Cryostat
​MEDITE M630
​
The Cryostat M630 is extensively equipped for high-speed cryo sectioning, with powerful cooling and a high-precision, semi-automatic microtome.
The standard model comes with a specimen clamp with fine adjustment and UV disinfection.
​
Due to the ergonomic design incorporating lets of room beneath the working area, the M630 can be used in sitting and standing positions. Two fixed height adjustments are available, to enable the purchaser to configure.
​
The cooling chamber is beautifully illuminated with an adjustable LED light. The powerful cooling unit temperature goes down to -35 °C.
Inside the cooling chamber is a deep freezing rail with 15 positions for tissue samples. This includes two quick freeze positions that can cool down to 20 °C below chamber temperature and can be set separately. There is an optional electronically cooled specimen clamp that cools to -45°Ccooling the tissue sample even faster ready for sectioning. The cooling chamber has a transparent pane that is heated to avoid the formation of condensation.
​
The microtome and cooling chamber are controlled via individual control panels. They are positioned above the cooling chamber for easy access and intuitive to use.
M630 can be defrosted manually, or automatically using the timer function. The smooth stainless steel surfaces of the cooling chamber allow easy cleaning and disinfection. Condensation drains in to separate collecting vessel via the integrated drainage system.
​
The perfectly balanced handwheel is lockable to prevent unintentional movements, protecting samples and users. The horizontal feed and sample retraction are automated.
​
A fine adjustment mechanism is integrated as standard with the specimen clamp holder. The specimen clamp can be aligned horizontally and vertically and is characterized by its particular stability. The blade holder can be easily corrected using an angle mark. The blade clamp is adjustable via grids in order to use the blade precisely and to its full extent. It also has a manual guard.
​
The M630 has low energy consumption and is both resource-saving and quiet.
Blade holders for low or high profile blades and two different sizes of anti-roll guides are available.
