vacuum must provide a continuous regulated suction within the specification
limits.
Perfusion Fluid Inlet Port
The 'perfusion fluid inlet port' interfaces via a barbed connector using 3.2 mm OD,
1.6mm ID Tygon tube from the drug delivery system. Tube connections to the drug
/ control selection system must be kept to minimal length to reduce dead volume;
the tubes should also be of similar lengths.
Digital control and sensor lines
The 16 pin electrical connector enables control and communication of the
SliceMate to the 19” rack mounted controller. The SliceMate is supplied with a
custom power / signal cable that interfaces to the SliceMate thermal control
system. The connectors should be fully mated to provide a low resistance earth
bond via the connector shells.
Reference Electrode Ground
The 'reference electrode ground' is located in between the primary well and the
suction port in the brain bath. The head-stage connects to the earth via the 2mm
white socket at the front of the SliceMate using the earth lead.
