Description
The Microplate Washer YG1746 and YG1747 series represents a breakthrough in laboratory automation, combining 8-well and 12-well wash head configurations with intelligent fluid management for precision ELISA processing. Featuring selectable strip washing (keyboard-direct selection) and compatibility with U-/V-/flat-bottom plates, these systems deliver complete washing flexibility. The advanced soak & shake technology (0-999s adjustable duration) ensures thorough well cleaning, while automatic waste buffer and distilled water monitoring prevents dry runs. With dual-channel dispensing (0-950μL adjustable volume) and capacity for 100 stored programs, these compact units (440×305×154mm) optimize laboratory workflows without sacrificing bench space.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What plate formats are supported?
Standard 96-well plates, 8-well and 12-well strips, and custom configurations. - How does the fluid warning system work?
Automatically alerts users to low buffer or water levels to prevent pump damage. - Can I wash specific rows or columns?
Yes, the system offers selective washing by row, column, or individual strips.
