Aspects of the present disclosure include an acoustic separator for acoustically separating components of a sample, such as a biological sample. Acoustic separators according to certain embodiments include an acoustic field generator soldered to a flow channel having a fluid flow path where the acoustic field generator produces an acoustic field in the fluid flow path. Methods of soldering an acoustic field generator to a flow channel having a fluid flow path are also described. Methods for acoustically separating components of a sample as well as systems and kits, including one or more acoustic separators, suitable for practicing the subject methods are also provided.
