Condition
This system has been confirmed fully operational by the manufacturer following its decommission last year. It is in excellent cosmetic condition, having been last used by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA),
where it received meticulous care and maintenance. A manufacturer’s representative has confirmed that a quote for an accompanying laptop and software can be obtained directly from SPT Labtech (as this is not included in the sale).
Included in the Sale:
- Dragonfly Discovery Core Unit (8-channel model)
- Reservoir Tray x2
- Cat5e Cable
- Core Unit Power Supply (with regional cables)
- AFR Pump (Ismatec ISM4408) with 2 peristaltic pump cassettes
- Mini USB to USB-A Cable

- Peristaltic Pump Tubing (unopened)
This Dragonfly Discovery unit features eight independent channels, enabling versatile liquid handling for assay development, validation, and screening. Its non-contact positive displacement mechanism supports dispensing volumes from 200 nL up to 4 mL, minimising reagent use while allowing for bulk fills in higher-throughput settings.
Key Features
- 8 Independent Channels: Rapid and flexible dispensing for complex assays.
- Broad Volume Range (200 nL–4 mL): Ideal for conserving precious reagents.
- Non-Contact Positive Displacement: Eliminates clogging and removes the need for liquid class calibration.
- Zero Cross-Contamination: Disposable tips for each channel.
- High Throughput: Fill a 1,536-well plate in minutes or a 384-well plate in under a minute.
Minimal Dead Volume: Saves costs on expensive reagents.
Automation Friendly: Integrates easily into automated workcells or used standalone.
