Chapter 1: Introduction
Compatibility With the Bio-Stack System
The ELx405, Select, HT, and Select CW models are compatible with Bio-Tek’s
Bio-Stack

Microplate Stacker (see
Figure 1
on the following page). The basecode
software of these washers has been modified so that their normal operating displays
now include the Bio-Stack options. Upgrade kits are also available for customers who
purchased their ELx405 and Select models before modifications to the basecode. (
All
HT and Select CW models support the Bio-Stack.)
Controlled serially by the ELx405

, the Bio-Stack can rapidly and systematically
transfer microplates one at a time to and from the washer, and includes:
•
Removable stacks (one input and one output) that can hold up to 30
microplates each.
•
Optional restacking of plates to maintain correct sequencing.
•
The ability to continue processing a stack of plates following the
aborting/failure of one plate.
•
The ability to pause processing to allow the user to add more plates to the
input stack or to remove some from the output stack.
If you have purchased the Bio-Stack to operate with the ELx405, Select, HT, and Select
CW, refer to the Bio-Stack Operator’s Manual for instructions on configuring the
washer to run with the Bio-Stack. If you are interested in purchasing the Bio-Stack,
contact your local Bio-Tek dealer for more information.
