5. MPA / MPB FUNCTION
□
The pipette has three modes where advantages of electromotion are utilized.
(Refer to “9. FUNCTION AND HOW TO USE”)
- Standard mode (AUTO)
This is for basic pipette operation. In this mode, the pipette aspirates once and
then dispenses once.
- Multiple dispensing mode (MD)
This is for dispensing liquid on a microplate, etc. In this mode, the pipette aspirates
once and dispenses several times.
- Mixing mode (MIX)
This is a useful operation when uniformly mixing liquids of different types. In this
mode, the pipette repeats a cycle of aspirating and dispensing.
□
User setting allows storage within the pipette of up to nine programs containing
operating mode and dispensed volume. By reading them out when necessary,
operation for setting again can be omitted. Settings from the prior use are stored in
memory even with the power turned off.
□
The pipette is equipped with the reverse operation suitable for dispensing a liquid
that has a tendency to remain in the tip. (Refer to “9-6 Reverse operation
(Dispensing liquid that tends to remain in the tip)”)
□
The pipette also has
“
Dispensing correction function
”
(Patent applied for) with
multiple dispensing to cancel errors due to backlash. It enables the dispensing of
liquids precisely without difference due to operators.
(Refer to “9-9 “Pre-dispensing function “ for multiple dispensing”)
□
Various kinds of tips can be used. (The height of the tip ejector can be adjusted)
(Refer to “12. ADJUSTING HEIGHT OF THE TIP EJECTOR”)
□
Calibration (adjustment) of dispensed volumes is easy. (User CAL function). Even
differences in dispensed amounts due to tip differences can be corrected. (Refer to
“11-1 Volume calibration function (
μ
L calibration function)”) (Patent applied for)
□
Dispensing by weight is also available. Refer to “11-3 Dispensing in a unit of
weight (in mg unit)”) (Patent applied for)
