7.4.3. Dead volume
Dead volume is needed to avoid contamination of samples. It is represented by a certain volume of
air. Dead volume is influenced by the length of aspiration tube. It is recommended to program dead
volume in such a way that the end of the aspirated sample remains approximately 2 cm on top of
the cell tip (see drawing).
Upon selecting (F3) Dead Volume, you will get a choice of 6 volumes.
200 µl is the factory pre-programmed volume:
7.5.
