This Agilent Bravo is a used laboratory automation system, dating from 2012 and currently located in Germany. Laboratory automation platforms of this kind — sometimes referred to as liquid handling workstations — are designed to perform precise, repeatable liquid dispensing, plate management, and sample processing tasks that would otherwise require significant manual effort. Agilent Technologies is a globally recognised manufacturer of scientific instrumentation and laboratory equipment, serving life sciences, diagnostics, genomics, and applied chemical research.
This particular unit is configured as the G5522A NGS Workstation, a benchtop integrated system that combines plate management and liquid handling into a single coordinated automation platform. The workstation integrates the Bravo Liquid Handler with a BenchCel microplate handler, creating a unified system capable of running automated next-generation sequencing (NGS) sample preparation workflows from a compact benchtop footprint.
The liquid handling deck is equipped with five standard pads, two CPAC Ultraflat heated and cooled pads, a Bravo Orbital Shaker, a Bravo Thermal Pad, and a Magnetic Bead Pad. A PCR Plate Support for 96-well plates and a CPAC PCR Plate Insert are included, along with deck risers for the Bravo. Thermal management is supported by a Thermocube Chiller rated at 400 W, dedicated to the Bravo Thermal Pad, while a separate controller is included for the CPAC Pad.
The system also includes the Bravo Gripper Upgrade for automated plate handling, as well as a 96LT Disposable Tip Head for 96-channel liquid transfer operations. Plate logistics are managed by the BenchCel 4-Rack Microplate Handler, which features four front-loading racks and BenchCel Risers, and is integrated with a Labware MiniHub. A Robot Disable Hub is also included as part of the configuration.
Software licences supplied with the system include a VWorks Benchtop Licence and a VWorks Simulation Licence, enabling both live operation and offline method development and simulation.
