Product overview

The Hach TenSette plus is an electronically assisted pipette for a wide range of liquid handling

operations. Use the Hach TenSette plus with original Hach pipette tips (Item no. BBP068). Thanks to

4 English

the electronic motor and electronic control, pipetting is easy and comfortable, yet still fast and

accurate. It operates on the air displacement principle (i.e., an air interface) and uses detachable,

disposable tips, which are easy to remove with a soft touch tip ejector.

The adjustable, index finger-operated pipetting trigger uses natural hand movement. The Hach

TenSette plus provides many functions that are very practical for daily use in laboratory work, such

as forward, reverse and repetitive pipetting, stepper and diluting modes.

The adjusted delivery volume is clearly indicated in the LCD display on top of the handle. The long

lasting lithium ion battery is always charged with rapid charge technique.

All pipettes are factory calibrated. A Pipette Inspection Report, which covers calibration conditions

and results, is delivered with the pipette.

Product components

Make sure that all components have been received. If any items are missing or damaged, contact the

manufacturer or a sales representative immediately.

Installation

CAUTION

Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks described in this section of the

document.

Connect to power

WARNING

Explosion and fire hazard. Battery substitution is not permitted. Use only batteries that are supplied by

the instrument manufacturer.

WARNING

Fire and explosion hazard. Lithium batteries may get hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury if

exposed to abuse conditions.

N O T I C E

Use only the original Hach TenSette plus charger and battery.

The pipette battery must be charged before initial use. You can use the pipette while the charger is

connected. The charging time is typically less than one hour. An indicator in the LCD display shows

the charge level of the battery. When the indicator shows an empty battery, pipetting is not possible,

and the pipette must be charged again.

1. Connect the lead of charger to the socket on the back of the pipette.

2. Connect the charger to an AC wall socket.

Note: If the battery is completely empty, it may take a few minutes before the pipette will turn on.

Adjust the trigger position

The index finger-operated trigger, which activates the piston movement, can be adjusted by rotating

it 60 degrees in both directions from the center position. Usually right-handed operators turn it left

(counter-clockwise) to get the best possible position for the thumb to eject the tip. Refer to Figure 1.

Figure 1 Adjust the trigger position

1 Trigger 2 Trigger and finger rest adjustable

Tip ejection

To help eliminate the risk of contamination, the pipette is fitted with a tip ejector system. The tip

ejector system consists of a soft-touch tip ejector with a specially designed gearing mechanism.

Refer to Figure 2 on page 7.

To release the tip, point the pipette at a suitable waste receptacle and press the tip ejector with your

thumb.
