The dials are colored either black or red to indicate the
position of the decimal point, depending on the model
(see examples).

The volume is set by turning
the thumbwheel or the push­button. The push-button
makes it easier and quicker
to set volumes, especially
when wearing gloves. The
thumbwheel may be turned
using only one hand to slowly
reach the required setting.

To obtain maximum accuracy when setting the volume,
proceed as follows:

 when decreasing the volume setting, slowly reach

the required setting, making sure not to overshoot
the mark.

 when increasing the volume setting, pass the required

value by 1/3 of a turn and then slowly decrease to reach
the volume, making sure not to overshoot the mark.

5  PIPETTING

For optimum performance, use of PIPETMAN

DIAMOND
Tips with your PIPETMAN Neo is strongly recommended.
These Tips, made from pure polypropylene have the
Gilson logo engraved on their collar, ensuring that you
have a genuine Gilson product. Plastic tips are for a single
application – they must not be cleaned for reuse.

PIPETMAN Neo can also be used with the main tip brands.

Fitting the tips

Single channel models:

To t a new PIPETMAN DIAMOND Tip, push the tip-holder
into the tip using a slight twisting motion to ensure a
firm, airtight seal.

For the P2N and P10N models, a dual-position adapter (plastic)
is required to fit DL10 tips (long tips) or D10 tips (short tips). The
metallic rod of the tip-ejector is shaped so that the adapter may
be clipped to it in either of two positions.

Push-button

Thumbwheeel

P2N and P10N models are delivered
with the adapter

in place, positioned in
the longer slot, ready to use DL10 tips.
When D10 tips (which are shorter) are
used, the adapter must be repositioned
in the shorter slot as follows:

Pull the adapter down from the
metallic rod.

Turn the adapter through 180°C.

Refit the adapter so that the end
of the metallic rod engages the
shorter slot of the adapter.

Multichannel models:

PIPETMAN DIAMOND Tip:
TIPACK™ and TOWERPACK™ – ROCKY RACK™

PIPETMAN DIAMOND Tips are best fitted from the pat­ented ROCKY RACK available only in our TIPACKS and
TOWER PACKS.

ROCKY RACK is the dome-shaped part of the pack that
contains the tips. ROCKY RACK makes it easy to securely
fit the tips to a multichannel pipette, ensuring an airtight
seal on all channels without the need to use undue pres­sure or to touch the tips.

The patented ROCKYRACK system available on
TOWERPACK and TIPACK makes it extremely easy
to t tips on a multichannel pipette. Tips will not fall
o nor will they have to be manually positioned.

Pre-rinse the tips

Some liquids (e.g. protein-containing solutions and
organic solvents) can leave a lm of liquid on the inside
wall of the tip ; pre-rinse the tip to minimize any errors
that may be related to this phenomenon.

Pre-rinsing consists of aspirating the rst volume of liquid
and then dispensing it back into the same vessel (or to
waste). Subsequent volumes that you pipette will have
levels of accuracy and precision within specications.

8

First stop

Second stop

Aspirate

Press the push-button to the first stop (this
corresponds to the set volume of liquid).

Hold the pipette vertically and immerse the tip in the
liquid (see immersion depth table, page 10). Release
the push-button slowly and smoothly (to top posi-
tion) to aspirate the set volume of liquid. Wait one
second (time depends on model, see table) ; then
withdraw the pipette-tip from the liquid. You may
wipe any droplets away from the outside of the tip
using a medical wipe, however if you do so take care
to avoid touching the tip’s orifice.

Dispense

Place the end of the tip against the inside wall of the
recipient vessel (at an angle of 10° to 40°).

Press the push-button slowly and smoothly to the
rst stop.

Wait for at least a second, then press the push-button
to the second stop to expel any residual liquid from
the tip. Keep the push-button pressed fully down and
(while removing the pipette) draw the tip along the
inside surface of the vessel.

9

Release the push-button, smoothly. Eject the tip by
pressing rmly on the tip-ejector button.

6  GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR GOOD PIPETTING

Make sure that you op­erate the push-button
slowly and smoothly.

When aspirating, keep
the tip at a constant
depth below the sur­face of the liquid (refer
to the table).

Change the tip before
aspirating a dierent
liquid, sample, or reagent.

Change the tip if a droplet remains at the end of the
tip from the previous pipetting operation.

Each new tip should be pre-rinsed with the liquid
to be pipetted.

Liquid should never enter the tip-holder; to prevent
this:

- press and release the push-button slowly and
smoothly,

- never turn the pipette upside down,

- never lay the pipette on its side when there is liquid
in the tip.

If you use the same tip with a higher volume, pre­rinse the tip.

For volatile solvents you should saturate the air­cushion of your pipette by aspirating and dispensing
the solvent repeatedly before aspirating the sample.

When the temperature of the liquid is dierent from
the ambient temperature, pre-rinse the tip several
times before use.

You may remove the tip-ejector (see Chapter 11 -
Maintenance) to aspirate from very narrow tubes.

After pipetting acids or other corrosive liquids
that emit vapors, remove the tip-holder, rinse the

piston, O-ring and seal with distilled water. For
the model P1000N, by using a specic tip holder
equipped with a lter, you can increase the life­time of the piston (see Chapter 7 - Accessories).

Do not pipette liquids having temperatures above
70°C or below 4 °C. The pipette can be used between
+ 4 °C and + 40 °C but the specifications may vary
according to the temperature (refer to the ISO 8655-2
standard for conditions of use).

7  ACCESSORIES

To make pipetting more comfortable and more secure,
Gilson has developed several accessories:

To avoid the possibility of liquid running back into
the pipette, store the pipette vertically.

10  LEAK TEST

This test may be performed at any time to check that
the pipette does not leak, especially after performing a
maintenance or decontamination procedure. If a pipette
fails this test, replace the O-ring and seal. After making
sure that the pipette is correctly reassembled, repeat this
test (not applicable to multichannel pipettes).

For the P2N to P200N, 8x20, 12x20, 8x200 and 12x200
models:

Fit a PIPETMAN DIAMOND Tip.

Set the pipette to the maximum volume given in the
specifications, and pre-rinse.

Aspirate the set volume from a beaker of distilled
water.

Maintain the pipette in the vertical position and wait
for 20 seconds.

If a water droplet appears at the end of the tip there
is a leak.

If you see no droplet, re-immerse the tip below the
surface of water.

13

The water level inside the tip should remain constant;
if the level goes down there is a leak.

For the P1000N model:

Fit a PIPETMAN DIAMOND tip.

Set the pipette to the maximum volume given in
the specifications.

Aspirate the set volume from a beaker of distilled
water.

Maintain the pipette in the vertical position and wait
for 20 seconds.

If a water droplet appears at the end of the tip, there
is a leak.

11  MAINTENANCE

Routine maintenance will help keep your pipette in
good condition, ensuring a continued high level of
performance. Maintenance is limited to cleaning or au­toclaving the parts specified under Chapter 12 - Cleaning
and Decontamination or to replacing the push-button,
connecting nut, tip-ejector, tip-holder, seal and O-ring.

PIPETMAN Neo P2N and P10N should not be
disassembled, so you may only replace the push-button,

tip-ejector, dual position tip-ejector and its adapter. With
these pipettes if the tip-holder is damaged, the piston
may also be damaged.

For multichannel models, the lower part should not be
disassembled: only the push-button, the connecting nut

and the tip-ejector can be replaced.

After replacing any parts you should verify
the performance of your pipette following the
verification procedure available on the Gilson
website (www.gilson.com). If the pipette needs
to be readjusted, please contact your local Gilson
authorized Service Center.
