Waste Tub
When starting a measurement with the actions ‘injection’ or ‘dispense’, 5 µl of
liquid are dispensed into a disposable container on the plate carrier before
starting ‘injection’ or ‘dispense’.
This initial dispense step makes sure that the injection/dispense conditions are
equal for each well. This special dispense step depends on the selected refill
mode selected on the injector or dispense strip (see chapter 2.4.1 i-Control and
Injectors for details).
When using ‘standard’ refill mode, the dispense step is performed after each refill.
When using ‘refill for every injection’ the dispense step is only performed once
when starting the measurement.
The disposable waste container (waste tub) must therefore be emptied from time
to time. The maximum filling volume is 1.5 ml. An internal counter checks the
dispensed liquid volumes and the software alerts the user when it is time to
empty the waste tub.
