The model P-30 vertical micropipette
puller is designed for the fabrication of basic micropipettes and patch-type
pipettes. It will pull micropipettes with tip diameters as small as 0.3um
and moderate taper lengths (10 to 15mm). By using an included patching
attachment, the P-30 will pull the standard double pull patch-type
pipette. Used with thin wall glass capillaries, it will generate pipettes
or needles suitable for microinjection studies. The P-30 is ideal
for student laboratories and other situations which call for an economical,
reliable pipette pulling device.

| Pulls
electrodes with tip diameters down to 0.3µm, consistently and reliably. |
| A
micrometer allows precise reproducibility of trip point settings
in producing fine microelectrodes. |
| Full
three digit digital controls for accurate setting of heat and pull
values. |
| Constant
current power supplies for filament and pull solenoid. |
| Enclosed
front to reduce variability caused by drafts. |
| Dual
(manually) switched heat settings for patch pulling or two different
types of micropipettes. |
| All
working parts are made from corrosion resistant material. |
| Two
heating assemblies available; platinum/iridium (recommended) or Nichrome
coil. |
| Built
in RFI filter and dual voltage/dual frequency operation. |
| Rubber
padded jaws to minimize breakage of capillary tubing. |
| Designed
to take up a minimum of bench space. |
| Slope
of the front panel aids in preventing glass from entering cabinet/solenoid
mechanism. |
The P-30 is available with either a platinum/iridium
or a Nichrome filament. The Nichrome filament is suitable for many applications
and is not prone to damage.The Platinum filament is more efficient at
heating and cooling, and, although is more prone to damage than the Nichrome
filament, the platinum filament is recommended for thick wall and aluminosilicate
glass and applications requiring shorter taper lengths.
