laboratoryfor histologyembedding

The new Bio-Optica control unit is composed of BEC150 paraffin dispenser and BCP170 cooling plate. The operating parameters, switch-on and switch-off of the two modules can be programmed separately. The BEC150 paraffin dispenser is equipped with the following: - Proximity sensor for dispensing paraffin, with flow control function - 6 heated, pull-out holders for forceps - 2 paraffin collection drawers with disposable containers - Peltier spot capable of accommodating embedding molds for large samples - Double thermal unit capable of accommodating the racks of any floor-standing processor - Double jack for heated forceps or pestle - Touch-screen monitor - Fully lit work surface Accurate thermostatic control of the paraffin tank and work plate, and separate heating of the dispensing nozzle keep the operating temperature constant at all times. Paraffin dispenser used to effect the embedding of histological samples quickly and cleanly. The constant temperature of the paraffin basin, of the working plate and the separate heating of the dispensing nozzle assure the optimal working temperature. Thermal unit used for molds heating and paraffin of histological samples. Structural Features Easy-to-clean metal frame and silicon coated wrist pads. Paraffin tank with a capacity of 4 litres Large heated aluminum work plate that allows for a smooth workflow, simple operation and precise control. Integrated heated wax trimmers at both sides for convenient tissue block trimming The paraffin flow can be released manually by proximity sensor (maintenance-free) as well as via footswitch (optional accessory).
