Choose Standard for atmospheric-pressure processing or Advanced for vacuum-assisted processing. The carousel moves tissue baskets through 12 stations: nine reagent cups and three paraffin cups.
Choose cup volume and basket count to suit your workload. The configuration with 1.3 L cups holds up to 50 cassettes per basket; the configuration with 2.3 L cups holds up to 80 cassettes per basket. Your quote confirms basket count, cup material and installation requirements.
Manual and automatic modes, programmable station times and a delayed start of up to 30 days support laboratory scheduling. Processing duration depends on the tissue and your validated protocol.
How It Works
Choose Standard for atmospheric-pressure processing or Advanced for vacuum-assisted processing. Tissue baskets move between reagent and paraffin stations using the selected timing program.
