liquid in a well
exceeds the
admissible value (2
μl)
Depth of the manifold
immersion is not

Perform well depth measurement in the automatic
mode.
Obstruction of the manifold
aspiration channel or a
needle.
Check if the aspiration channel and needles are not
obstructed. If yes, do their cleaning (see
“Obstruction of dispensing channel or a needle in

Storage and transportation
.
10.8.1. Remove the manifold, tubes and platform for plates.
10.8.2. Put on packaging blocks onto sides of the unit and place it into the original carton
box.
10.8.3. Place the manifold into protecting case; place syringe, manifold cleaning set and the
platform into PE bag. Place the bag and the case with the manifold in the corners of
the box between the packaging blocks and the side panels of the carton box; place
the 2-litre bottle and the half-litre bottle in free space between the packaging blocks
and the side panels of the carton box.
10.8.4. Insert the top section into the carton box by bending the section downwards along
the perimeter and inserting the bent parts between the walls of the original carton box
and packaging blocks, so that the device and the remaining content of the box are
fully covered.
10.8.5. Put the soft foam sheet (grey) with the smooth side down on the resulting horizontal
carton surface.
10.8.6. Put the remaining three bottles and other accessories on the foam sheet.
10.8.7. If 4-channel weight logger is included in the kit, insert pads under scale cups, then
place the logger into top section of packaging.
10.8.8. Cover everything with another sheet of soft foam material with the smooth side up.
10.8.9. Close the box and seal with packing tape.
