The new automatic stainer AUS240, characterized by the use of the most recent technologies, is able to guarantee:
Ease of use
Brilliant staining
Reproducible results
The instrument is able to create different types of colors:
Hystology (Hematoxylin-Eosin)
Cytology (Papanicolaou)
Special colors (Giemsa, PAS, Alcian Blu, Alcian PAS, Mucicarminio, Perls, Masson Tricromica, Ziehl Neelsen)
STAINER FEATURES
The instrument guarantees the continuous loading of 30 slides baskets; the daily productivity dipends on the staining protocols. 10 baskets can be stained contemporaneously, using the same protocol.
The software guarantees the protocols set by the operator, using the most rapid way.
The stainer contains 40 dishes (485ml each), of different types:
Reagents: 28 stations, with high resistence to corrosion, placed on racks
with 7 positions, easy to remove, for substitution and cleaning.
Washing: 5 stations with regolulation of pression and water flow
in and out.
Drying: 2 ovens that can produce forced ventilation with 60°C air.
Loading: 2 stations, with possibility of loading new baskets when the
instrument is closed
Downloading: 3 stations, with the possibility of removing the stained
baskets when the instrument is closed.
The agitation of the reagent dishes is particular and innovative, it is completely independent from the automatic arm.
This particular agitation system (called “WAVING”) allows to obtain omogeneity of the staining solutioninside the dish, improving the quality of section staining and, last but not least, it reduces the amount of precipitate produced during daily routine.
Innovative is also the “ANTI DRIPPING” system which allows to keep a cleaner instrumendt thanks to the movement (with settable timing via software) of the basket in order to eliminate the excess of staining solution.
The vapour filtration system is totally integrated into the instrument and, thanks to the composition of active carchoal it is able to filter the 100% of toxic molecules, recycling clean and odourless air.
In addition, the end user can decide to connect the instrument to an external ventilation system in order to eliminate all vapours.
Thanks to the integrated UPS system, the functionality of the computer’s CPU is guaranteed for 30 minutes, so that in case of electrical alimentation issues, ones the instrument is switched on, it can continue the protocol starting from the last step wich was being executed.
