Description
Reference 2 fixed 500 µL blue is a single-channel mechanical air-cushion pipette engineered for outstanding precision and accuracy in routine liquid handling. One-button control covers volume selection, pipetting and tip ejection, supporting fast, ergonomic operation with reduced force and actively lowered aerosol formation. Distinct haptic feedback helps avoid unintentional tip ejection. A four-digit display with magnifying window allows quick, secure volume setting and recognition from any viewing angle, complemented by volume lock. Spring-loaded tip cones improve user-independent reproducibility and ergonomics by lowering attachment forces. The uniquely smooth surface together with full autoclavability enables efficient decontamination, making the instrument well suited to work under sterile conditions. Temporary adjustment permits simple fine-tuning for different liquids or external conditions without a full recalibration procedure. This fixed-volume model in blue, with nominal volume 500 µL (0,0005 l), is offered as 1 pc from manufacturer Eppendorf and replaces former order number 4921000141 within the Reference® 2 series of high-precision microlitre pipettes for laboratory use.
This article is part of Single-channel pipettes, in Liquid handling.

Questions about Reference 2 fixed 500µL blue
What is this article?
Reference 2 fixed 500µL blue is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Single-channel pipettes, inside Liquid handling, in Lab instruments.
A single-channel piston pipette delivers one volume through one tip. Fixed-volume pipettes are more accurate at their one volume. Variable pipettes cover a range and are specified at several points in it. Air displacement fails on viscous and volatile liquids.
A piston pipette delivers a set volume of liquid by air displacement or, for viscous and volatile liquids, by positive displacement. A single channel is the ordinary tool. A multichannel repeats the same volume across a row of a plate. A bottle-top dispenser meters reagent from the bottle it sits on. The accuracy is a property of the pipette and of how it is used, which is why calibration and a certificate exist. Piston-operated apparatus is treated under ISO laboratory apparatus. The volume unit sits with the BIPM and NIST.
