2.3 Instrument features
• Automatic stainer for H&E, Papanicolau and special simultaneous staining
• High productivity (max 12 slide holders simultaneously)
• STAIN ID technology, technology that allows automatic identification of handles and specific procedures related to them
• S
3
- Simultaneous Staining Scheduler, new software that generates the best possible configuration between the 40
workstations present inside the instrument, in accordance with laboratory procedures
• Automatic scanning of reagents level, automatic detection system that allows an adequate level of reagents and staining to
be maintained.
• High efficiency noiseless robotic arm that allows fast, accurate movements; before the movement to the next reagent, it
emulates manual dripping movement by placing the rack into inner reservoir sides. This procedure protects the level of the
reagents and guarantees a more accurate cleaning of staining reservoirs, it also limits cross-contamination
• Smart LED System, acoustic and visual warning about the status of the system
• Water Pressure System is a sensor that informs the operator of the possible absence of water flow into the water system
• The notice allows the user to intervene in time, in order to avoid the lack of differentiation of hematoxylin into running water
• Unlimited number of memorable staining procedures
• 4 loading stations (drawer IN)
• 4 unloading stations (drawer OUT)
• Continuous loading, management and opening of reagent drawer and IN/OUT drawers through software in order to avoid user
exposure to harmful vapours
• From 2 to 4 washing stations (customizable)
• From 26 to 28 reagent stations (customizable)
• Alarm for exhausted reagent replacement trough reagent management system
• Only one cap for the reservoirs surface that allows reagent reservoirs to be covered and uncovered with a single gesture.
• Colour touchscreen monitor
• Easy-to-use, Italian and English user interface
• Graphic representation regarding the state of the procedures
• Activated charcoal filter and fumes conveyor for external connection
• Emergency head
In order to avoid damages to the instrument or to the specimens, Diapath S.p.A. recommends to use only original spare
