Vacuum Pump (Optional and sold separately by Labcyte)
The Echo Liquid Handler requires a vacuum source. The vacuum dries source plates before they are unloaded. This requirement
can be met through a house vacuum or a vacuum pump.
The vacuum source should have the following specifications:
House supply
Minimum 200 Torr (266 mbar, 22 in Hg Vac) minimum pumping speed 8.0
m3/hr
Standalone vacuum with surge tank (10 L)
100 Torr (133 mbar, 26 in Hg Vac), minimum pumping speed 2.0 m3/hr
Customers must provide a fitting that connects the vacuum source and the Echo Liquid Handler vacuum line. The supplied
vacuum line is HercoBraid, 9.5 mm (3/8 in) ID, 9.5 mm (5/8 in) OD (RyanHerco P/N 0512-072).
A standalone Vacuubrand MZ 2S-NT vacuum system can be purchased from Labcyte (Part #001-8104). This vacuum is a dual
voltage/cycle compatible system.
