Eppendorf epMotion TM 50-8 Dispensing Tool 50 ul 8 Channel

Eppendorf epMotion TM 50-8 8-Channel Dispensing Tool – 1 to 50 microliter Dynamic Range, Autoclavable, Thermal-Isolated Drive, RFID-Enabled (MPN: 960001061 / 960001044 / 5280000010)

Used; excellent condition; 60-day warranty.

The Eppendorf epMotion TM 50-8 (cataloged under MPNs 960001044, 960001061, 5280000010, or 5011001009) is a high-precision, 8-channel automated dispensing tool engineered for accurate low-volume liquid handling on Eppendorf epMotion 5070, 5073, 5075, and 5075t automated pipetting workstations. Optimized for an ultra-fine volume dynamic range from 1 microliter to 50 microliters, this multichannel dispensing head utilizes a contactless, air-displacement liquid path to deliver exceptional accuracy, linearity, and channel-to-channel consistency across 96-well and 384-well microplate formats. Outfitted with an integrated RFID memory chip, the tool automatically communicates its serial number, factory calibration parameters, and service interval data to the epMotion software upon placement. Featuring thermally isolated drive motors and a fully autoclavable lower housing, the TM 50-8 is the ideal tool for low-input enzymatic assays, qPCR setup, Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) library preparation, and high-density serial dilutions.

Technical Performance and Engineering Design

• Low-Volume Precision (1 to 50 microliters): Specifically calibrated for low-volume transfers, providing high accuracy for delicate assay setups, master mix additions, and low-input PCR/qPCR reactions.

• Thermal-Isolated Drive Motors: Internal mechanical drives are thermally decoupled from the tip cone manifold, preventing motor heat generation from affecting volatile liquids or introducing volume expansion errors during long automated runs.

• Automatic RFID Recognition & Calibration Tracking: Embedded smart chip transmits unique tool parameters directly to the epMotion workstation for hassle-free plug-and-play operation and complete GLP/GMP traceability.

• Autoclavable Lower Dispensing Section: The entire lower tip-cone assembly easily detaches for steam autoclaving at 121 C for 20 minutes, ensuring strict contamination control when working with sensitive nucleic acid or cell culture samples.
