cBot 2 Components
The cBot 2 uses sensors to detect the presence of run components, and provides prompts
when a component is missing or installed incorrectly. The thermal stage and reagent stage
are located under the instrument lid. A magnetic switch keeps the lid closed, and a sensor
detects when it is opened. For safety, the software prompts you to close the lid before
proceeding with the run.

cBot 2 Components
A
Thermal stage
—Holds the flow cell and controls the flow cell temperature throughout the
run.
B
Reagent stage
—Holds the cBot reagent plate, library templates, and specialty primers. For
runs with sample tracking, a barcode scanner located behind the reagent stage records the ID
of the reagent plate and the 8-tube strip containing template.
C
Waste bottle compartment
—Holds a sensor-controlled waste bottle that collects spent
reagents.
D
External barcode scanner
—Records the unique ID of the reagent plate and flow cell used
with each run that does not include sample tracking.
E
Power switch
—Turns on the instrument. The start button, located to the left of the waste
bottle compartment, starts the instrument software.
F
Touch screen monitor
—Provides on-instrument run setup and visual status of the cluster
generation process.
G
Flow cell barcode scanner
—Records the unique ID of the flow cell used with each sample
tracked run.
Thermal Stage
The thermal stage holds the flow cell and manifold, which is seated over the flow cell. The
flow cell clamp locks the flow cell and manifold into place.
WARNING
Do not touch the aluminum thermal block on the thermal stage. The heater poses a serious
burn hazard during operation. For more safety information, see the
cBot 2 System Safety and
Compliance Guide (document # 15065643)
