1.1 Features
The Research plus pipettes are piston-stroke pipettes that operate according to the air-cushion
principle.
When the control button is pressed, the piston in the pipette moves in the same direction. If the
control button and the piston are moved upwards, the liquid can be aspirated into the pipette tip.
With the downward movement of the piston, the liquid is dispensed (measuring stroke).
Blow-out occurs if the downward piston stroke exceeds the first stop.
Depending on the Research plus pipette it is possible to dispense volumes from 0.1 μL to 10 mL.
The Research plus family consists of single-channel and multi-channel pipettes (8 and
12-channels) with variable volume settings, as well as single-channel fixed-volume pipettes. You
can find a list of all available models of the Research plus in the "Technical Data" section.
All Research plus pipettes are fully autoclavable.
You can adjust the Research plus pipettes. The side viewing window displays the change in the
adjustment.
When attaching a pipette tip, the spring-loading action of the tip cone is activated (exceptions
5 mL and 10 mL pipettes).
