Maximum safety for the tissue Practical details The tissue specimens are protected from drying out even during a power failure since the tissue baskets are automatically immersed in a station. The program is resumed where interrupted once mains power is restored. After a long-term power failure, the wax will be liquefied. If the programmed infiltration time for any of the stations is exceeded a warning message is displayed indicating the station number and the time in excess of program. The specimen throughput can be doubled by using a second tissue basket for improved productivity in routine...
