Cytogenetic Drying Chamber

Quality of samples preparations for chromosome analysis depends largely on the environmental conditions in which the final evaporation of the methyl acetate or ethyl acetate fixative takes place. The combined effects of temperature and relative humidity have a noticeable effect on the quality of the metaphase.

Given that temperature and humidity are in constant variation, not only from season to season, but also throughout each day, it is easy to understand the requirement for a system that enables cytogenetists to work always under standardised conditions.

WEIBER Cytogenetic Drying Chamber has been specifically designed to minimize all problems related to those critical parameters, temperature and humidity, which are very unstable. It allows the technician to set and control both temperature and humidity, thus defining the ideal working conditions for chromosomes. WEIBER Cytogenetic Test Chamber provides the optimum controlled temperature and humidity environment for achieving ideal chromosome spreading results.

Special Features:

• Full view polycarbonate door.
• Upward sliding door hinged with silicon gaskets.
• Facilitates accurate and repeatable chromosome spreading.
• Door design provides easy access to workspace, and maximum visibility.
• Quickly reaches test conditions minimizing stability time.
• Baffling minimizes the effects of airflow in the side preparation area.
• Microprocessor temperature/humidity programmer.
• Computer communications, networking, data-logging software.
• Colour touch panel.
• HMI+PLC in one unit
• Door open and Door close alarm system.
• Circular chart recorder can be added on demand.
• Refrigeration Unit:
• Less use of Electrical and Mechanical Components on the Top and Bottom of Chamber - Provides easy maintenance of chamber, increases durability because of proper air circulation; cooling systems kept at bottom of the chamber to provide proper environment for compressor.
• Heated Vewing Window - Heated viewing window allows viewing fog generated and proper viewing of the test sample.
• Circulation Fan with Variable Speed -
  
  • Electrical efficiency
    Variable speed motor saves money by reducing energy bills, as it consumes less electricity than conventional motor.
  • Cooling Efficiency
    Variable speed enables gaining air conditioning efficiency or SEER.
  • Air Quality
    Variable speed motor helps clean the air efficiently. When the fan is in constant operation (indicated by the "Fan" setting on thermostat), the motor continues to slowly circulate air, allowing filters to capture more contaminants.
  • Humidity Control
    Variable speed motor combined with a Thermostat allows controlling the amount of humidity.
  • Quieter Operation
    Variable speed blower motor are significantly quieter thanits single-speed counterpart.
• Air Cooled Refrigerated System - Air cooled refrigeration system offer various benefits like
  
  • low fan power consumption
  • resistant to corrosion and freezing conditions
  • requires very low maintenance
  • Guaranteed long life operation
• PCRC Sheet Body - Powder coated steel body assures corrosion resistant chamber and allows working of chamber at high temperature applications.
• Digital Output � Target and Performance Output of the chamber operations are in digital format(digits) giving precise reading.
