62 | 405 TS Getting Started Guide
Example:
24.6 mm = 96-well Corning microplate + 96-well flat magnet + plate carrier
- 22.7 mm = 96-well Corning microplate and plate carrier
1.9 mm = Magnet Height Offset
Manifold Stop Screw Adjustment Kit
For Magnetic Bead Assays and 384-Well PCRPlate Processing
To successfully perform these assays, 405 TS Select and HT models may need to
adjust the height of the manifold stop screw. The adjustment kit, PN 1170011, is
shipped with instruments with a dual manifold.
The manifold stop screw prevents the
bottom manifold from touching the
microplate during operation. Sometimes
the screw installed at the factory is too tall
or too short to permit desired processing:
l a taller screw is needed to support a
magnet under the plate for magnetic
bead assays
l a shorter screw is needed to support
processing of 384-well PCR plates that
have a very low profile
Two stop screws can reside in the plate
carrier, making it easier to swap between
them.
Microplate Carrier
Kit Contents:
l Screw height measurement tool (jig)
l Two stop screws with adjustable nuts
and lock washer
l 5/32" Allen (hex) wrench
l Two wrenches - 5/16" and 3/8"
Remove the carrier to perform most of these steps but always perform the
measurement steps with the plate carrier installed correctly on the 405 TS.
