Product Description

Brand BioRad

Model PW 40

Capacity 96 Wells

CAT No 85499

Application Immunology

The PW 40 Microplate Washer is powerful, compact and programmable 8-channel and 2 x 8-channel microplate washer/aspirator, with built-in vacuum and dispensing pumps. It has been designed for use with 96-well flat, U- or V-bottom plates. Dispensing and aspiration head heights are user- adjustable, with vertical and horizontal needle positioning in the well (0.1 mm accuracy). Liquid level detectors on wash and waste bottles and vacuum sensors provide a consistent washing/aspiration process.

Automated Precision in Plate Washing

Engineered for reliability, the BioRad PW 40 Microplate Washer automates the challenging aspects of plate washing, reducing manual error and enhancing assay consistency. Its programmable functions allow users to customize cycles, soak time, and aspiration protocols, adapting easily to diverse laboratory applications.

Adaptable to Various Plate Formats

This washer efficiently accommodates flat, round, and U-bottom plates, thanks to its versatile 8- or 12-way interchangeable manifold. Designed to support 96-well and 384-well plates, it ensures thorough washing regardless of plate design.

Safety and Ease of Use

The BioRad PW 40 prioritizes operator safety with built-in overflow and leak sensors, a safety door interlock, and automated rinse routines. Its compact, lightweight form makes it easy to integrate into busy laboratory environments, while the digital display and intuitive controls simplify operation.

FAQ's of BioRad PW 40 Microplate Washer:

Q: How do I select between an 8-way or 12-way manifold for my plate washing needs?

A: The BioRad PW 40 features interchangeable 8-way and 12-way manifolds, allowing you to choose the appropriate manifold based on your plate format and throughput requirements. Switching between them is straightforward and tool-free, ensuring flexibility for both 96-well and 384-well plates.

Q: What advantages does programmable soak time offer during the washing process?

A: Programmable soak time, ranging from 1 to 999 seconds, enables you to optimize the washing process for different assay protocols. This flexibility improves reagent interaction with samples, ensuring consistent and thorough washing every time.

Q: When should the automated rinse function be used, and what benefits does it provide?

A: The automated rinse function is recommended between wash cycles to prevent cross-contamination and residue buildup. This feature maintains the integrity of your assays and extends the lifespan of the washer's internal components.

Q: Where can the BioRad PW 40 Microplate Washer be installed, and is it portable?

A: Designed as a compact bench-top model, the PW 40 can be conveniently placed on standard laboratory benches. Its lightweight build (approx. 8.5 kg) allows for easy relocation within the lab as needed. However, wall mounting is not supported.

Q: What plate types and sizes are compatible with this washer?

A: The washer is compatible with flat, round, and U-bottom microplates, supporting both 96-well and 384-well formats. This versatility ensures it can handle a wide range of diagnostic and research applications.

Q: How does the device ensure user safety during operation?

A: Safety features include overflow and leak sensors, a safety door interlock, and a real-time operation display to monitor the washing process, ensuring safe usage and protection from potential hazards in the lab environment.

Q: What are the operational benefits of adjustable aspiration height and programmable water pressure?

A: Adjustable aspiration height allows precise removal of liquids per protocol, minimizing residual volume and optimizing assay results. Programmable water pressure ensures effective, gentle washing tailored to sensitive samples or robust cleaning as required.
