PRODUCT INFORMATION
Automation should adapt to you. You shouldn’t have to adapt to your automation. This single-channel automated liquid handling platform with precise XYZ targeting allows the use of specialized plate types (carousel, collection tubes, cartridges, etc.) not compatible with other workstations. Utilizing dual pump pipetting module, the system can handle a broader range of volumes between 30nL to 1000µL. The VERSA™ 110 ensures that the only differences in your protocol will be increased throughput and precision.

VERSA™ 110 Sample Deck Configurations
What is the advantage of having a dual-syringe pump compared to the other VERSA™ systems?
A dual-syringe pump allows you to have the greatest accuracy in liquid handling across a wider range of volumes. For example, a 25μL syringe pump can be used to handle low volumes such as 1μL, and then have the ability to automatically switch over to a 1000μL syringe pump to eliminate the need for multi pipetting.
How many ReagentDrop channels are available?
Up to 5 pins (channels) can be installed in a VERSA™ 110 for bulk reagent tipless dispensing. The ReagentDrop is recommended for applications such as automated nucleic acid purification, automated serial dilution, automated normalization, simple vial filling, etc.
What measures are in place to prevent sample cross-contamination?
Using disposable tips, each VERSA™ series can avoid sample cross-contamination. Along with the tip-touch function, our user-friendly software VERSAware allows you to have access to control the air gap to eliminate the sample cross contamination when using our automated liquid handling systems.
Is liquid level sensing available?
Yes, the VERSA™ 110 automated liquid handling platform is equipped with liquid level sensing to detect the different layers of liquid present in specific applications, such as liquid extraction.
Is cooling or heating of plates/samples available?
The VERSA™ 110 automated liquid handling instrument can be equipped with a heater-cooler plate, which allows the user to define a temperature anywhere between 4 to 90 degrees Celsius. In addition, a Heater-shaker is also available to vortex samples whilst incubating samples anywhere between RT to 90 degrees Celsius.
