A stainless steel tip ejector is provided with all models except P-
5000 and P-10ML, for safe disposal of used tips. The ejector can
be removed by pulling on the plastic collar on the ejector arm.
Reattachment is quick and easy.
Autoclaving
The shaft and tip ejector are autoclavable: 121°C, 1 bar, 15–20
minutes. (P-5000, P-10ML do not use tip ejectors.)
Volume Indicator
The digital volume indicator is read from top to bottom. For P-2,
P-10, P-20, P-100, and P-200, black digits indicate microliters
and red digits tenths and hundredths of microliters. For P-1000
and P-5000, red digits indicate milliliters and black digits micro-
liters. For P-10ML, black digits indicate milliliters and red digit
tenths of a milliliter.

Safety Filter, P-5000 and P-10ML
Models P-5000 and P-10ML use a safety filter in the end of the
shaft to help prevent liquid entering the shaft and contacting the
piston, should the plunger be allowed to snap up during aspira-
tion. This is particularly important using large volumes. If the filter
gets wet, replace it.
For P-5000 insert the small diameter into the shaft; for
P-10ML insert the large diameter into the shaft.
