Main features of semiautomatic MINUX® cryostat
Stability
The advanced temperature control system, compressor and cooling system perfectly guarantee temperature stability.
High-precision cross rail and screw, five-phase high-resolution sampling motor and horizontal sampling slider made of aviation aluminum, form a precise sampling system to ensure stable slice quality.
Safety
UVC disinfection: adopting advanced low-temperature UVC disinfection technology to effectively kill bacteria and viruses, disinfecting the inner surface and the air of the cabinet to reduce the risk of contamination by infectious materials.
Waste liquid volume is displayed on the touch screen. the system has full bottle alarm to prevent waste liquid from flowing out and contaminating the space around.
Efficiency
Efficient operation: cryostat is equippped in colorful, sensitive touchscreen and joystick for integration of coarse sample feeding, trimming and section switching, also for slice parameter adjustment.
Quick positioning: precise positioning system with ±8° visual pointer make easy the adjustment of specimen clamp to the target angle, reducing trimming and sample waste.
Automatic sleep and wake-up mode: saving energy, simplifying manual operation and reducing waiting.
