Thermo Scientific Matrix Equalizer Pipette
Multichannel Electronic Pipette with Expandable, Equal Tip Spacing
Jump to Ordering Guide
What could once only be accomplished through repetitive motions with a single channel pipette can now be accomplished with the electronic pipette with equal, expandable tip spacing. This instant boost in productivity is the result of equal tip spacing that expands or contracts with the simple adjustment of a slide rod making the pipette able to perform sample transfers between virtually any tube rack, microplate or horizontal gel box. The pipette allows plate-to-plate transfers between 96- and 384-well microplates, as well as the ability to load gels 8-or 12-channels at a time directly from a microplate or tube rack.
Benefits
  • Adjustable tip spacing allows you to transfer multiple samples between any tube rack, microplate and/or horizontal gel box
  • Ergonomic design reduced risk of repetitive stress injuries (RSI)
  • Step-based programming makes it logical, intuitive and easy to create programs
  • On-board memory saves six programs (up to 40 steps each) allows you to spend more time pipetting and less time programming
  • Large volume capacity—1250 µl per tip capacity allows you to fill an entire microplate with up to 100 µl per well from a single aspiration
  • Five volume ranges and two spacing ranges available allows for the flexibility to pipette between many types of labware

Expandable Tip Spacing
The Matrix Equalizer pipette's tips can be spaced anywhere from 9 mm (96-well microplates) to 14.15 mm (12-13 mm tube rack spacing or 48-well plates) in increments of 0.1 mm. The distance between tips is always equal— simply set the desired spacing anywhere on the scale and pull or push the rod to expand or contract the tips. This can be done while the tips are empty or full, enabling the quick and easy transfer of multiple samples at once between labware with different configurations.

Tip Spacing Down to 4.5 mm
The Matrix Equalizer 384 pipette features the same unique tip spacing mechanism but allows you to set the tip spacing down to 4.5 mm—perfect for multichannel dispensing from 96-well plates into 384-well plates or for multi-lane sample loading of agarose gels. The 8-channel expands to 14.15 mm, the 12-channel to 9 mm.

Ergonomic Design
Light and well-balanced, the pipette design keeps your hand close to the pipetting surface and incorporates a highly leveraged tip ejector that utilizes two or three fingers (and not the thumb).

Light Tip Application and Ejection
Designed in conjunction with Thermo Scientific Matrix pipette tips, ensure superior tip fit with minimal application/ejection forces.

Easy-To-Use, Easy-To-Learn, Step-Based Programming
Allows you to automate anything you would do with a manual multichannel pipette. For more information, download the Matrix Electronic Pipettes Overview (627KB pdf).

The Matrix Equalizer pipette also includes all the other great features of Electronic Multichannel Pipettes.
