This topic provides recommendations for maintaining the BenchCel Microplate
Handler.
In general, practice good housekeeping by cleaning up spills and routinely cleaning after
using the BenchCel Microplate Handler.
Use a clean soft cloth or laboratory wipes to clean up spills on any part of the device
immediately after a protocol run.
Clean the BenchCel device weekly or as needed. Use standard laboratory wipes and a
mild detergent or isopropyl alcohol to clean the exterior painted white surfaces and the
metal surfaces of dust, grime, chemical deposits, and other debris.

Every month, check the following:
•
Robot gripper pins. Make sure they are not too dull to grip the microplates. If the
pins have become dull, contact Agilent Technical Support to replace them.
