Microplate Washer - Dynex Agility Automated ELISA System Operator's Manual

Chapter 3 System Design

3.8 Microplate Washer

The system incorporates a microplate washer module (Figure 3-7). The system washer has an
8-way wash head capable of dispensing to a standard microplate strip format. The Wash Head
floats mechanically (minimum of 3 mm) to allow for any inaccuracy of matching the wash
head to the plate.
Figure 3-7: Microplate Washer Module
The wash head pin heights are configurable to allow specific wash head heights to be used
and adjusted when a specific plate type definition is selected for an assay. Wash head heights
are configurable for:
 Dispense Height
 Top of well height
 Aspirate Height
 Sweep Height (+ sweep width)
 Bottom Wash height
