Leica ASP300 S - Automated Vacuum Tissue Processor

Leica ASP300 S - Vacuum Tissue Processor
Freestanding unit - 230-240 V/50-60 Hz


The Leica ASP300 S is a freestanding, fully-
enclosed vacuum tissue processor for pro-
grammable processing of histological tissue
specimens in the fields of pathology and
clinical histology.
The instrument features 3 pressure/vacuum
options (pressure & vacuum, pressure only,
vacuum only) as well as further option of
processing under ambient conditions.
Processing temperatures are programmable
for each individual step (10 reagent stations
and three paraffin wax baths). The instrument
provides three cleaning stations plus an op-
tional connection for an external cleaning
station. The 4.5-liter processing retort is
made of electropolished stainless steel for
easy cleaning with a contact-free optical
sensor to check the fluid level.
Retort capacity for up to 300 standard
cassettes when using metal baskets or 252
standard cassettes when using the microwave
resistant basket set for ASP300 S (optional
accessory). A selection of four further
cleaning programs, which can be customized
by the operator, are available.
An easy-to-use remote reagent handling sys-
tem can drain and refill reagent bottles from
bulk containers via the retort and a hose
plugged into the processor module.
The 3-step retort draining system is tailored
to minimize reagent carry-over.
A multi-language user interface combined with
a new graphical program display allows even
junior operators to quickly become familiar
with the system. Ease of use is supported
further by direct-access on-line help cover-
ing each individual processing step.
In addition laboratory-specific custom help
(or SOP for GLP) can be installed by the user.
The quick-start feature (from 'Favorites'
screen) allows the user to access the in-
strument without loosing valuable time.
Additional features and functionalities of
this state-of-the-art processor include:

• RemoteCare - optional remote diagnostic via internet interface
• User access control and monitoring via multiple-step password protection
• Large, high-quality color LCD touchscreen, solvent-resistant
• Intelligent user interface (protecting against programming and operation errors)
• Intelligent Reagent Management System - RMS (can be switched ON/OFF)
• Export function of RMS data to standard spreadsheet programs (Excel or others)
• Labels for reagent bottles with 'reagent group' color coding for different reagent types and concentrations
• Microwave-resistant plastic baskets for cassettes
• Powerful stirrer unit for efficient infiltration and even reagent temperatures throughout the retort
• "Fast" infiltration protocols for urgent biopsies
• Funnel for splash-free filling of the reagent bottles
• Efficient paraffin wax cleaning system
• Programmable delay of "finish time" and "start time"
• Skip-step / Add-step function (programs can be edited while in progress)
• Lock mode prevents unauthorized access to any functions or operations of the instrument
• 2-Phase fume control system: condenser to remove solvents from air inside the ins- trument plus activated carbon filter and optional exhaust air hose
• Remote alarm connection
• Auto-protection against overheating and overpressure
• Sophisticated specimen features after power failure - automatic processing recovery
• Full protection against cross-contamination of incompatible reagents
• Intelligent specimen protection feature
• Quality control feature (system monitoring) including performance check (pump age, carbon filter age, rotary valve performance) and system performance on station level (reagent age monitoring, warning thresholds)
• Serial port
• External printer connection
• 3.5 inch floppy disk drive
• Selectable buzzer volume (alarms)
• Design, materials and workmanship in compliance with CE, UL , c- UL , VDE standards.
