calibration nut at the top of the handle.
-
Turn the service tool clockwise to increase the volume or counter clockwise to
decrease the volume.
-
After the adjustment, check the calibration as described above.
Manual multichannel pipettes
-
The adjustment is done at the lower volume with one of the middle channels.
-
Place the service tool that comes with the pipette into the openings of the
calibration nut at the top of the handle.
-
Turn the service tool clockwise to increase the volume or counter clockwise to
decrease the volume.
-
After the adjustment, check the calibration as described above.
Finnpipette BioControl single channel module
-
Adjustment is done in the calibration mode. To change the current calibration,
do as follows:
1. Start the calibration software that comes with the pipette.
2. Choose the volume range.
3. Enter the mean volume of the ten pipettings performed with both volumes
(done in the calibration check) to the fields.
4. Take the pipette and determine the values of the HK- and PK-factors: push
down the MODE-button and keep it down and then push the + and -
buttons as well. CALIBRATE text is now blinking, push SET to accept. The
current HK-factor is now blinking followed by the PK-factor. Note: These
factors have different values depending on the module, so please check
that you choose the right module.
5. Enter these factors to the OLD FACTORS fields of the calibration software.
6. To get the new factors, click the CALCULATE button. The new factors will
be displayed.
-
Alternatively the Finnpipette Calibration Software may be used to determine the
new HK- and PK-factors.
-
Take the pipette again and change the HK- and PK-factors with + and - buttons,
then accept the new values by pushing the SET button.
-
After the adjustment, check the calibration as described above. When using the
Finnpipette Calibration Software, continue according to the on-screen menus
after entering the new values for HK- and PK-factors to the handle unit.
