FUNCTIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF USE

The ErgoOne E is a microprocessor-controlled,
®
battery-operated piston-stroke pipette which uses
the air-displacement principle for the pipetting of
aqueous solutions with an average density and
viscosity.
Limitations of use
The ErgoOne E is intended for the pipetting of
®
liquids within the following limitations:
– Temperature of both the instrument and solution
should be between 15 °C and 40 °C (59 °F and
104 °F) for the instrument and the reagent. Con-
sult the manufacturer for use in temperatures
outside of this range.
– Vapor pressure up to 500 mbar
– Viscosity: 260 mPa s (260 cps)

Operating exclusions

The user has to ensure the compatibility of the
instrument with the intended application.
Never use the instrument for pipetting liquids
that react adversely with polypropylene (PP: shaft
and tips), polycarbonate/polybutyleneterephthalate
(PC/PBT: casing). Avoid reactive vapors due to the
danger of corrosion.
The handle is not autoclavable.

DISPOSAL

The adjoining symbol means that storage batteries and electronic devices
must be disposed of separately from household waste (mixed municipal
waste) at the end of their service life.
- According to the Directive 2002/96/EC of the European Par-
liament and of the Council on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) of 27 January 2003, electronic equipment
requires disposal according to the relevant national disposal
regulations.
- Batteries contain substances that can have harmful effects on the environ-
ment and human health. Therefore according to the Directive 2006/66/
EC of the European Parliament and the Council on Waste Batteries of 6
September 2006 batteries require disposal according to the relevant national
disposal regulations. Dispose of batteries only when completely discharged.
WARNING! Do not short-circuit the battery to discharge it!
When the instrument is used properly, the sample
only comes into contact with the tip and not with
the ErgoOne E.

Operating Limitations
Viscous and highly adhesive liquids may impair
volumetric accuracy. Volumetric accuracy may also
be impaired when pipetting liquids that differ from
ambient temperature by more than ± 5 °C / 41 °F.
