General Information
Corning’s Stripettor™ Plus pipetting controller is ergonomic, light weight, and offers
precise control of aspiration and dispensing. Designed for use with Corning’s Stripette®
seriological pipets, the pipetting controller is also compatible with most glass and plastic
serological pipets from 1 mL to 100 mL. Speed range is adjustable via a control wheel
on the back of the instrument and aspirating and dispensing can be finely controlled by
the pressure sensitive buttons. The Stripettor Plus pipetting controller comes equipped
with both blow out and gravity modes. The unit operates on a rechargeable Lithium
battery. A battery indicator light lets the user know when it’s time to recharge; the
Stripettor Plus pipetting controller can be used while charging.
