Fixed volume – unlimited

The air displacement fixed volume pipettes come with all goodfeatures of the new instrument generation. These include slimergonomic design, ultra-soft plunger stroke, autoclavability,and much more. Available in a wide selection of 1, 5 and 10 μLultra-micro volumes, micro sizes from 10 to 1000 μL, andmacro volumes models of 2 mL, 2.5 mL, 5 mL and 10 mL.

Engineered ergonomics and design

The challenge for our engineers in combining high-tech material with

ergonomic design was far above average, and they succeeded excellently.

Whether in research or routine applications, the result is an instrument

designed and built with the users in mind. The precision pipettes offer

much more than superior performance. Enjoy exceptional convenience,

comfort, safety and sturdiness, enjoy your Acura®.

Digital display always visible at

a glance

Located on the front of theinstrument, the display window allowsset volume to be visible at all timesduring pipetting. A comfortingreassurance for the user.

Tip ejection – easier than ever

Most ergonomically positioned, the largesurface, soft padded ejector buttonprovides for low-pressure activation. Inaddition to ease of tip ejection, the shaftheight adjustment system called Justip™(4 mm span) – controlled by efficientclick-stops – allows a wide selection oftips to tightly fit the nozzle.

Smart and reliable

volume adjustment

State-of-the-art micrometric volumesetting is performed smoothly andprecisely by turning push button.Finely machined click-stops and freerotating cap prevent any unwantedvolume alteration.

Adjustable volume micro and macropipettes

Equipped with a precision digital display, the new line is continously adjustabledown to a very fine volume resolution. Single-handed volume setting is easy whenthe other hand is busy. Measuring unknown volumes by aspiration is also possiblewith a high degree of accuracy. Click-stops, together with freely rotating smartie

plunger button cap ensure setting stability while pipetting.

A total of 8 micropipettes covering the range from 0.1 to 1000 μL and 2 macropipettes ranging 0.5 – 5 mL and 1 – 10 mL are available.

Minimum maintenance/sterilisation

Shock, heat, chemicals and UV lightresistance is provided by carefullyselected materials and goodconstruction. Consequently,maintenance requirementsare close to non-existant.

Thorough cleaning andsterilisation can be achieved byautoclaving the instrument fullyassembled (121°C, 20 minutes).
