PlateWeigh Volume Verification
PlateWeigh ensures that your liquid handling steps are always accurate and precise. Our laboratory scale is ideal for use with our Prime automated liquid handler or third-party liquid handlers.
Liquid Handling Volume Verification
PlateWeigh delivers flexible, automation-ready volume verification to ensure process safety in workflows that include automated liquid handlers.
Precision Automated Weighing
PlateWeigh delivers highly accurate, reproducible weighing results that verify liquid handling performance and quality in your workflows. Its fully enclosed chamber protects the sensitive weigh cell from disturbance for consistent measurements every time.
Fast, Reliable Performance
With ultra-fast measurement times and immediate output, PlateWeigh provides rapid confirmation of liquid handling operation, minimizing bottlenecks and keeping workflows efficient.
Seamless Integration
PlateWeigh works as a standalone device or integrates smoothly with HighRes automation systems like Prime and Nucleus. It’s also accessible via Ethernet communications and Cellario workflow control for unified scheduling and data flow.
Quality Control and Development
Use PlateWeigh to verify performance during liquid class characterization, quality control checks, or method transitions. Its precise results help ensure confidence in your automated liquid handling steps.

PlateWeigh uses gravimetric analysis to determine the accuracy and precision of an automated liquid handler’s dispensing performance.
PlateWeigh can accommodate virtually any ANSI/SLAS compliant microplate.
Of course! PlateWeigh may be used for automated weighing of anything up to 520 g. It offers accuracy to
1.0 µg.
Yes. For optimal performance, labware, contents, and the highly sensitive PlateWeigh weigh cell should be the same temperature to avoid errors from air buoyancy and fluctuations resulting from convection currents across the labware’s surface. Also, avoid temperature transfer from hands to labware.
Yes. If electrostatic buildup is present, the measurement may fluctuate constantly. If this occurs, use ionization to neutralize the labware surface charge before placing the labware into the PlateWeigh.
Yes. Magnetic samples may interact with the PlateWeigh weigh cell to distort measurements. To minimize this interaction, increase the distance between the labware containing magnetic material and weigh cell through use of a nonmagnetic material.
