About this file
This is a Product Description and Minimum Essential Characteristics attachment for a federal contract opportunity. CLIN 0001 specifies a complete NGS STAR system for automated library preparation in next-generation sequencing applications. The system includes the NGS STAR instrument configured with an 8/96 AL ISWAP pipetting head, extended housing, waste management components, thermal cycling capability, magnetic separation plates, and a Windows 11 system controller. The package encompasses all necessary accessories, including Ergotron monitor and keyboard mounting hardware, INHECO 96-well thermal cycler, Hamilton liquid handling components with conductive filter tips in three volumes (50 μL, 300 μL, and 1000 μL), and HHS2 cooling modules for temperature control from 4°C to 70°C. Consumable kits for FVK II independent channels and MPH-96 applications are included, along with shipping, inside delivery by four-person team, installation, method programming, and operator training services.
The minimum essential characteristics require the system to perform automated library preparation with validated pre-programmed protocols for both Illumina Viral Surveillance Panel version 2 and Qiagen QIAseq xHYB Viral and Bacterial Library Kit. The system must process up to 96 samples simultaneously using eight independent 1000 μL pipetting channels with asymmetric span-8 spacing capability for varied tube geometries. Technical requirements mandate locked-in-place tip coupling equivalent to Hamilton CO-RE II technology to prevent misalignment, conductive liquid level detection (cLLD) for low-volume samples, accurate pipetting of 10 μL to 1000 μL volumes, an integrated 96-well thermal cycler equivalent to the Inheco 96 ODTC Left, high-performance active cooling modules, and a universal magnetic plate optimized for bead-based extraction and cleanup protocols.

NOMENCLATURE: Automated Library Preparation for Next Generation Sequencing
Minimum Essential Characteristics
- Automated library preparation for next generation sequencing
- Must include validated pre-programed protocols for Illumina Viral Surveillance
Panel version 2 and Qiagen QIAseq xHYB Viral and Bacterial Library Kit
- Be able to process up to 96 samples at a time.
- Must include eight (8) independent 1000 𝜇𝜇L pipetting channels capable of asymmetric spacing (span-8) to perform liquid transfers from varied tube geometries to microplates Ability to minimize hazardous waste generation through segregated sample and solvent waste streams.
- Must utilize locked-in-place tip coupling (equivalent to Hamilton CO-RE II technology) to prevent tip misalignment, drop-offs, or spatial distortion during high-force lateral movements. The system must support conductive liquid level detection (cLLD) to detect liquid boundaries in low-volume wastewater samples dynamically.
- Must accurately and reproducibly pipet volumes ranging from 10 𝜇𝜇L to 1000 𝜇𝜇L using aerosol-barrier, conductive filter tips (50 𝜇𝜇L, 300 𝜇𝜇L, and 1000 𝜇𝜇L).
- Must feature an integrated, automated 96-well thermal cycler (equivalent to the Inheco 96 ODTC Left) to perform automated on-deck PCR amplification.
- Must feature high-performance active cooling modules capable of chilling master mixes, reagents, and samples at a temperature range of 4∘C to 70∘C.
- Must feature a high-performance, universal magnetic plate optimized for bead-based clean-up and extraction protocols.
