DISCOVERY PRO pipettes operate utilizing the air
cushion
principle, i.e. the aspirated liquid has no contact
with the shaft or plunger of the pipette. Liquid is aspirated
into disposable tips put on the pipette.
Pipettes are equipped with a four-digit counter displaying
the set volume, and the aspirated volume is set by
means of the adjustment knob (fig. 1B). The pipette
design allows the user to lock the volume setting.

1.3. TECHNICAL PARAMETERS
DISCOVERY PRO pipettes are high quality laboratory
instruments, which provide the highest measurement
accuracy and precision.
Accuracy errors and repeatability of liquid volume mea-
surements depend on quality of the applied tips. The
errors provided, have been determined with the use of
HTL tips by means of gravimetric method based on mini-
mum 10 samples of distilled water with temperature of
20°±1°C under the EN ISO 8655 standard.
Only application of HTL tips guarantees accuracy of
measurements at the level shown in the table above.
The pipette design enables the user to perform calibration
process according to the rules presented in section 5.
2. OPERATION
2.1. SETTING THE VOLUME
Setting the volume is performed by the volume adjust-
ment knob (fig. 1B).

1.2. WORK SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Used symbols:
WARNING! Risk of injury
CAUTION: Potential damage to the device or pipetting
errors
Long-lasting and faultless working of the pipette
depends to a large extent on its operation. Read the
pipette operating instructions carefully and comply with
the principles included.
CAUTION:
•Pipette is designed to work with the tips only. Do not
aspirate liquids without tips attached. Aspirated liquid
should not get into the pipette because this may dam-
age it.
•Use only the pipette with the tips attached.
•One time use of a tip guarantees safety and eliminates
possible contamination of the aspirated liquid.
•
Keep the pipette clean; do not cleanse it with chemically
aggressive substances (e.g. acetone).
•Do not hold the pipette horizontally if there is liquid in
the tip.
•Only use pipettes in accordance with the manufacturer
instruction to ensure the proper parameters of pipettes.
•In case of improper operation of the pipette, clean the
pipette carefully following the instructions given or
send it to the service representative.
WARNING!
•Follow the laboratory work safety regulations.
•Exercise extreme caution while pipetting chemically
aggressive substances. Use the protective equipment,
glasses and gloves.
•Never direct the pipette with the tips attached towards
yourself or anyone else when there is liquid in it.
•Use only the spare parts and accessories recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.

with which you rotate the adjustment knob (fig. 1B), so
as not to exceed the value (fig. 3).
•
If the required volume is higher than the volume set on
the counter it is necessary to increase indications of the
counter to the value which exceeds the required volume
by rotating the bottom drum by about 1/3 of its circum-
ference. Then, by slowly rotating the adjustment knob
(fig. 1B), reduce the setting to the required value (fig. 3).
After setting the required volume, the knob (fig. 1B) should
be moved downward to lock the set volume (fig. 2C).
CAUTION: The calibration switch (fig. 1E) which is above
the counter should remain in the lower position during
operation. Otherwise, each change of capacity will result in
decalibration of the pipette.
2.2. PREPARATION FOR OPERATION
Place the tips on the shafts of the pipette. Holding the
pipette vertically, press it against the tips in the rack box,
until the shafts retreat about 1.5 mm into the multichannel
module. The suspension system of the shafts ensures
even and tight sealing of the tips.
The twisting motion does not have to be performed.
See Table 1 for the appropriate tips designed for the given
pipette model.
CAUTION:
- It is recommended to use the tips recommended by the
manufacturer, as only those tips will ensure accurate
and repeatable liquid measurements.
-
Never aspirate liquid into a pipette without tips attached.
3. PIPETTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Observing the following recommendations will ensure
accuracy and repeatability of liquid sampling.
•While operating DISCOVERY PRO pipette the volume
setting should be locked - the adjustment knob in its
lower position (fig. 2C).
•Operate the pipette pushbutton slowly and smoothly
when liquid aspiring and dispensing.
•Pipette is equipped with a switch of counter’s mode of
operation – calibration switch (fig. 1E). This switch
should be shifted only for the time of calibrating the
pipette (upper position marked with the "CAL" symbol).
ENGLISH
The range of aspirated volume is displayed on the
counter cap (fig. 1G). The volume is displayed by the
counter and consists of four digits, which should be read
from top to bottom. The digits on the lower drum consti-
tute minimum graduation for the particular model. Value
of the minimum graduation (increment) is presented in
Table 1.
Volume can be changed after choosing the upper posi-
tion of the knob (fig. 2A and 2B).
After setting the desired volume, the knob (fig. 1B) should
be locked by pushing into the lower position (fig. 2C).
Examples of counter indications:
Counter indications above the horizontal indicators shown
volume in [μl].
To achieve maximum accuracy, the required volume
should be set from higher volume by reducing indica-
tions of the counter.
Example of correct volume setting:
•If the required volume is lower than
the volume set on the counter it is
necessary to reduce indications of
the counter to the required value.
Before achieving the required value it
is necessary to reduce the speed

