Liquid Handling (LiHa) disposable tips

Carefully designed, produced and validated to ensure reliable performance using Liquid Handling (LiHa) Arms and Flexible Channel (FCA) Arms on Tecan platforms.

Available in a variety of tip volumes, with or without filters, and made of conductive polypropylene to allow capacitive liquid level detection. Available in three purity levels (Tecan Standard, Tecan Pure and Tecan Sterile) tailored towards specific applications.

Find out why it is important to use Tecan Tips on your Freedom EVO® and Fluent® instrument

All-round performance you can rely on

We fully automate our liquid handling tip manufacturing within a controlled environment, using state of the art production processes and integrated quality control procedures. For instance, during production each and every LiHa disposable tip undergoes inspection, checking all functional parts, so you can rely on consistent pipetting accuracy and precision.

Nested LiHa disposable tips for improved tip logistics

See how the Robotic Manipulator (RoMa) Arm removes an empty tip tray from a stack of nested LiHa disposable tips during an automated liquid handling workflow.

Disposable Transfer Tool for optimized nested LiHa disposable tip logistics

If you have no RoMa Arm, then watch how the disposable Transfer Tool picks up empty trays from a stack of nested LiHa disposable tips. This tool can be used with the Liquid LiHa, Air LiHa Arm and FCA.

Labware definitions

To ensure optimal performance of your instrument with revised consumable part numbers, we recommend downloading and installing the latest labware definitions.

Instructions:

  1. To download, simply select your instrument type and software.
  2. Important: Check the part numbers that can be used with the labware definition.
  3. Confirm the tip sizes that can be used with the labware definition
  4. Then click on the file name to download.
  5. Note: when importing the labware definition in your Software please ensure to select only the labware definition that you require

For guidance on how to import the ZEIA file into your Software, please find further instructions here: FluentControl™, EVOware®. For labware definition updates in FluentControl versions earlier than V3.6, additional information will be made available on this page or through your Tecan contact later this year.

If you encounter any issues, please contact your local support team.

For more information or further instructions, please refer to the following documents:

  1. How to update Tip Offset in EVOware®
