Ink Pipette
The ink pipette is made up of:
- Micrometer screw
This consists of a graduated sleeve with internal thread, featuring a scale from 0 to 2 ml. There are intermediate graduations every 0.1 ml and additionally 0.05 ml graduation on the HR version. The screw that rotates in the sleeve is attached to a thimble surrounding the sleeve. There is a circular scale on the thimble with graduations of 0.01 ml on the standard version and 0.001 ml on the HR version. The difference between the initial and the final level equals the measured volume.
- Barrel with plunger
The barrel is a precisionground tube. The plunger is a plastic rod that fits accurately into the barrel and can be moved. The plunger is fixed to the micrometer screw by means of a hook fastener.
- Nozzle with nylon cap
Every barrel has a nozzle which screws onto the barrel. The nozzle is fitted with a nylon cap, which has an opening through which the ink can be forced out.
