Remanufactured Leica CM 1900 Cryostat

Instrument Description

The Leica CM 1900 cryostat is a powerful cryostat that features distinctive cooling systems with two separate compressors. These two compressors regulate the cryochamber which cools down to -35°C and the specimen clamp temperature down to -50°C.

Comes equipped with a specimen cooling feature which assists in easier sectioning of fatty specimens and a programmable automatic hot gas defrost function. A two-speed motorized coarse feed moves the specimen toward or away from knife quickly. When using the slower forward coarse feed in conjunction with a rocking motion of the handwheel, the operator can quickly trim away excess OCT and achieve full face of the specimen with ease. The section thickness settings range from 1 to 60µm.

The easy to use control panel offers a self-explanatory function key with an easy to read LED display that prevents operating errors. A slot covering on the microtome prevents contaminated section debris from entering the microtome.
