initial configuration should include this definition on the worksurface.

operate as intended. Total volume per ea. section is 6000 ul. Volume of
the sub-trough is 10ul. Liquid Level sensing may not perform appropriately
under all conditions however adjustments can and should be made or
standard vertical 1/4s should be used under those conditions. Minor
adjustments to Depth and Height may be required from system to system or
from other reservoir holders like the chillable holder. You will have
to trim the registration nubbs for use with the standard B2K styrene
holder.
