Staining machines provide flexibility, high throughput, and reproducibility, making them ideal for research and routine applications in histological and cytological laboratories. High-capacity, continuous loading units can process up to 2500 slides/day and run multiple staining protocols simultaneously. They contain 36 easily accessible reagent stations, 27 of which are free definable. All reagent stations feature independent specimen movement. All models include three pressure-controlled water/rinse stations, plus either two heater or two deionized water stations. Each bath container has an individual cover that is automatically lifted and transferred during program execution; this, combined with drip-preventing design, reduces reagent evaporation and carry-over. Downdraft ventilation and charcoal filtration provide integrated fume control. Permanent program memory can store more than 50 different programs of up to 100 steps each. System provides automated documentation of all staining parameters and protocols. Dimensions: 112.7 x 76.5 x 60 cm (443/8 x 30 x 235/8") Weight: 85 kg (187 lbs.)
