The waste is collected in the closed-system
waste container with liquid level monitoring
to prevent overflows.
The waste container with a volume of 10 litres
should preferably be placed below the level
of the instrument. The waste level sensor
has to be connected with the controller.
The AVS and its components are to be installed by a Hamilton service engineer.

The iSWAP (internal Swivel Arm Plate Handler) transports microplates, covers of
microplates, archive plates or filter plates used for the vacuum box to and from
positions on the deck of the Microlab STAR IVD. The plates can be placed in
landscape or portrait orientation and rotated 180 degrees. In addition, the iSWAP is
able to load and unload plates to and from a plate stacker on the left side of the
instrument outside the working area (with some restrictions, this can also be done on
the right side). Like Microlab STAR’s pipetting channels, iSWAP has a “travelling
height” of 145 mm above the deck (245 mm above the origin).
The iSWAP is mounted on the pipetting arm and parked below the cover of the
pipetting arm. In this position it does not affect the movement of the pipetting
channels.

iSWAP can be chosen by the customer as an ordering option, but can also be installed later
by a service technician at the customer’s request.
