Tecan Fluent 480 Automated Liquid Handler with Span-8 Air FCA Pipetting Arm
Product Description
The Tecan Fluent 480 Liquid Handler equipped with the Span-8 Air FCA arm is an advanced automated liquid handling workstation designed for precise, flexible, and high-throughput dispensing tasks essential in molecular diagnostics, genomics, proteomics, and drug discovery research. This system features an air displacement pipetting technology with disposable tips, capable of handling volumes up to 1000 µL per channel, providing contamination-free, reproducible transfers ideal for bioprocessing and synthetic biology workflows.
Key technical specifications and features include:
- Span-8 Air FCA pipetting arm with air displacement technology ensuring precise liquid transfer across eight channels simultaneously.
- Full deck capacity supporting multiple labware formats including 6-position Diti Tip nests, 5-position 7 mm nests, and 4-position 61 mm nests, enabling integration of various peripheral devices.
- Equipped with FluentControl software version 2.6 for intuitive automation programming and workflow customization.
- Disposable tip usage minimizes risk of cross-contamination, critical for molecular cloning workflows, NGS library preparation, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
- Optional customizations available: robotic gripper arms, MCA dispensing adapters, additional deck carriers, heating/cooling/shaking modules, barcode reading stations, magnetic and vacuum extraction, and onboard thermal cycler by Inheco for integrated PCR/qPCR setup automation.
- Proven reliability through preventive maintenance and thorough stress testing prior to shipment, ensuring consistent aspiration accuracy and dispensing efficiency.
- Designed for applications including high-throughput screening (HTS), next-generation sequencing (NGS) sample prep, ELISA and immunoassays, cell culture automation, serial dilutions, and normalization tasks.
This automated platform supports seamless workflow automation, reducing manual intervention and increasing experimental reproducibility, making it an essential tool for biotechnology laboratories focusing on gene editing, synthetic biology research, and molecular diagnostic assay development. The system’s scalability allows use from small-scale laboratory setups to large-scale biomanufacturing pipelines.
The Tecan Fluent 480 comes with a 120-day US warranty (extendable to 1 year), optional on-site setup, Artel volume verification services, and method development consulting. It is shipped fully insured and securely packaged to ensure arrival in optimal condition for immediate integration into advanced biomedical engineering and clinical diagnostics workflows.
