The MW9600-WSHB is the wash buffer bottle assembly for the Accuris MW9600 SmartWasher 96 Microplate Washer — a complete bottle assembly with integrated liquid-level sensor that alerts the operator when wash buffer is running low. The MW9600 chassis ships configured with 2 wash bottles + 1 rinse bottle + 1 waste bottle as standard equipment per the brochure; the MW9600-WSHB is the replacement / spare SKU for facilities adding capacity, replacing damaged bottles, or maintaining spare-inventory for high-throughput operations.
Key Specifications

Compatibility & When to Order This SKU
Bottle pairing — MW9600 chassis only. Order this SKU when:
- Adding a third wash bottle — facilities running a 3-buffer wash protocol (e.g., wash buffer A, wash buffer B, rinse) may want to dedicate the standard rinse bottle slot to a third wash buffer and add a separate spare wash bottle assembly.
- Spare-inventory for multi-chassis MW9600 fleets — a damaged or contamination-suspect wash bottle can be swapped for a fresh assembly without taking the chassis offline for cleaning.
- Replacement — if the existing wash bottle is damaged, the integrated sensor has reached service life, or the bottle has accumulated buffer residue that resists routine cleaning.
- Buffer-line dedication — facilities that want a separate dedicated wash bottle per assay platform (to prevent cross-buffer contamination between assay protocols) order spare wash bottle assemblies per protocol.
MW9600 Bottle System Architecture
The MW9600 chassis ships with 4 bottle slots in standard configuration:
- 2 wash bottles — primary wash buffer reservoirs (this SKU type)
- 1 rinse bottle — primary rinse / DI water reservoir
- 1 waste bottle — wash effluent waste collection (MW9600-WSTB SKU)
All 4 bottles have liquid-level sensors that alert the operator when:
- Wash / rinse bottles are running low (refill alert)
- Waste bottle is approaching capacity (empty alert)
This sensor design eliminates the manual-check workflow common with older microplate-washer designs and supports walk-away operation during long wash protocols.
Ordering & Configuration
Bottle replenishment workflow. Wash buffer is operator-supplied and bottle volume is operator-loaded; the wash bottle assembly is the physical reservoir with sensor connections to the chassis, not a buffer reagent. Confirm at quote whether the order is for spare assembly inventory, replacement, or capacity addition.
Confirm at quote: chassis pairing (MW9600 in inventory), bottle quantity needed for workflow (1 spare for fleet rotation, multiple for buffer dedication, etc.), and lead time.
Warranty: Per Accuris standard warranty terms — confirm at quote.
