4. Hardware Description
The Crocodile miniWorkstation is a compact desktop unit which has
been specifically designed to automate assay applications in 96 well
formats. The Crocodile 5-in-one is equipped with all necessary
components required for running an ELISA Assay (washer, dispenser,
shaker, incubator and reader). Crocodile 4-in-one is a model without
reader. Due to its small footprint, Crocodile can be set up in any lab
workplace.

4.1 Microplate holder
All 96- well microplates in standard format can be run on the
Crocodile miniWorkstation. The microplate is placed on a mobile
microplate holder located on top of the instrument. The software
controls the movement of the microplate holder. Always keep the
microplate holder free of dust and dirt. In emergencies (power
failure), the plate holder may be moved manually.
Loading/Unloading the microplate
The microplate holder is marked with A1 on the right back side. Place
the microplate on to the plate transport such that the digits on the
microplate are located on the back right side – from the user’s
perspective.
