Features

• The Hypercenter XP is a computer-controlled, fluid transfer tissue processor with automated fixation, dehydration, cleaning and paraffin infiltration of tissue specimens.

• Fully Enclosed System 

• The Reagent Storage Module does not allow reagent fumes to vent into laboratory atmosphere when the Hypercenter is in operation.

• Flexible air bag which maximizes the system’s air capacity. 

• Emergency activated carbon filter is utilized as an additional safety feature only if there is excess pressure.

• Optimized Design 

• Organized capacity of 180 cassettes.

• Can be configured as either a floor model or bench-top model. 

• One Command Module can control up to 5 reaction and storage modules for processing capacity of up to 900 cassettes per load.

• Save as many as 9 customized programs. 

• Unit comes with default processing parameters available at each step of heat, vacuum, immersion time and extended drain time.

• A time-of-day clock continuously displays and is used by the instrument to calculate and set continuous, real-time processing log. 

• Software is programmed to accommodate year 2000 changes.

• Multilingual-Continuous on-screen prompts display in user choice of English, Spanish, French, Italian, German or Swedish. 

• Vacuum and positive pressure move reagents to and from the sealed specimen chamber through a single, rotary valve located in the reagent storage module.

• Second blowout of reagent at every step. 

• Two independent paraffin baths completely infiltrate the specimen with paraffin.

• Flush (purge) cycle automatically cleans the unit with heated xylene (or substitute) and then alcohol.

• Glass specimen chamber lid allows the user to see the specimens during processing without opening the sealed lid.
