Its dual-compatible 8 and 12-channel manifold options are designed to accommodate a range of plate formats while ensuring thorough wash results. Integrated safety mechanisms like overflow protection and automatic microplate detection boost operational reliability.
Robust Construction and MaintenanceConstructed from ABS plastic and metal with a compact footprint (approx. 430 x 320 x 130 mm), this unit is lightweight at around 7 kg but durable for heavy-duty laboratory tasks. The removable parts make cleaning and maintenance simple, extending equipment longevity. The analyzer is energy-efficient, operating at 40 W with a quiet function (<60 dB), making it well-suited for diverse laboratory environments.
FAQs of ELISA WASHWELL PLATE ANALYZER:
Q: How does the ELISA WASHWELL Plate Analyzer ensure minimal residual volume after washing?
A: The analyzer utilizes bottom aspiration technology, paired with programmable rinse cycles and soak functions, to achieve a residual volume of less than 0.5 l per well. This prevents cross-contamination and delivers consistent, reliable results.
Q: What types of microplates and manifolds are compatible with this analyzer?
A: The system is designed for 96-well microplates and supports both 8-channel and 12-channel manifolds, making it versatile for different assay and throughput needs in laboratory routines.
Q: When should the soak function be used, and why is it beneficial?
A: The programmable soak function is ideal when stronger wash efficacy is required, such as for sticky or hard-to-remove samples. Adjusting the soak time ensures maximum reagent penetration and effective removal of residues.
Q: Where is the ELISA WASHWELL Plate Analyzer best utilized?
A: This analyzer is suited for clinical diagnostics, research laboratories, and medical labs where high-throughput, accurate, and efficient ELISA plate washing is essential to workflow productivity and assay integrity.
Q: What is the process for maintaining and cleaning the analyzer?
A: Regular maintenance is simplified thanks to easy-to-remove washable components. It is recommended to clean the manifolds, waste lines, and bottle reservoirs following the integrated software protocols to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Q: How does the automatic microplate detection feature enhance safety?
A: Automatic microplate detection, together with overflow protection, ensures that washing only proceeds when a plate is present and correctly positioned, preventing operational errors, spillage, and instrument damage.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this plate analyzer in the laboratory setting?
A: Laboratories benefit from automated, reliable washing cycles that enhance assay consistency, reduce hands-on time, and minimize sample cross-contamination, while the equipments intuitive controls and robust design promote ease of use and maintenance.
