Box for Microtitre Plates
Overview
The box for microtitre plates is used for low-vapour cultivation of mi-
crotitre plates and deep well plates. It protects cultures from drafts in
the incubation chamber and also offers a stable container in which
cultures can be transported.
The box for microtitre plates consists of an aluminium container with
a removable lid into which a replaceable paper filter is integrated. A
microtitre insert with screw-mounted pins is used for mounting mi-
crotitre plates and deep well plates.
For shaking, the box for microtitre plates can be screwed onto a uni-
versal table tray or placed on the Sticky Stuff adhesive matting.

Mounting the box for microtitre plates
The box for microtitre plates is mounted on the table by means of
four Phillips-head screws. When delivered, the fastening screws are
covered with plastic cap nuts. These must be removed prior to instal-
lation.
Alternatively, the box for microtitre plates can be placed on the Sticky
Stuff adhesive matting. In this case, all fastening screws must be re-
moved to avoid damaging the adhesive matting.
During installation, ensure that the tray is always loaded evenly.
