Chip Cartridge - PerkinElmer LabChip GX User Manual

Chip Cartridge

The Chip Cartridge holds the chip, provides the voltage to the chip
channels to load, inject, and separate the sample, provides
pressure to prime the chip with separation gel, and provides
vacuum to the chip wells to pull samples from the microplate into
the chip. The Chip Cartridge also contains a heating element to
maintain a constant temperature in the chip's microfluidic channels
and provides an optically black beam dump to increase sensitivity
and aid fluorescence detection.
