This pipette requires periodic calibration per ISO 8655-2 and sterilization of only the lower half. Tip compatibility and volume accuracy must be verified before use to maintain performance.
- Sterilization Limitation: Only the lower half of the pipette may be autoclaved; the upper assembly must not be subjected to steam sterilization.
- Calibration Requirement: User calibration must follow ISO 8655-2 using the specified test volumes to ensure systematic and random error remain within stated tolerances.
- Tip Compatibility: Use only tips designed for the 30-300 µL volume range with a secure press-fit seal to prevent leakage and inaccuracy.
- Volume Setting Precision: The 1 µL increment mechanism requires careful adjustment to avoid overshoot or undershoot of the target volume.
What is the accuracy and precision of the dPette-S pipette at the lower end of its 30–300 µL range?
At the tested volume of 30 µL, the systematic error is ±4.50 µL (±15.00%) and the random error is ±1.20 µL (±4.00%). The specification does not provide error values for volumes above 30 µL, so performance across the full range must be inferred from this single data point.
Which calibration standard applies to the dPette-S pipette and how does it affect user calibration?
The pipette is calibrated under ISO 8655-2, which serves as a user calibration reference. This means that end users are expected to verify or adjust calibration periodically, and the technical specifications provide the systematic and random error at 30 µL for that purpose.
Can the dPette-S pipette be fully autoclaved for sterilization?
Only the lower half of the pipette is autoclavable; the electronic upper half is not sterilizable by autoclaving. This partial sterilization capability requires careful handling to avoid damaging the electronic components while maintaining aseptic workflow for the tip-holding parts.
The dPette-S Single-channel 30-300 µL Pipette (model AF-LH-DPETTE-S-30-300-µL) is an electronic pipette offering 1 µL increment adjustment and lower-half autoclavability, but the systematic error of ±15% at the 30 µL test volume and the inability to autoclave the upper half should be considered for precise low-volume applications and complete sterilization.
Positive
- Lower half autoclavable for sterility: The lower half of the pipette can be autoclaved, allowing decontamination between uses without compromising the entire instrument.
- Fine 1 µL increment adjustment: The 1 µL increment enables precise volume selection within the 30-300 µL range, suitable for routine liquid handling tasks requiring repeatability.
Trade-offs
- Limited autoclavable portion: Only the lower half is autoclavable; the upper assembly cannot be sterilized by autoclaving, requiring alternative decontamination methods for that part.
- Systematic error up to ±15% at low end: At the 30 µL test volume, the systematic error is ±4.50 µL (±15.00%), which may affect accuracy for methods requiring tighter tolerance at the lower end of the range.
