pfm Cassette Trimming System CTS 500
The pfm Cassette Trimming System CTS 500 is used to remove excess paraffin from the outside edges of the cassettes after processing and embedding. This simplifies and speeds up the preparation of tissue blocks in the histology laboratory.
Benefits
Removal of paraffin
The edge of the embedding casette is slid across the heated aluminium plate; the excess paraffin runs off into a drain channel and then into a waste tray while also facilitating the scraping effect.
Display of the operating temperature
The operating temperature of +80°C is reached after three minutes and is indicated by a green LED.
Overheating protection device
An overheating protection device protects the instrument against damage from overheating.
Easy to clean and maintain
The anodised aluminium work surface is easy to clean. The waste tray can be removed and placed on the working surface allowing the paraffin in the waste tray to be heated for reuse or disposal.
