Which parts of the epMotion 96 Flex can be autoclaved?

The TipHolder and the 384-well positioning aid of the 2-position slider are autoclavable at 121 °C and a positive pressure of 100kPa (autoclave for at least 20 min).

Can the epMotion 96 Flex be operated in a biological safety cabinet?

The design of the epMotion 96 Flex makes it ideal for the usage in a biosafety cabinet. The footprint of the device is small enough to be placed inside the cabinet without taking up too much space that is needed for other items. For more information on using the epMotion 96 Flex for aseptic handling of cells read Eppendorf White Paper 99 Advanced Cell Handling: Seamless 96-well pipetting in a single step.

Are there any recommendations for handling non-aqueous liquids with the epMotion 96 Flex?

Tips and tricks for the handling of challenging liquids such as viscous, dense, volatile, and protein-rich reagents are summarized in Eppendorf White Paper 100 How to handle challenging liquids with the epMotion 96 Flex.

Is it possible to use 10 µL epT.I.P.S. motion reloads with the epMotion 96 Flex?

Depending on the installed dispensing head the epMotion 96 Flex can be operated with 50 µL, 300 µL, and 1000 µL epT.I.P.S. motion. The 10 µL epT.I.P.S. motion are not compatible.

Is the TipHolder for epMotion 96 Flex compatible with the big epMotion 507x?

No, the TipHolders are not interchangeable. The TipHolder of the big epMotion 507x models cannot be used with epMotion 96 Flex (and vice versa).

Is there any information about chemical resistance for the epMotion 96 Flex?

Information about chemical resistance can be found on the product page in the download section on the Eppendorf website on eppendorf.com.

Why should I have my ep Motion serviced at regular intervals?

To ensure the optimum performance and precision of your device. This also enables the early detection of any defects which can then be corrected easily. Only precise and accurate devices ensure successful liquid transfers!

How often does my ep Motion need to be serviced?

The need for service depends on how intensively the device is used and if you are working in a regulated field with special service demands. However, we recommend to have it serviced at least once a year.

What do you need to look out for before carrying out a service?

The device needs to be decontaminated first. The device must be freely accessible and all samples removed from the device.

What types of service programs are available for ep Motion ?

The available service programs can be found under the respective instrument in the Service & Support / Maintenance and Certification Services section.

Why do the dispensing tools of my ep Motion need to be calibrated?

The dispensing tools are precision devices. Servicing and calibration at regular intervals ensure a consistently high precision of the results. We provide documentation in support for GLP to assist you.

How often do dispensing tools need to be calibrated?

As part of his test equipment monitoring process, the operator determines the frequency of the calibration as well as the quantity of the testing volume and the number of measurements for each testing volume. This may vary depending on how often the device is used, by how many operators it is used, the aggressivity of the liquids used and the maximum permissible errors defined by the operator. The dispensing tools of your device will display after 200,000 runs that an inspection is recommended. However, there should be at least 1 calibration per year.

How much are the different ep Motion service programs?

The costs depend on the model and service that is performed. Please contact your local Eppendorf Service.

Who is my local service contact?

Please contact your local Eppendorf Service Team. You find the contact data on our homepage ( www.eppendorf.com ) or in the information materials.

What is IQ or OQ and what do I need them for?

Installation and operational qualification; the IQ documents that the device has been delivered and installed correctly. The OQ checks the correct functioning of a device. IQ/OQ ensure that your quality management requirements are met and that your device operates properly and in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.

How often does the OQ need to be carried out for an ep Motion ?

The company is responsible for technical checks of devices. Eppendorf recommends regular device qualifications depending on the intensity of use, however, they should be carried out at least once a year.

Does a service carried out by Eppendorf meet the GMP requirement?

Eppendorf offers global certification services which comply with FDA 21 CFR Part 11, EU GMP Annex 11, GLP and GAMP ® 5 to ensure a consistent, standardized operation. We also enable an uncomplicated validation from the implementation to the shutdown by providing support for the installation und operational qualifications (IQ/OQ) of the device and with the software. The entire qualification is documented in detail and the operator’s personnel is qualified and certified in intensive training sessions.

Which consumables should be replaced at regular intervals?

All three XYZ flex cables should be replaced at least once per year if the machine is used daily.

What types of training or online training do you offer to enable me to improve my skills?

Please visit the Eppendorf webpage about the Eppendorf Training Center ( https://www.eppendorf.com/training or contact your local Eppendorf Service for further information and a quotation.

Why can the dispending tool be calibrated without the user unit ?

The ep Motion dispensing tool is calibrated with the help of the ep Motion Tool Holder. The electronic parameter to control the tools of the ep Motion are always the same in all ep Motion units. Therefore all ep Motion dispensing tool can be calibrated on different units than the user unit. The only exceptions are the TS10 and TM10 dispensing tool. They can only be calibrated with units controlled by epBlue Version 40.5.
