Pipetting with comfort, accuracy and precision
All models of this pipettor feature easy volume setting with either one hand using the thumb-wheel (even when wearing gloves) or with two hands using the push button
Multichannel pipette range expanded
The sleek, black pipette fits naturally in the hand, requires less effort to use and produces less force - for smoother, stress-free, long-time pipetting every day
The sleek, black pipette fits naturally in the hand, requires less effort to use and produces less force- for smoother, stress-free, long-time pipetting every day.
Pipetman Ultra adapts to all users, right or left-handed.
With its three position natural movement tip-ejector you require less force to eject tips, resulting in less fatigue and no more sore thumbs.
The tip ejector also has an adjustable stroke (patented) for maximum compatibility and improved comfort when ejecting tips.
Pipetman Ultra introduces major improvements in pipetting with its exclusive patented multi-functional electronic display.
The four-digit display, including decimal point and volumetric units, provides greater readability and improved accuracy.
The risk of parallax errors, often a problem with analogue displays, is eliminated, ensuring 100% precision in volume selection.
This is further enhanced by the lockable volume thumbwheel that prevents the risk of volume change during pipetting - essential for GLP.
The LCD display also brings further GLP security and traceability functions with out of specification warnings and cycle counters - from the last time the volume was set, to check the number of cycles in the current run plus a record of the number of cycles since the pipette was first used, to monitor servicing requirements.
The Pipetman Ultra range includes eight models from U2 (0.2 to 2µl) up to U10 (1 to 10ml).
All feature easy volume setting with either one hand using the thumb-wheel (even when wearing gloves) or with two hands using the push button.
They can be personalised to their application or user with the protected colour coded labels or bar code from the warranty card.
Maintenance and cleaning are ultra easy with the autoclavable tip-holder and ejector, direct access to the piston and O-ring and included recalibration tool. Request a free brochure from Anachem ...
