5. Operation
5.6 Permanently installed infiltration programs
• The replacement cycle is defined by the ethanol concentration threshold value for the first ethanol measured by the
density sensor.
The ethanol threshold value has been set to 55 % by the manufacturer and can be adjusted in 1 % increments between
50 and 60 %.
• The ethanol concentrations shown are the initial concentrations that apply for installation of the tissue processor.
Reagent positioning by autorotation programs
5.6.1 Programs with automatic ethanol rotation
All of the permanently installed infiltration protocols described in this chapter have to be validated before use,
i.e. tissue processing using patient tissue for diagnostics, by the laboratory itself based on tissues that are not
intended for diagnostics and in accordance with local or regional accreditation requirements.
Autorotation programs cannot be renamed, edited or deleted by the user.
To start an autorotation program, it must be saved in the list of "FAVORITES". See also Chapter 5.5.3
