ABSTRACT:
A modular manifold comprises a front cap, an end cap, and at least two adjoining port modules being securely sandwiched between the front and end caps. Each of the adjoining port modules comprises an internal channel adapted for fluid flow, and a side port in communication with the internal channel. The internal channels of the adjoining port modules define a common manifold channel. The side ports are aligned substantially in a linear fashion and adapted to provide access to the common manifold channel. The common manifold channel is accessed at one end via the front cap and sealed at another end via the end cap.
