VolumeCheck100
Standalone Volume Detection for 96 well labware

VolumeCheck100/50/384
Main Benefits
• Software interface provides visual reference
as to sample well volumes.
• Provides output file to track and validate
sample plate processing.
• Key method to quickly check wells for sample
volume prior to liquid handling operations.
• Detection of empty wells in a well plate
• Measurement of sample volumes in well
plate to evaluate if sufficient amount of
materials was provided
• Measurement of aspiration of critical
hardware parts
• Calibration of liquid handler and highlight of
specific patterns in the dispense

VolumeCheck
• General purpose volume inspection system
• Utilizes one non-contact sensor
• Output data is the distance measured from sensor
to sample level
Technology Overview
• Measures the distance between
the sensor and the sample
meniscus with a non-contact
sensor.
• For Example: 15mm = 350µL
