Sonifier Cell Disruptor Microtips DESCRIPTION: Microtip probes are available in tapered and stepped configurations and are designed to process samples contained in small diameter vessels at extremely high intensity (refer to chart for recommended volumes). Tapered microtips screw into standard 1/2" step horns with tapped ends. The double stepped microtip consists of a coupler and a stepped tip and screws directly into the converter. It has lower amplitude than the tapered tip, but is capable of reaching into small diameter vessels of greater depth and can process solutions down to 0.1 ml. The horns and microtips detailed on this sheet are also compatible with the earlier Branson Sonifier, Model 350. For information on horns for Sonifier Models 185-200, call us or your Customer Service Representative. WARNING: Because of their high amplitude, microtips are highly stressed and can break if operated in air or at an output control setting greater than 7 on all Sonifier models.
