The fastest microplate vusher: triple flushing of a 96-hole microplate in 14.5 seconds

single-rail platform for 96- and 384-well microplates; current version - LB 920N

The Zoom HT is a high-performance waxer for fast and reproducible washing of the 96- and 384-well series of microplates; the current version of the platform is available as the LB 920N.

Built-in stacker and single-rail transport ensure continuous batch processing of up to 30 microplates. One 96-channel washing module works with 96 and 384 well formats without replacing the head. Three-dimensional positioning of aspiration needles and circular aspiration reduce residual volume, and four inputs for washing solutions and the use of aspiration. Administrator-protected programs simplify serial ELISA and cellular processes.

Formats: 96-well microplates and strips, 384-well microplates ANSI / SLAS. Wash volume 5-300 μl; 1-99 cycles per program, up to 50 programs, Regular and Superwash modes. Residual volume less than 1 μl / well. Triple washing of 96-well microplate 300 μl takes 14.5 s, stacked - 17 s; typical performance up to 190 washed Stirring up to 80 s at 12 Hz Dimensions 589×420×645 mm, weight 26.3 kg.
