ALab™ Toppette Mechanical Pipette
Product Detail
ALab™ Toppette — a mechanical pipette in adjustable single-channel, 8-channel, 12-channel and fixed volume versions: light weight, ergonomic, low force design with a digital display, covering 0.1 µL to 10 mL.
The TopPette mechanical pipettes are light weight, ergonomic and low force in design, with a digital display that clearly reads the volume setting. The pipettes cover a volume range of 0.1 µL to 10 mL and are easy to calibrate and maintain with the tool supplied; the design helps avoid repetitive strain injuries. They are calibrated in accordance with ISO8655 and each pipette is supplied with an individual test certificate; the lower section can be autoclaved. The multi-channel TopPette is available in 8 and 12 channel versions for the standard 96-well plate, with a dispensing head that rotates for optimum pipetting convenience, individual piston and tip cone assemblies that allow easy repair and maintenance, a compound material tip cone design that allows visual seal verification, and compatibility with universal style pipette tips. A pipette with an on/off switch and cable is also shown. The specification tables below list the volume range, increment, test volume, systematic error and random error of the single-channel, 8-channel, 12-channel and fixed volume pipettes.

Frequently asked questions
Which configurations are available?
Adjustable single-channel (thirteen ranges, 0.1–2.5 to 2000–10000 µL), 8-channel and 12-channel adjustable (four ranges each, 0.5–10 to 50–300 µL) and fixed volume (5 to 5000 µL) pipettes.
Can the TopPette be autoclaved?
The lower section can be autoclaved.
Are the pipettes calibrated?
Yes. They are calibrated in accordance with ISO8655 and each pipette is supplied with an individual test certificate. They are easy to calibrate and maintain with the tool supplied.
What are the multi-channel pipettes designed for?
8 and 12 channel pipettes are available for the standard 96-well plate. The dispensing head rotates for optimum pipetting convenience, and the pipettes can be used with universal style pipette tips.
How are the tip cones designed?
Individual piston and tip cone assemblies allow easy repair and maintenance, and the compound material tip cone design allows visual seal verification.
What is the pipette with switch?
Pipettes can be stopped with an on/off switch and cable. This can be used with coagulation analyzers or any other instruments that require precise timing.
What are the error limits of the 0.5–10 µL single-channel range?
Increment 0.1 µL. At 10, 5 and 1 µL test volume the systematic error is ±0.1, ±0.075 and ±0.025 µL (±1.00, ±1.50 and ±2.50 %) and the random error ±0.08, ±0.075 and ±0.015 µL (±0.80, ±1.50 and ±1.50 %).
Which SKU belongs to which configuration?
Each channel configuration, fixed volume and volume range has its own SKU; see the order codes table.
