What is the filter in Easypet made of?

The 0.2 µm and 0.45 µm filter are made of polypropylene (housing) and PTFE (membrane).

Can membrane filters with a pore width other than 0.45 µm be used in Easypet?

Yes, pore widths of 0.3 µm and 0.2 µm may also be used. This has only a minimal effect on aspirating and dispensing speeds. When purchasing, please note the shape of the filter connections; double-sided Male Luer Slip (MLS).

Is there a certificate regarding the filter used in the Easypet 3?

Yes, for the sterile 0.2 µm and sterile 0.45 µm membrane filter a general Quality Certificate conforming sterility of the filter is provided below the "Certificates" tab on the Easypet 3 online product page.

Is the Easypet filter hydrophobic?

Yes. The Easypet filter is made of PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) and is hydrophobic.

The pipette in the Easypet is leaking. What is the reason for this?

Please check that the pipette is pushed far enough into the adapter of Easypet. Also check that the adapter or the pipette is not damaged.

The pipette does not fit tightly onto Easypet. What might be the reason for this?

Please check that the adapter is not damaged in any way. The pipette might not be pushed far enough into the adapter.

What is a possible reason for reduced suction capacity of the Easypet?

Reduced suction capacity may be caused by a wetted membrane filter.

Is the Easypet autoclavable?

The nose cone and the adapters are autoclavable.

Is it possible to continue working with the power unit when the battery of Easypet is flat?

Yes. The device is even recharged during the pipetting process.

Which batteries are used in Easypet?

Lithium polymer batteries are used in Easypet.

How large is the capacity of the fully charged Easypet battery and how many dispensing cycles can be carried out?

A fully charged battery can be used for approximately 6 hours or for over 2000 cycles of aspiration and dispensing of a 25 mL pipette without using the pump. When using the pump approximately 650 cycles are possible.

How long is the lifetime of the Easypet batteries?

Up to 500 charging cycles can be carried out when charging is carried out according to instructions.

Can 60°C liquids be dispensed with Easypet?

Easypet can be used for liquids at this temperature, incl. its silicone adapter, and filter.

Which liquids should be regarded as critical for pipetting with Easypet?

Liquids which give off vapors that attack silicon, NBR, ABS (Acryl Nitrile-Butadene-Styrol-Copolymer), POM (Polyoxymethylene), or PVDF (Polyvinylidenfluoride).

What difference does Easypet make between "flow out "and "blow out"?

Flow out: press bottom button without activating the pump. Dispensing speed is regulated by varying the finger pressure. Blow out: push bottom button in completely. The pump switches on and the liquid is blown out.

How is the wall holder for Easypet fastened to the wall?

The wall holder has a Velcro strip that is pressed onto the wall after the protective film has been removed. The wall holder can be pulled off sideways from the Velcro.

Where is the serial number on Easypet?

The serial number is affixed to the lower backside of the handle of the Easypet 3.

I want to gently dispense the last drop without activating the pump. Is this possible?

No, the residual liquid has to be dispensed by using the blow out.

What are the LEDs at the back of the Easypet 3 used for?

The backlit LEDs show the battery status when you press either the aspiration or dispensing button. When all 3 LEDs light up, the battery is fully charged.

How do I know that the Easypet 3 is fully charged?

Immediately after the Easypet 3 has been fully charged, all 3 LEDs will light up for 30 sec. All LEDs then go out and will only light up when the aspiration or dispensing button is pressed.

How can I adjust the speed for aspiration and dispensing?

With the Easypet 3, speed adjustment is regulated simply with the tips of your fingers: The stronger you press the button, the faster the speed for aspirating or dispensing.

I would like to park the Easypet 3 with an attached pipette. How can I do that?

You can use the shelf stand that is provided in the pack. By attaching it to the back of the Easypet 3, you can park the Easypet 3 without contaminating the attached pipette. Note that the shelf stand is not provided in the U.S..

I lost the lid for the battery compartment. Can I get a replacement?

Yes, you can order a new battery compartment lid: Order No. 4430 602.000 (international and North America Order No.).
