The Bravo 96AM Head components include:

96 channels for liquid handling. Each channel consists of a syringe with a probe on
the end. A syringe consists of a glass barrel with a plunger and a seal. The syringes
can employ a combination of direct-liquid-flow and air-displacement techniques for
liquid-handling tasks.
The following figure shows a syringe and a cross-sectional close-up view of the
plunger in the probe.
