Thank you for choosing a Hanna Instruments product.

information for the correct use of the pipette. Please read it
carefully before using the pipette. If you need additional technical

Please examine this product carefully. Make sure that no
damage has occurred during shipment. If there is any
damage, notify your Dealer.
Each pipette is supplied complete with:
• Two tips
• Instruction Guide
• Rigid carrying case
Note: Keep all packing material until you did verify that the
pipette works correctly. Any defective item must be
returned in its original packing.
PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION
1. Use the pipette in a vertical position whenever possible.
2. Operate slowly and smoothly. Aspiration and dispensing should
been carried-out with the same speed.
3. The tip should be immersed in the sample liquid the minimum
necessary (2-4 mm). Greater depths may cause inaccurate
measures.
4. Change the tip whenever a different kind of sample is to be
aspired or when droplets remain on the inside wall of the tip
from the previous pipetting operation.
5. Work always with samples at room temperature.
1. Liquid should never enter the pipette shaft. To avoid this:
• never use pipette without a tip
• do not invert pipette upside down or lay it flat when there
is a liquid in the tip
• press and release the push button slowly and smoothly.
2. When pipetting concentrated acids or alkalis or corrosive
solutions, pay particular attention to avoid contact of the
liquid with the pipette shaft, or it could be seriously damaged.
Extensive contact with corrosive fumes may result in premature
ageing of internal components of the pipette.
3. After use, store the pipette in its case or in a clean safe
place.
PIPETTE MAINTENANCE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION

that needs to be precisely dosed.
The liquid is aspirated into deposable tips. The use of
