Three variants of X-300 fluxers are available, depending on the number of
samples that can be processed in a single cycle:
 X-300M – “Mono”, is a single station fluxer (one sample)
 X-300D – “Duo”, is a double station fluxer (two sample)
 X-300T – “Trio”, is a triple station fluxer (three samples)
and it is possible to upgrade from one version to the next by adding one or two
expansion kits (p/n KP8000A), available from Katanax.
The X-300 comes pre-loaded with various fusion methods that can be used as is,
or can be customized. All fusion methods can be saved, renamed, deleted or
copied, just like computer files. Only the preset methods are protected to avoid
accidental overwriting.
Upon turning the instrument on, the furnace will start heating up to prepare for
the first fusion cycle. If left idle for an extended period of time, the furnace will
automatically turn off. (Holding temperature and automatic shutoff features are
further discussed in the Global parameters section, at page 43.)
