SOCOREX® Acura® Capillar 846 Positive Displacement Micropipette

Socorex Acura® capillar 846 Positive Displacement Micropipette: High-Performance Precision for Challenging Liquids

The Socorex Acura® capillar 846 represents a high-performance solution for positive displacement pipetting, specifically engineered to handle challenging liquids including viscous samples, foaming solutions, and volatile solvents where traditional air-displacement pipettes struggle to maintain accuracy. This precision micropipette features an interchangeable glass capillary tube paired with a chemically inert ETFE (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) tipped stainless steel plunger that comes into direct contact with liquids, ensuring exceptional resistance to chemical exposure and eliminating the risk of contamination or sample loss. Five models provide comprehensive coverage from 1 to 200 µL with five easy-to-adjust pre-set volumes on each pipette, offering remarkable versatility across micro-volume applications while maintaining superior accuracy and precision that meets ISO 8655 standards.

Designed with enhanced pipetting comfort as a priority, the Acura capillar 846 features a slim body shape that fits comfortably in any hand, complemented by a well-positioned finger rest hook that enables the pipette to rest naturally on the finger during extended use. The well-engineered spring system delivers remarkably smooth plunger activation with reduced force requirements, minimizing hand fatigue during repetitive pipetting tasks. An intuitive color-coding system matches pipettes, plunger tips, and glass capillaries for instant volume identification—white for 1-5 µL, double white for 5-25 µL, green for 10-50 µL, blue for 60-100 µL, and red for 100-200 µL—streamlining workflow efficiency and reducing the risk of volume selection errors.

The Acura capillar 846 delivers exceptional performance with inaccuracy levels as low as ±0.7% and imprecision (CV%) as tight as 0.3% across its volume range, achieved through reliable step-wise volume adjustment and clear volume reading directly on the pipette barrel. Each model features five pre-set volumes clearly marked for rapid selection of commonly used volumes without continuous adjustment. Acura capillar 846 represents the ideal choice for laboratories requiring dependable positive displacement technology for demanding liquid handling applications.

Glass capillaries are available separately.
