8 Channel Pipette
Description
Designed for high-throughput laboratory workflows including ELISA, PCR, qPCR, cell culture, and 96-well plate applications. Hawach 8-channel pipettes (also known as multichannel pipettes or multichannel micropipettes) enable simultaneous liquid transfer across 8 channels, dramatically reducing handling time and improving reproducibility compared to single-channel pipettes. Available in Standard (half autoclavable) and Advanced Plus (fully autoclavable) series, covering volume ranges from 0.5μL to 300μL. All models are factory calibrated to ISO 8655 standards.
8-Channel vs Single-Channel vs 12-Channel Pipette – Which to Choose?
| Feature | Single Channel | 8-Channel | 12-Channel |
|---|---|---|---|
| Throughput | Low | High | Very High (96-well plate fill) |
| 96-well plate fill time | ~10-15 min | ~1-2 min | ~30-45 sec |
| Flexibility | Excellent (individual tubes) | Good (plate rows) | Moderate (plate rows) |
| Best for | Individual samples, serial dilutions | 96-well plate rows, ELISA, PCR | Full 96-well plates, high-throughput |
| Cost | Lowest | Moderate | Higher |
Recommendation: Choose 8-channel pipette when you need to fill 96-well plates row by row (8 wells per row). This format balances speed and cost, making it the most popular choice for routine plate-based assays including ELISA, PCR, and cell culture.
Applications – Where 8-Channel Pipettes Are Used
ELISA & Immunoassays
Simultaneous loading of standards, controls, samples, and detection antibodies across 96-well plates. Dramatically reduces plate processing time.
PCR & qPCR Setup
Add master mix and sample to PCR plate wells in a fraction of the time. Ensures consistent reagent dispensing across all wells.
Cell Culture
Seed 96-well plates for cell-based assays. Uniform seeding density improves experimental consistency and reproducibility.
High-Throughput Screening
Process hundreds or thousands of samples per day in pharmaceutical drug discovery and compound screening workflows.
Microplate Assays
Enzyme kinetics, protein quantification, and reporter gene assays across 96- and 384-well formats.
Genomics & NGS Library Prep
Next-generation sequencing library preparation, normalization, and pooling with high throughput.

Frequently Asked Questions – 8-Channel Pipette
What is a multichannel pipette used for?
Multichannel pipettes (8-channel, 12-channel) are used for rapid, simultaneous liquid transfer across multiple wells of microplates – ideal for ELISA, PCR, cell culture, and high-throughput screening.
What is the difference between 8-channel and 12-channel?
8-channel pipettes fill one row of a 96-well plate (8 wells). 12-channel fills a 96-well plate column (12 wells). Choose 8-channel for most 96-well applications; choose 12-channel if you work with 96-well plates in column format or 384-well plates.
What is the difference between Standard and Advanced Plus series?
Standard is half autoclavable (lower assembly only). Advanced Plus is fully autoclavable – recommended for PCR workflows and sterile applications. Accuracy specifications are identical.
How do I calibrate a multichannel pipette?
Hawach multichannel pipettes come factory calibrated to ISO 8655. For recalibration, we recommend professional service due to the complexity of maintaining channel-to-channel consistency. Contact us for calibration service.
What is the ISO 8655 standard for multichannel pipettes?
ISO 8655 defines maximum permissible errors for piston-operated pipettes. For multichannel pipettes, error limits are doubled compared to single-channel pipettes to account for channel variation.
What pipette tips are compatible with these pipettes?
Universal tip compatibility. For 0.5-10μL use 10μL tips; for 5-50μL, 10-100μL, and 50-300μL use 200μL or 300μL tips. Hawach precision tips recommended for optimal performance.
Can I get OEM branding?
Yes – private label, custom color, logo printing, and user manual branding are available for qualified partners.
