ABSTRACT:
A liquid handling system includes a translation mechanism, and a probe mounted on the translation mechanism. The probe has a number of lumens extending along the length of the probe. The lumens are open at their lower ends and connectable at their upper ends to a compressed air source and sources of liquid solvents. The system further includes multiple seal heads that can be attached to the lower end of the probe to perform various functions. Some seal heads seal to the tops of various sized containers placed below the probe, with a cylindrical splash guard overlying the exterior of the top of the container to prevent splashes that might injure personnel. Other seal heads rotatably attach to other structures, such as filters. The seal heads may be parked and then used, one at a time, by inserting the probe into the appropriate seal head. After use, the seal head is returned to the parking location and drawn off the end of the probe.
