Calibration system for an electronically monitored mechanical pipette

摘要

The present invention relates to a calibration system for an electronically monitored mechanical pipette. The calibration system is used to calibrate an electronic volume monitoring system which includes a transducer assembly and an electronics assembly which monitors a volume delivery adjustment mechanism of the pipette. The calibration system includes either a calibration mapping technique for determining the proper fluid volume delivery setting, or alternatively, an algorithmic technique. The calibration method further includes the ability to calibrate the pipette at a specific fluid volume delivery setting without modifying any parameters of the calibration software.
