Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Is Multiskan FC integrateable with robotics?

Yes, the Multiskan FC is intergrateable with robotics.

My Multiskan FC needs a new lamp. What is the catalog or part number? Can I replace it myself?

Yes, the Halogen lamp 6V/10W is Cat. No. 1410101. You can replace the lamp yourself using instructions in the Multiskan FC User Manual: https://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/51119100

I think my Multiskan FC isn't working right, but there's no error message. How can I check?

If the results are not as expected, performance can be verified using Multiskan Verification Plate (Cat. Nos. 24072800 (for 8 wavelengths, use with either model) or 24072805 (for 16 wavelengths, use with 51119100)).

Do I need to calibrate my Multiskan FC?

Readers are factory-calibrated and perform self-diagnostics on start-up to ensure consistent results over time. Should an error message appear indicating calibration is needed, contact your local Thermo Fisher Scientific microplate instrument service group at thermofisher.com/contactus.

Can I use uDrop Plate with Multiskan FC?

uDrop Plate is not compatible with Multiskan FC. For UV applications, refer to Multiskan Sky: https://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/51119500
