2. eLINE® Electronic
Pipettes
The eLINE® electronic pipettes offer you the specialised
technology and innovations in the field of the hand held
liquid handling devices. The attractive and ergonomic
design of the eLINE® pipettes together with electronic
tip ejection operation take the effort out of pipetting
and reduce the risk of repetitive strain injuries (RSI) that
are common in mechanical pipetting.
The microprocessor controlled system and the superior
construction of the eLINE® pipettes enables maximum
liquid handling performance with high levels of accuracy
and precision. The microprocessor controlled piston
movements reduces the possibility of human error and
thus also contamination of the pipette interior. The tip
cone design of the eLINE® pipettes offer the possibility
to use replaceable Safe-Cone Filters to help prevent
contamination and damage of the pipette.
The eLINE® electronic pipettes offers a comprehensive
range of liquid handling protocols, typically required by
laboratories currently. The simple keyboard and easy-to-
read display together with user-friendly operation and
programming allows these tasks to be performed quickly
and effortlessly. The eLINE® pipettes operate on the air
displacement principle and use disposable tips.
