Abstract
An active fluid component (40) for connection with a substrate (10) has an interface which can be connected with the substrate (10) in a fluid-tight manner, and a magnet (42) arranged in the region of the interface.
Claims20
An active fluid component for connection with a substrate, the active fluid component comprising:
- an interface configured to be connected with the substrate in a fluid-tight manner;
- a ring magnet arranged in a region of the interface;
- and
- a switching or control valve having an actuator arranged in an interior of the ring magnet,
- wherein the interface comprises a seal configured to cover the actuator and extend between a ring surface of the ring magnet and a surface of the substrate.
