Minux® FS800A Cryostats
Fully Automated
With a fully automated, user-friendly operating system, the FS800A gives you the confidence to consistently produce reproducible, thin, serial frozen sections of maximum quality. Fast, accurate, and fatigue-free frozen sectioning.
Overview
The FS800A cryostat delivers a fully automated, user-friendly operating system that gives you the confidence to consistently produce reproducible, thin, serial frozen sections of the maximum quality.
For the purpose of getting fast results, keeping tissue samples intact is crucial in clinical pathology, histology, histopathology, and research labs. This is achieved by using a cryostat that employs cryogenic temperatures to freeze and preserve tissues. The FS800A is your ideal choice for fast, accurate, and fatigue-free frozen sectioning.
Available Types
FS800A Auto
Cryostat with motorized sectioning to improve reproducibility.
FS800A Max
Fully automatic cryostat with vacuum cleaning system for whole function.
Key Features
1Intelligent
- Four automatic slicing modes can meet the needs of different slicing tissue scenes.
- Cutting window function ensures quality as well as improves efficiency.
2Stable
- Stable temperature: The advanced temperature control system, compressor and cooling system perfectly guarantee temperature stability.
- Stable slice quality: 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.
3Safe
- 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 management system: Waste liquid volume will be displayed on the touch screen. Full bottle alarm prevents waste liquid from flowing out and contaminating the ground.
4Efficient
- Efficient operation: Boasting a colorful touch-sensitive screen. Integrating coarse sample feeding, trimming and section switching, and slice parameter adjustment with a joystick to constitute an efficient operating system.
- Quick positioning: Precise positioning system with ±8° visual pointer makes it easy to adjust the specimen clamp to the target angle, reducing trimming and sample waste.
- Automatic sleep and wake-up: Saves energy, simplifies manual operation and reduces waiting time.
