The disassembly process for pipettes (also called multichannel pipettes) varies depending on the brand and model, but can usually be done by following these general steps. The following steps take some common pipettes as examples, but please note that you should read the instructions of the specific product in detail before actual operation to ensure correct and safe disassembly.
1. Preparation 1. Turn off the power: If the pipette is electric or requires power, please turn off all power first. 2. Place it stably: Place the pipette on a stable table to ensure that it will not slip or tip over during the disassembly process. 3. Prepare tools: Prepare the tools required for disassembly, such as screwdrivers (possibly Phillips or slotted screwdrivers), wrenches, etc.
2. Disassembly steps 1. Disassemble the sleeve: press and hold the release button on the pipette (different brands and models may differ, please refer to the instructions). Pull out the lower half of the sleeve. 2. Separate the upper and lower parts: According to the English prompts on the pipette or the instructions in the manual, gently push or rotate the upper part upward to separate the upper and lower parts of the pipette. 3. Disassemble the internal components: After separating the upper and lower parts, you can see the internal components of the pipette, such as springs, pistons, etc. Use a tool such as a screwdriver to gently pry or twist as needed to remove these components. Be careful to avoid damaging precision components. 4. Disassemble other parts: If the pipette has additional parts, such as O-rings, suction tips, etc., they also need to be disassembled according to the instructions in the manual. Pay special attention to consumables such as O-rings, which need to be replaced in time if they are severely worn.
3. Notes 1. Marking and recording: During the disassembly process, if possible, mark or record the location and connection method of each component so that reassembly can proceed smoothly. 2. Protect precision components: Pay special attention to precision components in the pipette, such as surface tension sensors, etc. to avoid damage during disassembly. 3. Hazardous substances: If the gun pipette will come into contact with harmful chemicals (such as liquids stored in storage bottles) during the disassembly process, please be sure to take protective measures to avoid direct contact.
If you need to reassemble the pipette after disassembly, please follow the instructions in the manual or the reverse order of the disassembly steps. Make sure that all parts are installed correctly and check that the pipette functions and performs properly. Please note that the above steps are for reference only and do not apply to all brands and models of pipettes. In actual operation, be sure to read the instructions of the specific product in detail and follow the instructions in the instructions for disassembly and reassembly.
