Description
A flexible agar petri dish filler for small batches which automatically fills and stacks small batches of petri plates. This petri dish filling system is easy to operate and clean! Among its highlights, BioTool’s PS20 media filler fills 20 dishes directly into its PetriRack in less than two minutes. There is no need for manual stacking or any other manual operation. The filled dishes are safely stacked in the PetriRack and can be transported, chilled or incubated in the rack. Additionally, its fully autoclavable rack means that the dishes can be taken from the rack continuously. New rack = new batch! With this compact laboratory solution, BioTool has responded to frequent customer requests for a more compact and yet flexible filling unit. It is ideal for the production of small, special-purpose agar batches.
Despite the compact size, this smaller filling system solution does not disappoint. It is a fully automatic, very precise Petri dish filling system. Nor is it in any way deficient to larger models relative to pump delivery, operator prompting or software options. The PS20 provides ease of use applications that include dish feeding, single dosing, stacking, and dish discharging. Perhaps the chief value of the PS20 petri dish filling system is that it delivers precisely automated operations to enhance the productivity of your laboratory and potentially to reduce overhead.
