Reagent Carousel
The Reagent Carousel Compartment provides an on-instrument storage area for the
individual reagent cartridges. A total of 59 reagent cartridges can be stored in the
carousel at one time. (Refer to Figure 2.12.)
The storage compartment is refrigerated and fan-cooled to maintain a temperature of
+5°C (±3°C).

Reagent Bar Code Reader (CC)
The Bar Code Reader, (refer to Figure 2.12), situated near the front of the Cartridge
Chemistry reagent access door, scans each label during the loading of reagent
cartridges. Only the reader for the selected carousel is active. An audible signal
acknowledges successful reading of the label.
The Reagent Probe assembly consists of a mechanical structure that supports two
moveable cranes. Attached to each crane is a pickup probe. (Refer to Figure 2.13
