DESCRIPTION

VIP5

Designed for fast, streamlined operation, the VIP® 5 offers easy-to-use software that enables users to manage reagents, rename solutions and programs, and define cleaning cycles according to their needs.

The VIP® 5 is built to take care of other processes automatically, too. Automated reagent transfer, continuous mixing, and bottle connection check ensure smooth, flawless performance and significantly more efficient processing.

And the VIP® 5 is flexible—it allows easy addition of cassettes, even during processing. It provides complete information at a glance through a full-text display, and facilitates reagent management through cassette counter and reagent usage counter features.

Additionally, VIP® 5 cleans paraffin by degassing the oven, ensuring sanitized paraffin without the need for additional retort cleaning cycles. And its programmable water rinse virtually eliminates alcohol fumes in the retort.

Throughout, built-in computer safeguards monitor all steps taken during processing to guarantee specimen and system protection.
