MODE D'EMPLOI EG 1150 LEICA

Leica EG1150

Convenient and comfortable tissue embedding center

Living up to Life

Modern Technology for Comfortable Embedding

The new Leica EG1150 modular tissue embed

ding center incorporates two separate compo

nents, the Leica EG1150 C cold plate and the

Leica EG1150 H heated embedding module. The

independent modules offer the flexibility to

arrange embedding workflow in the direction

that best suits your laboratory.

Adjustable embedding center height

In addition to the already low, comfortable working position, now you can even adjust the work surface height for optimum ergonomics.

Left or right handed workflow

The modular system of the Leica EG1150 allows the placement of the cold plate onto either end of the heated embedding module allowing the tech nician to embed in either a right or left handed direction.

Rounded arm rests

Rounded arm rests provide a comfortable working position free from any hard pressure points on technician's arms.

Tissue cassette and mold warming trays located at the same level

No need for excessive arm movements while embedding. Tissue cassettes and molds are kept at the same level providing a comfortable workflow with minimum effort.

Position adjustable halogen light and magnifier

Bright, even illumination of the work area is provided by the position adjustable halogen lamp. A position adjustable magnifier is also available as an option to facilitate specimen orientation when embedding.

The large Peltier element cold spot is designed to assist tissue orientation even with large Super Mega Cassettes.

The new paraffin drain system prevents liquid paraffin from accumulating on the spacious work surface. Excess paraffin is drained into one of the two large heated paraffin collecting trays, both of which can be removed for emptying.

Tissue cassette and mold warming trays are interchangeable to accommodate changes in embedding workflow.

The heated, removable forceps holder is easily accessible from either side.

The Leica EG1150 C cold plate is held at a constant temperature of -5^ . The easy to load, large capacity plate can hold in excess of 70 standard cassette molds. An optional cover reduces frost build up in high humidity environments. Additionally, the cold plate can be used as a stand alone unit for pre- cooling blocks prior to sectioning.
Kuhlplatte EG1150 C

With the especially smooth-running, height-adjustable and rotary dispenser clip, paraffin can either be dispensed manually or by pushing the embedding mold against the clip. A third option, when working with large embedding molds, is to fold the dispenser clip backwards and activate the paraffin flow via the foot switch, available as an optional accessory.

New:

Spacious work surface

The large work surface area with a new, robust finish allows you to set out multiple cassettes and molds in preparation for embedding, greatly improving specimen through put.
