The analyzer consists of two main components, the hardware for image capturing (scanner) and the Liquid
Management system.
The fl ow chamber is specially developed to allow for the analysis of a defi ned volume of cell suspension. The
Liquid Management system is responsible for staining the sample as well as for fi lling and cleaning the fl ow
chamber and liquid feed system.
The volumes of sample and dye, as well as specifi c cleaning solutions required for each cleaning routine, are
precisely controlled via the syringe module with the 8-way distribution valve. The individual components of the
Liquid Management system are easily accessible to allow for trouble-free maintenance and control.
