The 3-in-1 microplate washer for ELISA assays, magnetic beads and cells
Its outstanding control systems set new standards for plate washing, with options including an online process control manifold that monitors all overflow-wash steps, and a liquid level detection system to monitor filling levels in wash buffer and waste bottles online.
Based on extensive testing the HydroFlex provides a unique proof of quality documented in an MTTF-record (mean time to first failure record) over more than 40,000 plates, typically corresponding to several years of successful operation.
The HydroFlex 3-in-1 plate washer is easily operated as a stand-alone instrument with its integrated keypad, or by using the intuitive HydroControl™ software.
It fulfills user administration requirements, including electronic records and signatures, and has been designed to meet the 21 CFR part 11 regulations. Additionally the HydroFlex for ELISA washing has been designed to meet the IVD 98/79/EC directive for Europe.
