Agilent Bravo Automated Liquid Handling Platform Data Sheet

The Agilent Bravo Automated Liquid Handling Platform provides unparalleled versatility and precision in a compact footprint. This platform is the fastest and most versatile small footprint liquid handling system available. Its space-saving nine plate-position footprint can fit inside a standard laminar flow hood, enabling automated liquid handling for cell-based assays or hazardous reagent handling. For hoods with short internal height, the Bravo SRT Platform is three inches (7.62 cm) shorter, giving the extra clearance you need. The Bravo Platform utilizes the proven high-accuracy pipette heads of Agilent’s Vertical Pipetting Station for dispensing from 100 nL to 200 µ L in 96-, 384-, and 1536-well formats. Additionally, it can access a single column, row, or well of any of these microplate types utilizing the standard 96- and 384-channel heads. With seven different easy-change head types and numerous platepad options, it can be fully customized to meet the needs of a wide range of assays. The unique, open design of the Bravo Platform permits access from all sides for simple integration with other devices and unencumbered standalone use. The Bravo Platform is powered by the proven Agilent VWorks Automation Control software, whose outstanding dynamic scheduling, easy-to-use interface, and innovative error recover technology allows complete control that is easy for all levels of operators.
