Introduction
A pipette controller, also known as a pipettor or pipette filler, is a laboratory instrument used to control the aspiration and dispensing of liquids with serological or volumetric pipettes, and it is used in biology, chemistry, clinical, and cell culture laboratories for accurate and convenient liquid handling. The pipette controller consists of a handle with a motor or a manual mechanism, a control button or lever for aspirating and dispensing, a connector for the pipette, and a filter to protect the instrument from contamination, and it is used with glass or plastic pipettes; in operation, the pipette is attached to the controller, the control is used to aspirate the liquid into the pipette, and the liquid is dispensed by adjusting the control, with the motorized models providing a smooth and precise control of the liquid volume, and the manual models using a thumb wheel or bulb for the aspiration; the pipette controller provides an accurate and convenient alternative to mouth pipetting, and it is available as electric motorized models and manual models, with features such as variable speed, a battery, and a filter. Pipette controllers are used in cell culture for transferring media and reagents, in molecular biology for dispensing solutions, in chemistry for measuring liquids, in clinical laboratories, in microbiology, and in many other applications, and they are used with pipettes of various volumes, from 1 milliliter to 100 milliliters. With their convenient and accurate liquid handling, pipette controllers are essential instruments for pipetting in laboratories.

FAQ
Q1: What scenarios is a controller used for?
A: It drives serological pipettes for controlled aspiration and dispensing in media preparation and cell culture, reducing mouth pipetting.
Q2: What standards does it comply with?
A: It follows electrical safety and related GB/T standards, with filters and speed verified. The relevant parameters are verified during final inspection before shipment, and compliance documentation or test reports can be provided on request for your quality records.
Q3: What is the warranty?
A: The controller carries a 12 to 24 month warranty covering the motor and battery. Filters are consumables. Damage from immersion or misuse is excluded.
Q4: Is it hard to operate?
A: Operation is simple after training: attach a pipette, control speed with buttons and filter. We provide a manual and guidance.
Q5: What is the lead time?
A: Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.
Q6: Is calibration required?
A: Routine calibration is not required for normal operation, as the unit is factory set and tested before delivery. We recommend a periodic functional check with a standard sample or the supplied reference, and keeping a simple verification record. Documented third-party calibration can be arranged if your quality system requires it.
Q7: Are consumables universal?
A: Filters are model-specific, while serological pipettes are standard. Ongoing cost includes filters.
Q8: Can it be customized?
A: Yes, several configurations are available. Options include battery life, speed settings and wall chargers. We can discuss further custom requirements, confirm feasibility and advise any effect on the schedule before the order is confirmed.
Q9: Is installation included?
A: No installation is required for this unit. It is ready to run after a simple power connection and the leveling steps shown in the manual. We supply a detailed operation guide and online setup videos, and on-site commissioning can be arranged separately if your facility requires it.
Q10: What pipettes are compatible?
A: It handles standard serological pipettes within the holder. It is not for non-standard pipettes, direct mouth pipetting, or incompatible liquids entering the controller.
