BRAND piston-operated pipette Transferpette S, variable
This precise piston-operated pipette has been specially developed for laboratory professionals who demand maximum accuracy and ergonomic operation. Thanks to its sophisticated design, it can be used in almost any environment, from academic research laboratories to industrial quality control and medical facilities. Compared to conventional pipettes, this model offers extremely comfortable handling and reliable volume accuracy, allowing users to work efficiently and without fatigue even over long periods of time.
Features and functions
This micropipette is designed to minimize operating errors and enable smooth handling. Its short stroke and low operating forces significantly reduce strain on the hand muscles, which is a clear advantage for long pipetting cycles. An integrated volume adjustment protection prevents the selected volume from being inadvertently adjusted. In addition, the pipette is particularly easy to adjust using Easy Calibration technology, without the need for additional tools.
Important features at a glance:
- Volume ranges from 0.1 µl to 10 ml for single-channel variants
- Fully autoclavable at 121 °C for rapid sterilization
- Universal tip holder cone for a wide selection of suitable tips
- Color-coded adjustment wheel and shaft for immediate volume recognition
- High chemical resistance thanks to high-quality plastics and corrosion-resistant components
- UV resistance for use in light-intensive areas
- Easy adjustment with the help of Easy Calibration technology
The color concept for the shaft, volume adjustment protection and adjustment wheel allows intuitive assignment of the selected pipette or tip variant, reducing confusion in the laboratory. In addition, an ergonomically shaped handle ensures safe and comfortable working, regardless of whether the pipette is operated with the right or left hand.
Another plus point is the smooth tip ejection without any great effort. This pays off in series applications where pipette tips need to be changed frequently. Thanks to optional O-rings (especially for multi-channel pipettes), the tips always fit tightly and can still be ejected quickly.Certifications and standards
The pipettes in this series are generally tested and calibrated in accordance with the strict specifications of DIN EN ISO 8655 to ensure consistent results. Thanks to this conformity with standards, the device offers maximum precision and reliability in everyday laboratory work.
Typical application examples
This variable single-channel or multi-channel pipette is used in a wide range of applications. It has proven itself in the following areas in particular:
- Precise dosing of reagents in microbiological tests, for example when counting bacterial colonies with defined preparations.
- RNA and DNA work in molecular biology, for example in PCR assays or enzyme reactions, where exact volume settings are essential.
- Clinical analysis for dosing sensitive samples such as blood sera or other body fluids and reagents that require reliable results.
- Quality assurance in industrial laboratories when various substances such as solvents, buffers or viscous media need to be pipetted precisely.
The universal tip holder cone allows a wide range of common pipette tips to be used. A slimmer shaft can be selected for particularly narrow vessels so that samples can be taken easily.
FAQs
How is the pipetting volume set?
Using a non-slip adjustment wheel, which is color-coded and equipped with a volume adjustment protection. This protects against unintentional changes to the set value.
Can the device be sterilized?
Yes. All components are fully autoclavable at 121 °C, which enables efficient and safe sterilization.
How is the adjustment carried out without tools?
The integrated Easy Calibration technology allows quick adjustment by turning the adjustment wheel in the corresponding opening on the pipette shaft. No additional tools are required.
Are different tips compatible with this pipette?
The universal tip holder cone is designed for a wide range of tips. A compatibility list helps to select suitable tips for the desired volume ranges.
What are the advantages of the ergonomic shape?
The handle is designed to adapt to different hand sizes. Low operating forces and short lifting distances relieve strain on the muscles and make it easier to work for longer periods without fatigue.
Conclusion
This piston-operated pipette combines comprehensive ergonomics, uncomplicated one-handed operation and precise volume adjustment in a robust design. Users benefit from high chemical and UV resistance as well as a wide range of volume ranges for very different applications. The easy-grip volume adjustment guard ensures reliable results in every situation, while the easy adjustment and color coding make everyday work considerably easier. Last but not least, compliance with relevant standards guarantees consistently high measurement accuracy, making the device ideal for routine and research tasks in professional laboratories.
