The Sakura Tissue-Tek TEC 5 is a two-module drop-in console system designed for efficiency and customization, even for high-volume laboratories. Tissue Tek TEC 5 provides a compact and single workstation for specimen positioning and paraffin embedding.
The TEC 5 system can be customized according to user preference, with modules arranged left-to-right or right-to-left for optimal workflow. Other advances to optimize operation include: a finger touchpad and optional foot pedal for precise control of paraffin flow; Great flexibility.
To support efficient and optimized performance, the Tissue-Tek TEC 5 system provides temperature control in critical areas for even conditioning. Separate temperature-controlled left and right heat storage chambers allow the use of base molds as paraffin baths or incubators. The system's efficient cooling system maintains temperature levels even when the board is full.
Other Sakura Tissue-Tek TEC 5 tissue-embedded console system features include six easy-to-reach forceps wells, an ample cooling zone for approximately 60 specimen blocks, a panel displaying the temperature of all heating and cooling zones, easy-to-clean surfaces, and no Hidden corners to catch paraffin or debris. Additionally, the Tissue-Tek TEC 5 system uses an environmentally safe refrigerant and a quiet compressor to reduce noise fatigue.
