Acura® manual micropipettes – premium working comfort

Whether conducting delicate research or handling routine applications, every detail of the Acura^® manual pipette line has been designed with the user in mind. From the precise placement of the instrument in the hand to the smoothest activation mechanisms, the Acura^® manual pipettes are engineered to enhance working comfort while minimizing hand fatigue, allowing users to maintain focus and perform tasks with accuracy and ease throughout extended periods of use.

The Acura^® manual pipette’s ergonomic design ensures that they fit comfortably in every hand, whether the user is wearing gloves or not. The instrument's shape is carefully crafted to provide a natural grip and hold. Together with the light weight of the pipette, this is particularly important for performing long pipetting series and routine laboratory tests, as it helps reduce stress on the hand and wrist, making the pipetting process much more comfortable. The pipette’s finger rest is optimally placed to maintain the instrument’s position during pipetting, which ensures that the user does not have to exert unnecessary pressure to hold the pipette steady.

Another feature that enhances usability is the smooth and precise volume adjustments with a simple twist of the push button. The Acura^® manual pipette is equipped with finely machined click-stops that provide tactile feedback and allow for rapid adjustment without any unwanted volume alteration. Additionally, the display window is located on the front of the pipette, allowing users to easily view and verify the set volume throughout the pipetting process.

The Acura^® manual pipette's plunger mechanism is designed to offer smooth operation with reduced friction. This is achieved by soft springs and a tightness ring with PTFE sleeve. The pipette also features a large surface ejector button that requires minimal pressure to activate. For ease of use, the Justip™ shaft height adjustment system allows for compatibility with a wide range of tips to tightly fit the nozzle. This proves to be essential where laboratories have limited options to select their own pipette tips (i.e. central purchase).

The Swift-set user calibration system – with integrated key and locking mechanism – simplifies and streamlines the calibration process. This system is easy and precise, while also complying with international standards and recommendations. The calibration switch is covered by a seal sticker as safety protection. Though it can be easily removed when needed, the switch protection seal is autoclaving resistant.

The Acura^® manual pipettes are available in a range of models, including micro-, macro- and multichannel versions, ensuring that there is a solution for every pipetting need. Each instrument is assigned a unique serial number and passes strict performance control attested by an individual QC certificate. Paired with Qualitix^® pipette tips, the instrument line offers exceptional performance results, making them a reliable choice for any laboratory. Acura^® manual pipettes come with a three-year warranty.
