Description
The Xplorer® plus 8-channel pipette is an electronic air-cushion pipette with variable volume setting from 50 to 1200 µL that establishes high standards of simplicity, precision and reproducibility. Intuitive handling is achieved via a multifunction rocker using “up is up” and “down is down” logic for aspiration and dispensing, together with a selection dial that provides direct access to all pipetting modes. The self-explanatory colour display avoids complex submenus and offers an ergonomic viewing angle for clear readability in every working position. Spring-loaded tip cones reduce attachment forces on all variants up to 1000 µL. A powerful battery permits up to eight hours of continuous use and allows operation while charging from the mains. Pre-programmed as well as individual adjustments compensate for external conditions such as altitude, high-density liquids or extended tips. Autoclavable lower parts simplify decontamination. Nine display languages are supported, including English, German, French, Spanish and others. Further functions comprise individual programming, fixed volume settings, password protection, on/off switch, additional applications and maintenance-interval display. This green-coded model from manufacturer Eppendorf is intended for demanding multichannel laboratory workflows.

Questions about Xplorer plus 50-1200µL/8c.
What is this article?
Xplorer plus 50-1200µL/8c. is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Multichannel pipettes, inside Liquid handling, in Instruments de précision.
A multichannel pipette delivers the same volume into several wells at once, usually 8 or 12, so a plate can be filled a row at a time. The channels have to sit on the plate pitch. A channel that does not seal on its tip delivers a different volume, quietly.
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.
