Introduction
The AquaMax
®
Microplate Washers from Molecular Devices can be easily
configured to meet your current application requirements. The modular
design provides affordable upgrade options when your lab requirements
change.
Instrument Features
AquaMax 2000 and AquaMax 4000 Microplate Washers can be
configured to process 96-well and 384-well microplates used in both
biochemical and cell-based assays.
• Wash heads are available in 96-well and 384-well configurations
for both plate wash and cell wash.
• All wash heads are interchangeable. The software automatically
detects which wash head is installed.
• The AquaMax Microplate Washer primes, cleans, and rinses the
wash heads with the touch of a single button.
• The AquaMax Microplate Washer processes all plate wells
simultaneously during dispense, aspirate, and wash operations.
• Whole-well dispensing and aspiration in 384-well plates result in
2 to 4 times faster plate processing than other commercially
available plate washers.
• The AquaMax Microplate Washer supports most microplate
formats through its user-definable plate library. Up to 32 plate
types can be stored in the plate library.
• The AquaMax Microplate Washer is equipped with two
(AquaMax 2000 washer) or four (AquaMax 4000 washer) reagent
ports to connect 2 or 4 different dispense bottles. Waste can be
drained into any waste bottle. Non-toxic waste can be drained
directly into a sink. The AquaMax Microplate Washer supports
4 L or 10 L bottles only.
• All washer operations are controlled through an on-board
touch-screen user interface.
• The program library can store up to 3 factory-defined and 100
user-defined programs. Each program can contain up to 50 steps.
