KD-BM Tissue Embedding Center

Description:

• The space-saving KD-BM Embedding Center is a complete paraffin dispensing unit including a 3 liters paraffin container. The ergonomically elevated heated working area is illuminated with adjustable LED light and allows comfortable processing of specimen. All functions of the unit are controlled by an intuitive control panel including programmable working hours. Two heated trays provide a pre-warming capacity of 80 cassettes and 200 embedding molds.

Features:

1. Fully programmable computer controls allow automatic system start and stop anytime (weekly);
2. Temperature is controlled by microprocessors made in the USA and they are displayed  using color-changing LEDs to enable clear visibility of working status;
3. Five heated areas, including Paraffin Chamber, Paraffin Dispenser, left and right Thermal Storage Compartments, and heating plate (working area), are individually controlled and work independently without interference from each other;
4. Flexible heating mechanism overcomes the shortcomings of traditional technology that can result in excessive temperature differences. System provides fast heating and precise temperature control. In addition, the dual-protection from overheating is safe, reliable and energy-saving;
5. Automatic memory and restoration functions: After startup, all preset temperature data are automatically stored in the system;
6. Flexible module configuration options through a design which separates the Cryo Module from Embedding Module;
7. Safe and reliable low-voltage illumination system;
8. Heated working plate and forceps wells make tissue embedding more convenient;
9. Large granite working area eases the cleanup of excessive paraffin.
