Space requirements
The minimum space requirements for your BenchCel device depends
on its configuration and stacker rack size. The following table lists
dimensions for a BenchCel device in a two-, four-, or six-stack
configuration.
Note:
The racks listed are the standard racks supplied with the system. In
addition, the weight of the rack is of the rack alone and does not include
liquid-filled microplates. The height and weight are slightly different
with different rack types. See the Velcity11 website
at
for the height and weight information of various
rack types.
Addition of devices
If you are integrating a Velocity11 device or third-party device in your
BenchCel Workstation, make sure you include adequate space to
accommodate these devices. See the device user documentation for
space requirement information.
