When to Pick the 100–1000 µL Head
Pick the MP9600-1000PH when:
- Larger-volume sample workflows — DNA / RNA / protein extraction with eluate volumes 100–1000 µL
- Larger sample transfers — buffer dispensing, sample dilution at production volumes
- Cell-culture sample prep with larger working volumes
Stay with MP9600-200PH ($8,354) for lower-volume workflows at qPCR / plate-prep scale — saves $1,037.
Bundle both heads for full volume-range coverage on the same chassis.
Frequently Asked Questions
What volume range does the MP9600-1000PH cover? 100–1000 µL — the upper end of the AutoMATE volume-range coverage.
How does it compare to the 5–200 µL head? The MP9600-1000PH lists at $9,391 versus $8,354 for the 5–200 µL MP9600-200PH — a $1,037 step-up. Bundle both heads for full volume-range coverage on the same chassis.
What chassis does this head fit? The AutoMATE Automated Pipetting Workstation (MP9600 chassis family); confirm the exact chassis SKU pairing with Benchmark Scientific technical support.
Does it use different tips than the 5–200 µL head? Typically yes — 100–1000 µL heads use larger tip formats than 5–200 µL heads. Confirm tip-format compatibility at order.
