Agilent BioTek EL406 Microplate Washer Dispenser 406PSUB3 with Ultrasonic Advantage and Dual Syringe Pumps
Product Description
The Agilent BioTek EL406 Microplate Washer Dispenser 406PSUB3 is a versatile, high-precision laboratory instrument combining microplate washing and dispensing functions, optimized for biotechnology and molecular diagnostics workflows. It supports 96- and 384-well microplate formats, accommodating a broad range of assay applications including ELISA, cell-based assays, and PCR setup essential in bioprocessing and synthetic biology research.
Key technical features include:
- Dispensing Technology: Integrated 1 peristaltic pump plus 2 syringe pumps, enabling precise liquid handling with a dispensing volume range of 1 to 3000 µL (peristaltic pump) and 50 to 5000 µL (washer manifold); precision typically <3% CV.
- Dual-Action Manifold: 96-tube and optional 192-tube manifolds provide independent dispense and aspiration control for accurate, reproducible washing performance critical to reducing assay variability.
- Ultrasonic Advantage: Employs ultrasonic agitation to prevent clogging and ensure consistent dispenser performance, enhancing assay reliability in fluorescence analysis and plate-based screening.
- Selectable Wash Parameters: Features soaking, shaking, and vacuum filtration capabilities with automatic buffer switching (up to 4 buffers via optional valve module), supporting complex biomanufacturing protocols and magnetic bead assays.
- Software Integration: Compatible with LHC software for advanced method development and integration into laboratory automation systems.
- Compact Footprint: Designed for space-efficient use in biotechnology labs requiring reliable, automated microplate processing without compromising throughput.
The EL406's design supports critical applications across molecular biology, biomedical engineering, and clinical diagnostics, making it widely adopted in gene editing, molecular cloning workflows, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines. Precision dispensing and washing reduce edge effects and cross-contamination risks during plate coating, serial dilutions, and bead-based assays.
Additional benefits include modular manifold configurations, user-friendly interface favoring button control over touch screen, and service options such as Artel volume verification and on-site training. Thoroughly tested by expert technicians with preventive maintenance and stress testing guarantees consistent operation and minimal downtime.
This pre-owned model offers significant cost savings compared to new devices without compromising accuracy or functionality. It includes essential accessories: source and waste bottles, vacuum pump, tubing kit, power and communication cables, and can be upgraded with BioStack plate stackers for automated handling.
This EL406 system is essential for laboratories focusing on high-throughput microplate assays in biotechnology research, molecular diagnostics, and bioprocessing, delivering reproducible results with versatile washer-dispenser integration.
