Accuracy, reliability and efficiency are essential in the creation and tilting of tissues for laboratory analysis. Kalstein tissue embedding systems offer these features, and more, to ensure accurate and consistent results. In this article, we will take a closer look at the YR439, YR448, YR445, and YR439-1.
Model YR439 Laboratory Tissue Inclusion System
The YR439 is one of the most popular models in its class for a number of reasons. This equipment features a kerosene chamber with a capacity of 3 liters and a temperature range in various areas between 55 and 70℃. Areas include the forceps wells, kerosene melting chamber, thermal storage compartment, heated working areas and kerosene dispenser. https://www.kalstein.nl/product/tissue-embedding-center-yr439/
Temperature control accuracy is one of the most impressive specifications of this model: ±1%. It works in conjunction with the kerosene flow control, which is controlled via a touch plate and optional foot pedal. This enables precise and safe handling and is ideal for complex tissue tilting jobs.
The YR439 system also offers an innovative, fully programmable ON/OFF control that allows automatic start and stop of the system at any time of the week. This degree of automation improves laboratory workflow efficiency, and overall sample integrity is greatly enhanced.
Model YR448 Laboratory Tissue Inclusion System
For those who require cryogenic functionality in their tissue embedding system, the Model YR448 is an excellent choice. This system comes with a cryogenic module with temperature ranges from 0 to -20℃, with the optimal working temperature being approximately -10℃.
The YR448 model has cryogenic module dimensions of 315×380 mm and a working voltage of AC 220V +/- 10 % 50 Hz (standard model); AC110V +/- 10% 60Hz. The power consumption is 300W, making it energy efficient while maintaining robust performance in terms of tissue inclusion performance. https://www.kalstein.nl/product/biological-tissue-freeze-embedding-machine-6-liters-with-cooling-plate-yr448/
Model YR445 Tissue Inclusion System for the Laboratory
Slightly more advanced, the YR445 offers a kerosene chamber capacity of 4 liters and goes even further by including a 4.5 liter thermal storage compartment. The achievable temperature ranges from room temperature to 85℃, providing more flexibility and breadth for laboratory procedures. https://www.kalstein.nl/product/tissue-inclusion-center-yr445/
This model also has a cryogenic module, with an ambient temperature range to -20℃. The optimum working temperature is approximately -15 ℃ and provides a significant safety margin due to its time delay protection system.
Laboratory Tissue Inclusion System Model YR439-1
Finally, the Model YR439-1 has advanced features that can accommodate high-volume workloads. It has an amazing 6-liter kerosene chamber and temperature range of TA-85℃. The temperature control accuracy is ±1%, just like the other models in the line, ensuring maximum control during all procedures. https://www.kalstein.nl/product/inclusion-center-yr439-1/
In summary, each Kalstein tissue inclusion system is designed with advanced technology to deliver unmatched efficiency and precision in the laboratory. The YR439, YR448, YR445, and YR439-1 models meet the demands of a demanding and wide field of work, offering reliable solutions that can be adapted to any laboratory.
