Section Flattening Station - Dual Water Bath and Slide Dryer - RT to 100°C - 32 Slide Table

The Master Science Section Flattening Station has two separate floatation baths and a slide drying table in one unit, so two people or two protocols can work side by side. Each bath has a removable transparent glass dish lit from below by low-voltage lighting.

Three PID channels control the two baths and the drying table independently. Bath temperature is adjustable up to 70 °C and the drying table up to 100 °C, both within ±1 °C. The table takes 32 slides.

Key Benefits

• Two baths at different settings: the Master Science Section Flattening Station controls each tank separately.
• Even, quick warm-up: high-thermal-conductivity heating element.
• Good visibility: lit, transparent dishes.
• Simple cleaning: split-design borosilicate dishes lift out.
• Automatic schedule: weekly timer for the whole unit or any single function.

A single-bath alternative is the Master Science tissue floatation workstation.

Common Problems and How This Station Helps

How the Master Science Section Flattening Station eases section mounting:

• Queue at a single water bath: two independent baths.
• Folds and creases in sections: bath held within ±1 °C.
• Slides sliding off the hotplate: serrated, sloped table.
• Overheated wax on slides: triple overheat protection.