•While holding the pipette in a vertical position, tips
should be immersed into the aspirated liquid to the
depth of 2 to 4 mm, and flushed once by drawing
a dose of liquid and dispensing it out with slow and
steady movement. The tips may aspirate air if immersed
to a depth lower than recommended or if the pipetting
pushbutton is released quickly,
•To aspirate liquid release the pipetting pushbutton
smoothly (fig. 4B),
•Wait for about 1 second before withdrawing the tips
from the aspirated sample, fig. 4.
WARNING! Do not touch the used tips.
4.2 DISPENSING LIQUIDS
•While holding the pipette slightly inclined from 10 to 40°
off the vertical, place the tips orifice against the inside
wall of the receiving vessel.
•Then, press the pipetting pushbutton smoothly to the
first stop, dispensing the liquid (fig. 4C).
•After about one second press the pipetting pushbutton
to the final stop, blowing out the remaining liquid from
the tips (fig. 4D).
•
Holding the pushbutton depressed remove the pipette,
drawing it against the vessel inner wall.
•Release the pipetting pushbutton to its starting position
(fig. 4E) and eject the tips by pressing the tip ejector
button (fig. 4F).
CAUTION: Replace the tips with a new one whenever a
different liquid is to be pipetted.
4.3 PRE-RINSING
When pipetting liquids of viscosity higher or surface
tension lower than those of water (e.g. serum or organic
solvents) a film of liquid is formed on the inside wall
of the pipetting tips. The film can create an error. Since
the film remains relatively constant in successive pipetting
operations with the same tips, this error can be avoided
by forming the film before the first pipetting. This is done
by performing a full pipetting cycle of a liquid into the
same vessel. After such a procedure, the film of liquid is
already formed in the tips and ensures better accuracy
and repeatability of successive pipetting operations.
ENGLISH
•The depth of tips immersion in the aspirated liquid
should be around 2-4 mm.
•
While operating, the pipette should be held in a vertical
position.
• New tips should be pre-rinsed.
• The tips should be replaced with new ones if:
- a different type of liquid is handled;
- a different liquid volume is dispensed;
- visible droplets of liquid remain in them.
•Pipetted liquid should not enter the pipette shafts. To
ensure this:
- press and release the pipetting pushbutton slowly
and smoothly;
- do not put the pipette away if there is any liquid in the
tips;
- do not invert the pipette;
- do not set and aspirate volumes exceeding nominal
values.
•Before aspirating liquid of temperature that differs from
ambient temperature, it is recommended to rinse the
tips several times with the aspirated liquid.

