Rack loading

The

 ABX PENTRA 80

 will allow continuous loading of sample tube racks during all phases of

operation. Racks are placed and then drawn onto a mechanism, which allows the mixing and
sampling of each tube within the rack. Micro-switches allow detection of the racks when
placed in the loading tray.

Fig. 6–6

 Tube height detection and correction

The Sample tube is detected and the tube height is adjusted by the presence of 2 rolling de-
tectors within the mechanism (see

Fig. 6–6, 

page 6-5). Sensors are also present within the

mechanism to index the rack position at any time during its presence through the loader.
