Description
The height of the white plastic spacer, if present,
that can be placed in the base manually before
starting the protocol. The insert is used to raise
the height of the collection plate and reduce the
spacing between the filter plate nozzles and the
collection plate underneath.
Measure the height (mm) from the bottom edge
to the top edge of the insert. If you are using
multiple inserts, measure the combined height of
the stack of inserts.
If no insert is in the base, use a value of 0.0 mm
(default).
CAUTION
If the assembled stack of plates
and inserts is too tall, the collar of the Vacuum
Filtration Station may not seal properly during the
vacuum tasks, and the software will display an
error message.
Description
The location of the assembled Vacuum Filtration
Station.
Description
The action of the task. The options are On, Off,
and Timed.
•
On and Off. If you are not timing the
filtering process, add two Move and Filter
Plate tasks in the protocol for each filtering
operation. One task turns on the vacuum
(Mode = On), and the other task turns off
the vacuum (Mode = Off).
•
Timed. If you plan to time the filtering
process, add only one Move and Filter Plate
task. The task turns on the vacuum, and
then turns off the vacuum automatically at
the end of the time period.
