POWER MANAGEMENT
The PIPETMAN M battery has been
designed to ensure 900 pipetting cycles
(750 for PIPETMAN M Multi 200 µL and
300 µL) at maximum speed (up to nine
96-well plates) between two charge cycles.
For service continuity when needing more
capacity, your PIPETMAN M can also
be used while charging with the same
performance as a fully charged pipette.
Battery Charging
PIPETMAN M charges 80% of its full battery
capacity in less than an hour, and it takes three
hours to fully charge the battery.
Charge your pipette by using the power supply:
1.
Connect the AC adapter to a suitable
AC power supply.
2. Plug the adapter into the USB port
of the pipette.
The pipette starts charging.
Charge your pipette by using stand adapter (refer
to Chapter 2
Parts Checklist and Accessories
on
page 5):

Pipette Holder or Carrousel.

into the stand adapter.
