VolumeCheck™ Product Line Automated Non-Contact Liquid Level Detection
The VolumeCheck™ is used in laboratories around the world for
sample volume detection in applications for sample library
inventory management, assay plate quality control, QC/QA,
assay development, and
DNA processing. The most
common use is for sample
volume detection for
incoming plate samples and
volume verification for
plates before and after
liquid handling operations.
Features
• Collects and outputs sample volume data for each well position
• Works with common lab solutions such as water, alcohol, buffer, DMSO and more
• No consumables – works with your sample racks and plates!

VolumeCheck™ Product Line
How it Works
VolumeCheck™ measures sensor-to-sample distance of known sample
volumes to create a calibration table. The sensor-to-sample distance
decreases as larger amounts of sample are added to the well. Using a
reference curve specific to each well plate or tube rack, the VolumeCheck
instrument returns the volume of sample or compound in each well position.
VolumeCheck Calibration Tables
A sensor distance-to-volume calibration plot is generated by scanning
known sample volumes in specific well plates or tube racks. The
VolumeCheck software provides a utility to efficiently generate the data to
establish the distance-to-volume calibration tables. The volumes of
unknown samples are scanned and extrapolated from a reference table.
System Resolution and Accuracy
The VolumeCheck system is a general purpose volume detection system for
a wide variety of labware. The VolumeCheck liquid level sensor is capable of
sensing changes in sample volume in the sub 2-3 μL range for 384 well
plates, in the sub 10 μL range for 96 well plates.
The VolumeCheck system resolution can be maximized by:
• Centrifuging sample plates to provide a consistent sample meniscus level
• Ensuring the calibration table is optimized to the consumables and type of sample
• Reducing dimensional variation in labware
BioMicroLab provides automation solutions for tube and vial handling, liquid handling, capping/decapping, labeling, volume detection,
and 2D barcode readers for pharmaceutical, biotech, agricultural and research laboratories worldwide. We have a no-compromise
commitment to equipping our customers with innovative and world-class sample management tools.
