TEMPEST® is a non-contact, multipurpose dispenser. Enabling you to dispense as many as 12 different reagents simultaneously by utilizing 96 independently controlled outputs. Dispense any volume, of any reagent, into any well.
Broad Range of Applications
High Throughput Screening (HTS)
Assay Development and Design of Experiment (DoE)
Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA)
Polymerase Chain-reaction (PCR) Workflows - Real-time and Digital
Biochemical assay development and screening
Cell Culture and Bead-Based Assays
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) - Library Preparation
Benefits:
Precise - Non-contact microdiaphragm technology uses positive displacement, ensuring high accuracy and precision across a broad range of reagent types, including cells and beads.
Low Dead-Volume - Non-recoverable dead volume as low as 48 μL per chip.
Flexible - TEMPEST supports all SBS plate types, can easily be integrated with other robotic automation, and has an optional plate stackers and barcode reader. For lower through-put needs, see our MANTIS® liquid dispenser.
Fast - Dispense 200 nL to 96-well plate in just 3 seconds and 1 μL to 384-well plate in just 5 seconds.
Biosafety Cabinet Compatible: With its compact dimensions (555 mm x 309.67 mm x 266.56 mm), the TEMPEST can be used in various biosafety cabinets to accommodate workflows that require this level of safety.
State-of-the-art Dispensing Technology
At the core of the TEMPEST is a microfluidic design that can dispense discrete volumes of liquid with incredible precision across a wide range of sample types and viscosities.
