It is not easy to calibrate, but once calibrated it is easy to use. It is an expensive piece of equipment and requires care.

Manufacturer's Response
“For users who have to calibrate on a regular basis DWS provides a technical note (also available from our distributors worldwide) to assist in this process. We have sold in excess of 1000 WASP units and know of some models that are over 20 years old and still in good working order. The price of this equipment has reduced significantly in recent years and the initial cost should be considered in line with the cost savings in not having to prepare serial dilutions.”
