CARE AND USE OF 96 BUBBLE PADDLE
MAGNETIC CLUTCH RESERVOIRS
Figure 1. VP 756C-96B Bubble Paddle Reservoir and VP 763B shown with Tecan Evo
plate carrier. Control and Power Supply not shown.
SETUP AND OPERATION
1.
Place the VP 756C-96B Bubble Paddle Reservoir onto the VP 763B Motor/Magnetic
Clutch/Heater/Chiller unit. Align the pins on the VP 763B to the registration holes on the VP
756CP-96B. Make sure the Bubble Paddle Reservoir is level on the VP 763B. See Figures 1 and
2.
2.
The VP 763B unit has a feature on the bottom that will fit into a standard SBS footprint plate
holder. Use this feature to locate and register the unit to a robotic deck.
3.
Be sure the protective metal shim is in place between the wall of the reservoir and the bubble
paddle magnetic clutches. See Figure 2. The metal shim will prevent the magnetic clutch from
boring a hole in the reservoir wall.
