The reverse technique is suitable for dispensing liquids that have a high
viscosity or a tendency to foam easily. The technique is also recommended for
dispensing very small volumes.
Fill a clean reagent reservoir with the liquid to be dispensed.
1. Dip the tip under the surface of the liquid in the reservoir and press the
trigger. This action will fi ll the tip.
2. Withdraw the tip from the liquid touching it against the edge of the reservoir
to remove excess liquid.
3. Deliver the preset volume by
shortly pressing the trigger.
Some liquid
will remain in the tip and this should not be included in the delivery. A text
BLOWOUT is displayed.
4. To empty the tip, press trigger again.
If necessary, change the tip and continue pipetting.
The repetitive technique offers a rapid and simple procedure for repeated
delivery of the same volume. Fill a clean reagent reservoir with the liquid to
be dispensed.
1. Dip the tip under the surface of the liquid in the reservoir and press the
trigger. This action will fi ll the tip.
2. Withdraw the tip from the liquid touching it against the edge of the reservoir
to remove excess liquid.
3. Deliver the preset volume by
pressing and holding the trigger down.
Some liquid will remain in the tip and this should not be included in the
delivery.
4. Dip the tip again to reagent reservoir and release the trigger. This action will
fi ll the tip again.
5. Continue pipetting by repeating steps 3 and 4.
6. To empty the tip completely, dispense by
shortly
pressing the trigger.
Some liquid will remain in the tip and this should not be included in the
delivery. A text BLOWOUT is displayed.
