The pipette mounts on the OT-2R feature a new mechanism to more easily level multi-channel pipettes. Read More

8-Channel pipettes are especially sensitive to tilt and must be leveled flat during the pipette attachment process. An improperly attached or unleveled 8-Channel pipette can affect the reliability of tip pickup and ejection, evenness of aspiration and dispensation, and accuracy of calibration. Read More

This article covers how to adjust the height at which pipettes aspirate and dispense in both Python API and Protocol Designer protocols. Read More

This article outlines compatibility considerations between GEN1 and GEN2 pipettes for use with OT-One and OT-2 robots. Read More

Normally, when you calibrate your pipettes, each pipette automatically taps five tip probe switches hidden under the OT-2’s trash bin. The pipette lowers a safe distance from each switch, then slowly moves towards the switch until it taps it. On some OT-2s, the pipette can lower… Read More

Every pipette has a unique serial number located on the back of the physical instrument and in the Opentrons App if it’s currently attached. Read More

Refer to the information below to determine the generation of your pipette for use with the OT-One or OT-2 robot. Read More

This article provides step-by-step instructions on detaching a pipette from your robot within the Opentrons App. Read More

Opentrons pipettes are designed and tested to handle a wide range of aqueous solutions common to biochemistry. Read More

Checkit Go is an innovative testing system specifically designed to quantitatively assess the accuracy of multi-channel pipettes on liquid handling robots. By effectively measuring the accuracy of various pipette models, this system helps identify any potential volume delivery errors. Read More