Table 3 shows the values of the [mg/μl] conversion rates
for distilled water or another liquid of comparable density.
CAUTION: The pipetting procedure should be conducted
in accordance with the rules described in sections 3 and 4.
Recalibration procedure:
•
Set the dose volume depending on the pipetted volume
according to Table 4.
•Perform 5 aspirations, weigh each one and calculate
the average value of the aspirations.
•
Calculate average aspirated volume in [μl] by multiplying
the average aspiration amount [mg] by the distilled
water density coefficient [μl/mg], which depends on
temperature and pressure (Table 3).
• If the average aspirated volume exceeds the permissi-
ble values, pipette recalibration should be conducted.
ENGLISH
4.4 ASPIRATING HIGH DENSITY LIQUIDS
The accuracy errors provided in Table 1 have been
determined using distilled water. When pipetting liquids
whose properties (density, viscosity, surface tension)
differ from the properties of water, it may be necessary to
compensate for volume settings.
CAUTION: Aspiration differences can be avoided if the
pipetting operation is conducted slowly, so that the liquid
can slowly adjust to the changing pressure. Wait for
about 2 seconds after each aspirating and dispensing,
without changing the position of the pipette.
If the above procedure does not provide accurate
results, pipette recalibration is required according to sec-
tion 5.
After calibration, it is recommended to record recalibration
and the adjustment value, which will facilitate return cali-
bration to the standard liquid.
5. RECALIBRATION
DISCOVERY PRO pipettes are calibrated by gravimetric
method,
using HTL tips and distilled water, at the tem-
perature 20°±1°C, according to EN ISO 8655 standard.
It is recommended to conduct periodic inspection of the
pipette operation, with the interval between inspections
being dependent on the type of load (aspirated liquids)
and other conditions (load intensity and autoclave sterili-
zation, replacement of subassemblies) in which the
pipette is used.
The pipette recalibration procedure should be carried
out
if during the pipette operation you find that the accuracy
error (the difference between the real aspirated volume
and the preset volume) exceeds the permissible value
given in Table 1.
Aspiration efficiency of the pipette is determined e.g. by:
applied tips, properties of pipetted liquid (density, visco-
sity) and operation conditions (ambient temperature,
pressure).
Checking the pipette parameters
To determine accuracy error of the pipette, the following
requirements must be fulfilled:
•The ambient temperature of the pipette, tips and the
test liquid (typically distilled water) should be within the
range of 20-25°C and stabilized during weighing within
the range ±0.5°C,

ABC
Fig. 5
PRO
1211
CAUTION: Before using cleaning agents other than
those recommended by the manufacturer, check the
compatibility charts and consider chemical resistance of
the following plastics: PP, PC, POM, PA, PPS, PVDF
used to produce the pipette parts.
The pipette can be sterilized in the autoclave at the tem-
perature of 121°C for 20 minutes. After sterilization, the
pipette should be dried and cooled down to room tem-
perature. It is recommended to sterilize the pipettes in
autoclave with initial vacuum and drying cycle.
CAUTION:
- Sterilization in other conditions may cause the damage
of the pipette,
- Set the volume adjustment knob in its upper (unlocked)
position before sterilization.
Repeatability of obtained results does not change if the
pipette is operated properly and the autoclaving proce-
dure is conducted appropriately. As there can be a slight
change in the dosing accuracy it is recommended:
- To check calibration of the pipette after 1st, 3rd and 5th
autoclaving procedures, and every 10 autoclaving
cycles during further operation of the pipette.
The pipettes are UV resistant which was confirmed by
our tests. The recommended distance from the radiation
source to exposed element should be not less than
50 cm. Prolonged and very intense UV exposure can
cause de-coloration of pipette parts, without affecting
its performance.
7. TROUBLESHOOTING
If you notice an improper pipette operation, identify the
cause and eliminate the fault. To do this, follow the
instruction in the sequence provided. Replacement of
parts should be required only occasionally, and should
not occur under normal pipette use.
ENGLISH
Pipette recalibration consists in setting the real value
obtained during weighing on the counter. To do so, the
following should be conducted:
•Remove the cap (fig. 1D) using the calibration key
(fig. 5A),
•Set the calibration switch (fig. 1E) in its upper position
(fig. 5A),
•Insert the calibration key into the ejector orifice (fig. 1C)
and place it in the calibration screw of the counter
(fig. 5B),
•Turn the key so as the volume indicated by the counter
is equal to the average calculated volume.
•
Remove the calibration key and set the calibration switch
in its lower position (fig. 5C), thus going to the pipetting
mode,
•Place the cap of the ejector pushbutton (fig. 5C).
After conducted the calibration procedure it is recom-
mended to record recalibration.
CAUTION: Before calibration, the volume adjustment
knob should be blocked. If the knob is shifted after
switching the pipette on the calibration mode ("CAL"),
calibration of the pipette will be changed without a visible
change in settings of the counter.
6. MAINTENANCE
The pipette requires periodic maintenance, depending
on the applications performed and intensity of use. The
subassemblies subject to action of aggressive solution
vapors, such as shafts elements, should be regularly
inspected and cleaned.
External surfaces of the handgrip, knob and pushbuttons
may be cleaned with a tissue dipped in isopropyl alcohol.
