AUTOMATIC SLIDE STAINER

Automatic slide stainer with XY translator Completely programmable Multi-basket-protocol for histology and citology slide staining The Intelsint AUS is a modern high throughput XY stainer, specifically designed for the operators safety and protection. A total of 40 stations are available distributed on 3 rows. 28 reagent tanks are allocated in 2 rows (mid and back row), an additional front row contains 5 tanks for flowing water, 2 input and 3 output tanks on a sliding-drawer with baskets sensors, the remaining 2 positions of the front row are fitted with warm air slide dryers. All the structural...

Reagent Stations: 28 reagent tanks are allocated in 2 rows Washing Station: 5 tanks, flow adjustment, single solenoid valve control. Slide Baskets handling: made by 3 independent axles on an XYZ scheme, with closed loop control IN/OUT Stations: 2 IN and 3 OUT basket stations, allocated on a sliding drawer that can be opened independently from the instrument lid cover Fumes Neutralization: air aspiration system with charcoal filter Drying Stations: 2 with air forced ventilation up to 60°C, with electronic control and a precision of 1°C control. (opt. 920091)

Slide Dryer Module Code 920091 (Optional) The slide stainer can be equipped with a 2-station drying system, each station is provided with a heater and fan. The two units are operated simultaneously so to keep temperature constant. Temperature is surveyed by means of a probe (thermocouple) placed on the wall situated at the centre of the heater. Reagent mixing by mechanical up/down movement of the reagent tanks Code 920092 (Optional) The slide stainer can be equipped with an agitation system that sways the tanks and reagents contained. The 28 reagent tanks are allocated in 4 removable racks with...

Basket Automatic recognition system (H&E/PAP) Code 920090 (Optional) The AUS2 is able, thanks to an optional feature, to recognize if the basket inserted into the loading station is loaded with histologic or cytologic slides. Between the 18 different protocols present in the stainer it is possible to define a protocol specific for histologic stains and one for cytologic stains. The instrument will automatically select and launch the corresponding one when he detects the tipe of basket. This feature allows to reduce any possible error during the loading of the unit and optimizes the loading operation...

Functional Features Slide throughput: 30 slides baskets continuous loading, up to 10 slide baskets handled/stained at the same time, with the same staining protocols. Operating procedure: when a basket is inserted in an input stations the system asks the operator to define the staining protocols required, default protocols are proposed on 3 fast-start buttons. Total Operative Stations: Reagent Stations: 28 high resistance plastic tanks, 485 ml operating volume (600ml total volume) Water Washing Stations: 5 tanks (removable), with water flow pressure adjustment and single solenoid valves for individual...

Simple protocols monitoring Through a simple and clear user interface every operation is under total control. All 40 stations and all actuators with their status (agitation system, water valves, air filtration, dryers, sensors, IN/OUT drawer) are clearly represented on the color screen. During the operating phases the end-effector in movement is shown (basket translator). It is possible to check the work in progress of each slide basket simply touching the related basket icon. Touching the reagent tanks it is possible in any moment to know their situation (contents, baskets processed, last change...
