PARAFFIN SECTION MOUNTING BATH, GLASS, WITH ILLUMINATION
This instrument uses microprocessor control and a modular design for best reliability and precision. The low profile unit has a removable rectangular glass basin for easy cleaning. The glass basin is obliquity illuminated by LED which results in a high contrast, glare-free image. When the light is off the specimens are seen against a black background.

Temperature settings are controlled by buttons for accurate and precise control and the easy to read LED display show both set and actual temperatures. The corrosion resistant, stainless steel temperature probe flips down into place. The probe has a thermostat sensor which is activated when inserted into the bath.

Features

• The maximum operating temperature is 70°C, ±1°C.
• Probe is corrosion-resistant and stainless.
• The probe is connected to a cut-off switch which is monitored by the temperature control system and can also prevent the unit from drying out.
• Light baths enhances visibility of floated sections. The glass tray is transparent for maximum light contrast.
• The durable glass tray is chemical resistant, and the built-in high-brightness LED lamp has a separate "ON/OFF" switch from the temperature control panel.

SLIDE WARMER
The Step Up™ slide warmer's unique design saves space and allows easy retrieval of slides since the end of the slide is not on the flat surface. Great for paraffin tissue section mounting in the fields of cytology, histology, pathology and biology. It is also an ideal choice for laboratories, education institutes and scientific research organisations.

The heated surface leaves the label part of the slide protruding and therefore cool. The slide supports are angled to achieve a tiered lay-out, and the back legs of the instrument are higher to bring slides to the horizontal plane, which keeps the cover slips in place. The result is a space-saving slide warmer with any slide accessible and cool to pick-up.

Features

• The Premiere® Step Up™ slide warmer is a "tiered" laboratory slide warmer that is easy to assemble and use.
• The Step Up™ has 4 levels holding up to 40 slides.
• The new design of the Step Up™ surface allows for easier and safer pick-up of slides.
• The slide warmer has an electrophoretic surface coating.
• The Step Up™ warms slides via heating elements which transfer the heat across the entire surface.
• The Step Up™ slide warmer is designed for use in the fields of cytology, histology, and biology.

Specifications

• Step Up™ holds twice as many slides as a flat unit of the same size. (40 standard slides)
• Anodised black surface provides contrast with samples
• Thermal heater ensures heat transfer over the entire surface
• Removable tray for easy cleaning
• LED temperature display
• Digital control temperature setting range from room temperature to 70°C, ±1°C
• Overall dimensions: 355 x 355 x 102mm
• Electrical: 230V, 50Hz, 300W
• Manufactured to ISO 9002 standards
