IKA PETTE vario single-channel pipette, variable 0.5–10 µl, 0020011211

Flexibility and precision in the microlitre range

The IKA PETTE vario 0.5–10 µl is the ideal solution for demanding applications in molecular biology, such as pipetting PCR master mixes or enzyme solutions. With a variable volume range of 0.5 to 10 µl and fine increments of 0.01 µl, it ensures maximum accuracy when dispensing valuable samples. The ergonomic design, including three interchangeable grips, allows it to be perfectly adapted to the user’s hand, effectively preventing muscle strain even during long pipetting runs.

Robust materials for long-lasting performance

Durability and resilience are at the heart of the design. The tip cone and piston are made of stainless steel and are additionally coated with a high-quality DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. This extremely hard surface provides reliable protection against chemical influences and mechanical abrasion. The housing, made from PPS and PVDF, is not only UV-resistant but also resistant to aggressive cleaning agents, making the pipette a robust companion for everyday laboratory use.

Maximum hygiene and easy maintenance

The IKA PETTE vario is uncompromisingly designed for sterile work: it is fully autoclavable at 121 °C without the need for prior disassembly. Cleaning is particularly simple and time-efficient thanks to the tool-free disassembly design. Calibration can also be carried out by the user independently and without additional tools, ensuring long-term compliance with the strict requirements of ISO 8655. An easy-to-read display ensures process reliability at all times.
