| |
| Broad Microplate Compatibility |
 |
The Matrix WellMate is compatible with the widest variety of standard and deep well microplates including 6, 12, 24, 48, 96, and 384 well, all on the same instrument with minimal adjustments. |
| |
| PTFE-Coated Drip Tray with Spill Barrier |
 |
Helps prevent spills from contacting electronics. |
| |
| Simple Pump Motor Controls |
| |
Support fast, easy manual priming and emptying of tubing lines. Fluid flow can be manually reversed to recover valuable reagent contained in the lines. |
| |
| Inexpensive Disposable Tubing Cartridges |
 |
On top of its flexibility and functionality, the Matrix WellMate offers unique cost efficiencies with inexpensive, pre-sterilized and pre-calibrated tubing cartridges. Economical enough to be disposable, yet rugged enough to be autoclaved for long-term use, our individually packaged tubing cartridges are ideally suited to a variety of users and applications. |
| |
| Visual/Audible Safety System |
| |
Prevents pump motor rotation when tubing is not clamped correctly. |
| |
| Standard 9-Pin RS232 Programming |
| |
Offers flexible robotic integration options. |
| |
| |
| Standard-Bore Nozzle Orifice |
 |
Silicone-based tubing cartridges are available with a standard-bore nozzle orifice for six to 96 well plate filling and volumes above 20µL. |
| |
| Small-Bore Nozzle Orifice |
 |
Silicone-based tubing cartridges are available with a small-bore nozzle orifice for lower volume (1.0µL and above) applications and 384 well plate filling. |
| |
| Nozzle Selection Guide |
 |
Matrix WellMate tubing cartridges come in economical packs of five making it possible to keep several cartridges on hand for reagent-specific plate filling applications. Each cartridge can be used to fill 1,000 plates. Use the nozzle selection guide to help identify the appropriate tubing cartridge for your particular plate-filling application. |
| |
| Programming and Dispensing Flexibility |
 |
Among Matrix WellMate’s capabilities is a unique programming innovation that allows you to select plate columns to be filled or left empty. Rather than always filling the entire plate, an operator can now choose discrete columns to be filled on a particular plate or block. |
| |
| Advanced Plate Filling Options |
 |
The instrument also allows you to quickly and easily offset the dispense nozzles over microplate wells so liquid can be dispensed towards the front or back of a well. This feature, coupled with the ability to teach left/right well offsets, enables dispensing into any position in a well, and makes Matrix WellMate one of the most accommodating plate fillers available today. |
