FOREACH SMTP4 100 μL air-displacement pipetting pump

Air Displacement Pipetting Pump for Small-Volume Sample Transfer

SMTP4-100 μL is an air displacement pipetting pump for small-volume sample transfer, with a nominal capacity of 100 μL. It can serve as a pipetting component in sample preparation equipment and automated analyzers, transferring samples from tubes into reaction tubes, sample cups or microplates.

The product uses disposable tips and supports automatic tip ejection. The integrator supplies drive electronics, positioning axes and process control. Specify a separate sensing arrangement if liquid-level, blockage or tip-status monitoring is required.

Typical Applications:

Small-volume sample transfer, Sample preparation, Disposable tips

Typical applications

SMTP4-100 μL is an air displacement pipetting pump for small-volume sample transfer, with a nominal capacity of 100 μL. It can serve as a pipetting component in sample preparation equipment and automated analyzers, transferring samples from tubes into reaction tubes, sample cups or microplates.

Sample preparation: small-volume sample transfer

Aspirate the target volume from a sample tube and use the positioning axes to transfer it to a reaction tube, sample cup or well. Coordinate immersion depth, aspiration and dispense speeds, delays and dispense position. Evaluate the volume actually delivered to the destination vessel.

Destination vessels: small-volume dispense positioning

Use the vessel opening, bottom geometry and tip length to define dispense height and withdrawal for tubes, sample cups and microplates. Check residual liquid and liquid carried on the tip exterior, and assess contact dispensing with the intended liquid.

Instrument integration: tip handling and axis motion

Match tip loading, pipetting and ejection paths to the tip part number, rack position and vessel layout. Automatic tip ejection still requires coordinated instrument motion. Confirm sealing, loading and ejection forces, and mechanical travel for the selected tips.

Application selection inputs

Provide minimum, routine and maximum working volumes, liquids, tip part numbers, vessels and target cycle time, then define drive and sensing arrangements. Select against the model's resolution and usable capacity and validate accuracy and repeatability under actual conditions. Drive resolution is not a minimum reliable transfer volume or an accuracy specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

100 μL is the nominal capacity of this configuration; 0.05 μL/step is its drive resolution. A drive increment is not a minimum reliable pipetting volume or a volume-error specification. Verify performance at minimum, routine and maximum working volumes with the intended tips, liquids and aspiration/dispense method.

Measure delivered volume, error and repeatability at the intended small volumes using the actual tips, liquids and motion settings. The SMTP4 performance table on datasheet page 15 is not separated by pump capacity. Its full set of volume data must not be treated as guaranteed SMTP4-100 μL performance; request results for the specific configuration and test conditions.

SMTP4 has a stepper motor and supports automatic tip ejection; the equipment integrator provides the drive electronics and process control. The current series comparison does not list SMTP2’s integrated communication, liquid level detection and drive control as standard SMTP4 features. Specify sensors, interfaces and control arrangements separately if level, blockage or tip-status feedback is needed.

The datasheet lists TECAN tips for the standard configuration and customization to customer requirements, but it does not identify every compatible tip part number. This is not blanket compatibility with all TECAN or other-brand tips. Confirm the specific part number, dimensions, sealing and loading/ejection motions, then validate pipetting with the actual liquid and instrument.

Distinguish liquid remaining inside the tip, liquid on its outside and liquid retained on the destination vessel wall. Check tip sealing, liquid properties, aspiration/dispense speeds, delays, dispense height and withdrawal motion. Contact dispensing or an extra blowout requires confirmation of available travel and host programming. Evaluate the volume actually delivered into the reaction mixture.
