2   |   CORNING LAMBDA PLUS PIPETTORS 

The pipettor design allows the user to lock the volume 

setting by sliding the locking ring upwards.

The symbols printed on the handle show locked and 

unlocked positions. The volume range of each pipettor 

model is shown on the pipetting pushbutton (A1).
Liquids are aspirated into disposable pipet tips attached 

to the pipettor shaft. Disposable pipet tips ensure 

maximum safety and eliminate the possibility of cross-

contamination of the liquid samples. To protect the user 

from contaminated pipet tips, the pipettor is fitted with a 

built-in tip ejector (D).

Single-channel Pipettor Ejector

The ejector length can be adjusted to accommodate all 

common brands of pipet tips. When using narrow tubes, 

it may be necessary to remove the tip ejector. This is done 

simply by pulling down.

Adjusting the Tip Ejector Length

2 to 1,000 μL Pipettors

The “H“ spacers included with 

each pipettor, allow the ejector 

length to be adjusted by +1 mm 

or +2 mm.
An ”H0” spacer is fitted as 

standard. The outside shape 

of the spacer identifies the 

adjustment.

2 and 10 μL Pipettors 

The 2 μL to 10 μL pipettors may 

require the use of an ejector cap 

“M” to efficiently eject certain 

brands of pipet tips. Simply 

place the cap (supplied with the 

pipettor) on the bottom of the 

pipettor shaft and slide the cap 

upwards until it surrounds the 

bottom of the tip ejector.
