The S3 Pipettor uses the exclusive EZ-Load tips to simplify pipettor operation with 
disposable tips. This patented technology is the only system using disposable tips 
that do not need to be “pressed on” with excessive downward force in order to 
create a reliable seal. Load disposable tips into the head quickly and easily. No tools 
required for a consistent seal! 
 

 

 

The S3 Pipettor features an interchangeable pipetting core. To change the core: 
 

Step 1 

Enter Settings and select “Change Core” from the Settings.
