The EP0601151 is the 5 – 200 µL EP-series single-channel electronic pipette — the motorized precision tool for labs running repetitive liquid handling at the volumes manual pipettes can't deliver consistently. High-performance motor assures high precision and consistency, eliminating the operator-fatigue variance and plunger-speed variability that breaks reproducibility on long pipetting sessions. Large-capacity two-battery configuration with easy-to-remove external lithium-ion battery for extended operation. Optimized display screen reduces repeat operations. Adjustable aspirate and dispense speeds. Wide choice of pipetting modes — pipette, dispense, mix, multi-aspirate, repeat-dispense, and reverse pipetting. Self-calibration for routine maintenance. Compact, lightweight, ergonomic body fits in either hand for fatigue-free extended use. ISO 8655 calibrated with individual factory test certificate.
Why Electronic Pipetting Eliminates the Hidden Workflow Tax of Manual Pipettes
Manual pipettes work — but they exact a hidden tax on reproducibility and ergonomics that compounds across long pipetting sessions. The variance sources are well-documented in calibration literature: operator plunger-speed variability, finger fatigue across hundreds of strokes, micro-changes in plunger blow-out timing, and the cumulative thumb-and-index-finger strain that accumulates across a busy day. By the 200th transfer, the operator is dispensing measurably differently than they were on the 1st. That accumulated drift is the hidden source of inconsistent qPCR Cq values, ELISA standard-curve scatter, and IC50 outliers that get blamed on the assay when the real culprit is the pipette.
The EP0601151 flips the math entirely. The motor takes plunger-speed variance to zero. The repeat-dispense mode turns 96 sequential aspirations into a single aspirate-then-dispense-12-times routine — 10× faster and far more consistent than manual technique. The multi-aspirate mode lets the operator pre-load multiple volumes for sequential dispensing across a complex protocol. The reverse pipetting mode handles viscous and foaming reagents (glycerol, surfactants, BSA solutions) more accurately than any manual pipette can. The optimized display screen eliminates the repeat-operation menu-fumbling that turns simple dilutions into multi-step button-presses on cheaper electronic pipettes. Add the large-capacity dual-battery configuration with easy-to-remove external lithium-ion pack for extended runtime, the self-calibration capability for routine maintenance, and the ISO 8655 individual factory test certificate shipped with each unit, and the EP-series stops being the workflow tax and becomes the workflow enabler.
5 – 200 µL · 1 µL Increment
5–200 µL wide-range coverage — handles the entire ELISA / cell-culture mid-volume range with one pipette. Eliminates the pipette swap-outs that slow down 96-well plate workflows.
Multi-Mode Motorized
High-performance motor with adjustable aspirate and dispense speeds. Wide choice of pipetting modes — pipette, dispense, mix, multi-aspirate, repeat-dispense, reverse pipetting. The motor takes operator-variance to zero across long pipetting sessions.
Dual-Battery Lithium-Ion
Large-capacity two-battery configuration enables longer operation time. Easy-to-remove external lithium-ion battery — swap a fresh battery in seconds when one drains during long sessions, no charging-cradle delays.
ISO 8655 + Self-Calibration
Individually calibrated to ISO 8655 standards with individual factory test certificate shipped with each unit. Self-calibration capability for routine maintenance. Optimized display screen reduces repeat operations.
"Electronic precision in the 5 – 200 µL range. The motor takes operator-variance to zero across the long pipetting sessions where qPCR / ELISA / IC50 reproducibility is won or lost. ISO 8655 calibrated, individual test certificate."

Ideal Applications
ELISA Plate Workflows
ELISA antibody and substrate dispensing at 50–200 µL/well across 96-well plates — where electronic dispense + repeat-dispense modes turn 96 manual aspirations into a 12-stroke routine.
Cell Culture & Drug Screening
Cell culture media additions to 96-well plates, drug treatment dispensing, transfection reagent additions — applications where the 5–200 µL range covers most cell biology core workflows.
Protein Assays & Buffer Prep
BCA / Bradford protein assay dispensing, working solution preparation, buffer aliquoting — workflows where the wide 5–200 µL range eliminates pipette swap-outs between volumes.
