber sequential delivery systems for use in animal health.
Please contact us for if you have interest in this technology for human health applications and we will refer you to the licensee.

PFS-LL-SD (Auto-Injector)
Versatility beyond dual-chamber by-pass syringes
The installation of the valve at any position down the syringe barrel during the fill-finish process will define the ratio of the two chambers created for the PFS-LL-SD.
Additionally, installing a second valve into a syringe barrel a tri-chamber syringe can be created. This arrangement has also been successfully tested in a cartridge for an injector pen.

Dual Chamber Syringe with Pre-Filled Flush
A similar valve as used in the Sequential Liquid Delivery device sized for a 10ml syringe is configured to provide a pre-filled flushing syringe with the ability to draw up any liquid drug into the front chamber. This novel device can be used in place of two separate syringes to reduce waste and increase efficiency.

Pre-filled Dual Chamber Pre-Mixing & Delivery
These valve variants enable the pre-mixing of the contents (2 liquids or a liquid diluent and a solid) of two pre-filled chambers before final injection. The two main valve variants are illustrated in the videos below.

Capa Valve New By-Pass Valve
Capa Valve has recently developed and patented an innovative new valve variant that expands its technology portfolio, enabling every functional configuration required for dual-chamber syringe applications.
This latest design features a pressure-activated opening mechanism, with the activation threshold precisely tuneable to meet the requirements of specific clinical applications. It provides a direct, cost-effective replacement for conventional dual-chamber by-pass syringes.
Like all Capa Valve technologies, the new valve can be seamlessly integrated into existing medical syringe designs, allowing primary container manufacturers to convert standard syringes into low-cost dual-chamber systems without the complexity or expense of redesigning the syringe itself.
