epMotion® 5073l
Product Information
The epMotion 5073l is a flexible system for automating time-consuming and complex pipetting procedures with the epBlue™ software, making routine Liquid Handling tasks easier than ever. The pipetting procedure is more precise, reproducible and fully standardised, making your workplace more ergonomic and safer. The epMotion P5073 is a customized system for automatic PCR preparation in the 96 or 384 plate formats and is delivered with all accessories required for preparing PCR samples; only consumables need to be ordered separately.
Dispensing Tools
- Free-jet pipetting, no tubes, no wires, no air bubbles to minimize cross-contamination
- Contact pipetting, for better performance at volumes <1 µL
- Excellent pipetting precision, below 2% cv at 1 µL*
- Volume range: 0.2-10 µL, 1–50 µL, 20–300 µL and 40–1000 µL
- Single or 8-channel
- Autoclavable & easy to maintain
- Automatic calibration warning
- Calibration based on ISO 8655
CleanCap - UV/HEPA
The CleanCap option can be configured for new epMotion 5073 & 5075 versions.Here a UV light (254 nm) is used for decontamination and the HEPA filtersprovide clean air inside of the epMotion.
Gripper Tool
The gripper tool allows transport of labware on the worktable of epMotion 5073 or 5075 versions. It is loaded by automatic tool exchange and can be programmed easily in the software. The stacking of up to 5 plates is possible.
