405 TS Washer

Overview:

The 405 TS Microplate Washer is #1 in life science research, known for its excellent performance and outstanding reliability.  The 405 TS has a unique set of features designed to efficiently, effectively wash cell-based assays, microsphere-based assays and ELISA, with outstanding results for every application.  The patented Verify™ technology automatically checks for manifold tube blockages before a wash cycle, and Ultrasonic Advantage™ automatically cleans any blocked manifold tubes. These functions save time and frustration, and ensure successful results.
 

Features:

Patented Verify™ clog detection technology and Ultrasonic Advantage™

 
Washer verifier

Verify™ technology, which runs an automated QC check for manifold tube blockage, and visually reports any failed wells. The patented Ultrasonic Advantage™ can then be used to automatically and thoroughly clean the aspirate and dispense manifolds.

High resolution, advanced touch screen user Interface

 

405 TS features high resolution touch screen user interface for intuitive and flexible programming of 96- and 384-well microplate wash protocols. The extensive onboard software seamlessly guides users through protocol development, instrument maintenance and operation.

Programmable residual volume

 
405 TS

The 405 TS onboard software makes it simple to leave the wells empty or with the exact amount of residual your assay needs. Using the dimensions of the selected plate, the software automatically sets the aspiration height to leave the user-specified volume.

Password protection

 

Protocol critical protocols from unintended changes using the convenient password protection feature in the 405 TS software. Protected protocols can be viewed and run, but not modified by unauthorized users.

USB flash drive ports for convenient file transfer and storage

 
405 TS thumb

Two USB ports on the 405 TS enable convenient file transfer, storage and operation.

 

Optimized for loosely adherent cell monolayers

 

The 405 TS can process sensitive cell-based assays with its angled dispense tubes and adjustable flow rates. The Dual-Action manifold and carrier offer X-Y-Z adjustment, perfect for optimizing plate positioning and residual removal for cell-based and other assays.
