CyBi®-SELMA is a bench-top semi-automatic pipettor which is fast, precise and robust. With 96 or 384 disposable tips, all 96 and 384-well microplate formats can be filled in seconds. All pipetting movements are performed by highly precise and reliable motors which always guarantee excellent and constant results.

CyBi®-SELMA is amazingly easy to use via a modern touch screen. Automatic tip tightening avoids laborious adjustments and preloaded tip racks guarantee rapid execution within seconds. Custom-racked tip magazines enable the omission of individual columns and thus, give the user more options to create dispense patterns specific to their assay requirements. All manual operating tasks such as tip change and plate change are shown on the display. Hence nothing gets in the way of precise liquid handling.

Microplates of varying heights and well dimensions can be handled by CyBi®-SELMA as the pipetting head position can be adjusted via a simple dial. Optimal immersion depth of the tips can be adjusted in the same way. Any adjustments such as dispense height, voume and pipetting speed are memorized, retrievable and changeable for regular use anytime.
