Abstract
A pipetting device includes a pipetting channel at least partially filled with working gas, a pipetting tip accessible through a pipetting opening such that the volume of dosing liquid drawn into the receiving chamber can be varied by changing the pressure of the working gas in the receiving chamber, a pipetting piston for changing the pressure of the working gas and accommodated in the pipetting channel to be movable along the pipetting channel, a drive driving the pipetting piston to perform a movement along the pipetting channel, a control device controlling the drive, and a pressure sensor sensing the pressure of the working gas. The control device controls the drive to generate a pressure pulse in the pipetting channel based on the pressure signal output by the pressure sensor whereby the pressure of the working gas during the pulse follows a predefined working gas target pressure pulse curve.
