New Brunswick MP-1000 Plate Pourer Review

The New Brunswick Scientific MP-1000 is an automated dish-filling system who makes high quality agar plates with a low cost. It is a single-carousel layout petri dish filler that will automatically dispenses sterile agar into covered plastic petri dishes.

The space efficient design uses the same carousel to hold both empty along with filled dishes without the need for separate empty as well as filled stacking areas. You can load up for you to 320 dishes associated with size 100 a 15 or 58 x 15 mm.

An optional Conversion Process Kit (purchased independently) is available for rapid change of petri dish sizes. The PourMatic has two operating settings: Continuous and Batch. Continuous Mode allows processing one stack of petri dishes at the same time. The user removes piles of filled dish and loads bare dishes on a ongoing basis.

For Batch Mode, the New Brunswick WP 1000 user lots up to 320 dishes and the PourMatic automatically floods them in one single run. The agar filled petri dishes cool by natural convection. A digital timer collection by the user, alerts the end of a cooling cycle. Petri dishes are generally filled with a user-selected level of agar by an integral peristaltic metering pump motor. Accurate and reproducible dispensing is achieved through regulating pump revolutions.

Dispense amount can be independent of variations inside line voltage. Agar dispenses at low velocity to supply a gentle flow into the dish and the number of the dispensed agar is adjustable by the user. Your PourMatic features three working speeds to allow mild handling of complete dishes or highest processing rates using normally filled dishes.

Petri dishes filled with the PourMatic are level, uniform and bubble-free. The PourMatic shuts off automatically at the end of the actual filling cycle, signaled simply by an audible beep. Automatic shut-off occurs because audible and seen signals alert the user of an upside-down, half or perhaps jammed dish.

As a safety feature, your germicidal lamp is manipulated by an mesh switch, lighting only when the airborne dirt and dust cover is properly located. It pours up to 900 plates by the hour (15 dishes each and every minute), or 320 dish per carousel (8-10 stacks of 45 dishes). Without user intervention, the PourMatic aseptically dispenses agar straight into 100 or 58 mm Petri dishes along with stacks the steril discs in a carousel to chill. Dispensing volume is adjustable from 5-40 mL.


New Features:

• Dish carrier speed can be reduced for gentle transfer of larger volume plates without spillage and increased for rapid production rates.
• Tubing loads in seconds with single-pump lever - needs no screws or tools.
• User selected cooling time.
• Optional printer for plate coding with no increase in process time.

Bottom Line:

The development of the self-stacking dish filler made it possible for thousands of laboratories to automate up to 320 plates being poured and stacked in about 20 minutes without operator intervention. The New Brunswick MP-1000 ensures high amounts of reliability under continuous operations year over year.
