Complete Product Description

Introducing the most versatile, flexible and efficient high throughput automated slide stainer designed to be an integral component in today?s laboratory: The Leica Autostainer XL  ST5010. Multiple staining protocols can be run simultaneously with up to 11 slide racks at the same time.

A continuous loading system ensures optimal utilization of the instrument, especially during longer staining procedures. A unique feature of the LEICA AUTOSTAINER XL  ST5010 is the ability to perform several different staining protocols simultaneously. Thus a special staining, for example, can be performed parallel to a routine H & E staining.

A higher operational capacity and a design in accordance with international safety standards make the LEICA AUTOSTAINER XL ST5010  the instrument of choice for the histopathological laboratory.

Leica Autostainer XL  ST5010 Features

• Continuous loading - can load up to 11 racks (with 30 slides per rack) while processing
• Can stain over 150 slides per hour with typical H&E protocols
• Simultaneous staining of several different protocols - can select any compatible program for each rack
• Self contained fume control with replaceable filter
• Easy to operate, compact design
• PC access for fault diagnosis
• Stain up to 200 slides per hour.
• Easy to use menu-driven and microprocessor controlled. 15 programs can be stored in memory each with up to 25 steps.
• 18 reagent stations, 5 wash stations, and an integrated forced hot air oven that significantly reduces slide drying time.
• Staining programs can be terminated at any reagent and racks can be removed prior to completion of the staining protocol
• Autostainer will not start a stain protocol that it is incompatible with another stain protocol already in progress
• Programming flexibility ? stain protocol may begin or end in any station and move in any station sequence that maximizes utilization of the instrument.
• Water saving feature, which stops the flow of water, if none of the wash stations is in use.
• Fume containment hood and internal extraction fan with integral charcoal filter removes hazardous fumes.
• PC access for fault diagnosis by service engineer.
