For volatile solvents you should saturate the air-
cushion of your pipette by aspirating and dispensing
the solvent repeatedly before aspirating the sample.
When pipetting liquids with temperatures different
to the ambient temperature, pre-rinse the tip several
times before use.
You may remove the tip-ejector (
see Chapter 11 -
Maintenance
) to aspirate from very narrow tubes.
After pipetting acids or other corrosive liquids that
emit vapors, remove the tip-ejector, the tip-holder,
rinse, dry and lubricate the piston (
see Chapter 11
- Maintenance
). For the model P1000G, by using a
specific tip holder equipped with a filter, you can
increase the lifetime of the piston (
see Chapter 7 -
Accessories
).
Do not pipette liquids having temperatures above
70 °C or below 4 °C. The pipette can be used between
+ 4 °C and + 40 °C but the specifications may vary
according to the temperature (
refer to the ISO 8655-2
standard for conditions of use
).
