Product catalog summary
Overview: The Electrothermal Catalogue presents a range of equipment designed for preparing samples in pathology and histology laboratories. The catalogue features three main products: the Paraffin Wax Dispenser, the Paraffin Section Mounting Bath, and the Slide Drying Bench, each serving a specific function in the sample preparation process.
1. Paraffin Wax Dispenser (MH8523B):
This device heats paraffin wax to a liquid state, providing a convenient 'wax on tap' solution. It has a 4.5-litre capacity and operates within a temperature range of ambient +5°C to 75°C. Key features include a heated tap to prevent wax solidification, a non-drip swivel lever tap with a replaceable filter, and safety features such as an over-temperature cut-out at 105°C and a non-resettable thermal fuse. The dispenser is easy to clean and virtually maintenance-free.
2. Paraffin Section Mounting Bath (MH8516):
Designed for handling paraffin wax samples, this bath allows for the manipulation of wax sections onto glass slides. It features a PTFE black interior and a powder-coated white aluminium exterior. The bath achieves a nominal temperature of 70°C for 2 litres of water within 120 minutes, with overheating protection provided by a thermal fuse. Excess wax or damaged sections can be removed easily using filter paper.
3. Slide Drying Bench (MH6616):
This bench aids in the preparation of microscope slides, accommodating up to 50 slides. It offers various drying orientations and operates up to a maximum temperature of 100°C. The bench is constructed with a powder-coated aluminium base and top, and includes carrying handles for convenience. Temperature control is managed by a built-in energy regulator.
Technical Specifications:
Each product is detailed with specific technical information, including material composition, dimensions, weight, and electrical requirements. The catalogue provides ordering information for different models and configurations, catering to various voltage and plug standards.
