11.1.2. Cleaning the Lower Part of a
Single Channel Pipette (every three
months)
If the pipette is in daily use, it is recommended to clean,
decontaminate, and grease it every three months.
NOTE: We recommend sending multichannel pipettes
to your local Sartorius service center for cleaning and
greasing.
11.2. Cleaning and Autoclaving
The Lower Part of Pipettes
Single-channel pipettes
The lower parts of the eLINE® single-channel pipettes
are autoclavable (NOTE: The 5000 µl model does not
have parts no. 2, 3, and 5). To clean, decontaminate or
autoclave the lower parts of the pipette follow these
steps:
Disassembly:
1. Remove the battery pack (1).
2. 10 µl, 120 µl, 300 µl, 1000 µl: Unscrew the tip
ejector collar (2) counter-clockwise to remove it.
5000 µl: Unscrew the white tip cone (4) counter-
clockwise to remove it. Release the black tip
ejector assembly from the tip cone by turning it
counter-clockwise and then pull it out. Remove
the tip cone filter if fitted and continue from
Step 4.
3. Unscrew the tip cone holder (3) counter-
clockwise and remove the tip cone holder (3), tip
cone (4) and spring (5). Remove the Safe-Cone
Filter if fitted.
4. Unscrew the exposed piston (6) counter-
clockwise and remove it.
Reassembly:
1. Screw the piston (6) clockwise into position.
2. 10 µl, 120 µl, 300 µl, 1000 µl: Place the spring (5)
around the piston.
