Power Supply: 110 or 220 v / 60 or 50 Hz

Description / Use

From an open primary sample tube, PACE automatically fills and thermally seals both ends of CBS™ High Security 0.3 or 0.5 mL straws – which can be pre-identified. PACE is the ideal CBS™ machine for managing medium- or large-scale collection protocols. PACE is compatible with CBS™ High Security straws that are pre-identified with barcodes and/or alphanumerical codes, and those that are not yet identified. The system includes a filling and sealing unit and a control box.

General Characteristics

The throughput of straws is fully dependent on the protocol (e.g. number of straws filled per primary tube and the number of different biological products).
Setup, maintenance and shutdown: 15 minutes per day.

All potentially contaminated parts can be cleaned with ethanol or non-corrosive decontamination fluids.

The PACE system can be placed on the laboratory bench or under laminar flow with sterile straws and filling tubing and only needs power supply.

Technical Specifications

PACE – L x W x H: 380 x 300 x 370 mm – Weight: 25 kg

Control box – L x W x H: 410 x 365 x 155 mm – Weight: 14 kg

Power supply: 110 or 220 V / 60 or 50 Hz

A PACE can be configured for CBS™ 0.3 or 0.5 mL straws.

Description / Use

From an open primary sample tube, MAPI automatically fills CBS™ 0.3 or 0.5 mL straws, thermally seals both ends, prints bar codes and/or alphanumerical identification on the jacket and in-line validates the process by immediate bar code reading.

The MAPI system consists of the filling robot and its control box, a special ink-jet type printer and a PC with the MAPI pilot software. The automate is placed on a special laboratory bench at ergonomical height.

General Characteristics

The throughput of straws is fully dependent on the protocol (e.g. number of straws filled per primary tube and number of different biological products).
Setup, maintenance and shutdown: 15 minutes per day. All potentially contaminated parts can be cleaned with ethanol or non-corrosive decontamination fluids. The ink-jet printing system requires active evacuation of its solvent vapors.

MAPI Pilot Software

The MAPI pilot software is installed on the PC provided with the system to pilot the machine cycle of the MAPI system: distribution, filling, sealing, printing and re-reading of straws. The code to be printed on the straw can be either a bar code read from the primary tube, keyboard entered or programmed fixed text.
