Confirm The Level Of The Wash Or Rinse Bottle - Molecular Devices MultiWash+ User Manual

Confirm the Level of the Wash or Rinse Bottle

If the Liquid Warning option is enabled in the Setup menu, then the software displays a
prompt to make sure that the applicable wash or rinse bottle has sufficient liquid for the
process.
CAUTION! Running a prime or rinse process without sufficient liquid in the wash or
rinse bottle can damage the instrument. The minimum volume required for a
Prime/Rinse function is 7.5mL+1.5mL (total of 9mL), where 7.5mL is the volume of
liquid in the tube (from Rinse bottle to Dispense head of manifold) and 1.5mL is the
volume dispensed during the Prime/Rinse cycle. We suggest using a little more than
7.5mL + 1.5mL to have enough backup pressure to push liquid through the tube and
dispense the required volume (1.5mL).
