Falcon Electric	Falcon Electric is a leading manufacturer of award-winning power protection solutions for customers like Merck, Siemens and Wyeth, with over one million units worldwide in critical applications. Our Biomedical and Laboratory-Grade Uninterruptible Power Systems (UPS) protect sensitive lab, testing and diagnostic instruments against the very costly effects of dirty power. Unlike most commercial UPS, Falcon UPS are designed for the demands of scientific lab instruments which require the highest level of clean power and dependable regulation because of their delicate operating parameters, complex load profiles and the critical nature of the applications. Utility power variations and disturbances can result in lost samples, test inaccuracies and data corruption. At Falcon, our engineers know first-hand the complexity of these systems and their load profiles and have designed sophisticated power solutions that satisfy even the most complicated power problem. Falcon maximizes your throughput, lowers your maintenance costs and ensures sustained runtimes with its true on-line, fully regenerative UPS.

METTLER TOLEDO	METTLER TOLEDO weighing performance Perfectly applied to pipette calibration To ensure accurate and reliable results, most laboratories regularly need to calibrate or verify the proper condition of all their daily used liquid handling instruments, such as piston-operated pipettes. Already very tiny pipetting errors have a direct impact on the test results of experiments carried out in the laboratory. Especially in regulated environments, calibration according to the ISO 8655 standard is obligatory. The pipette calibration portfolio of METTLER TOLEDO includes professional solutions such as the XP26PC and the MCP system. The XP26PC microbalance is the solution of choice for high-speed micropipettes calibration. The MCP is a dedicated system for multi-channel pipette calibration. It brings significant time savings by calibrating up to 12 channels in parallel. Additionally, METTLER TOLEDO offers a comprehensive software package and special accessories for regular analytical and microbalances to allow easy and reliable pipette check in the lab.
