Product description

Fluorine-coated paraffin floatation bath PS-52 with capacity for 68 slides, temperature control, ideal for histology labs.

The Sakura Finetek PS-52 Paraffin Section Floatation Bath is designed for histology and pathology laboratories requiring efficient slide preparation for paraffin sections. Key technical features include:

  • Fluorine-coated floatation plate facilitating smooth handling and effortless retrieval of glass slides, essential for delicate tissue processing workflows in molecular diagnostics and histological analysis.
  • Large floatation area accommodates up to 68 slides, enhancing throughput in biomanufacturing sample prep and biotechnology labs focused on high-volume slide processing.
  • Ergonomic design with access from three directions, enabling easy slide retrieval and reducing the risk of sample contamination during fluorescence staining or live-cell imaging slide preparation.
  • Integrated temperature control system via an easy-to-use operation panel allows precise temperature adjustment, critical for paraffin section spreading and maintaining slide integrity for downstream imaging and microscopy applications.
  • Robust dimensions of 478 mm width, 430 mm depth, and 122 mm height, and a lightweight design weighing approximately 5 kg, making it suitable for benchtop placement in clinical diagnostics and bioprocessing labs.
  • Rated for use with standard AC 100V power supply at 50/60 Hz and 2.3 A current, ensuring compatibility with standard laboratory electrical infrastructure.

This unit is a used model sold as-is, with functionality potentially differing from new models. It includes a warranty covering defects or operational failures reported within 10 days of delivery, ensuring reliability in routine laboratory workflows involving paraffin embedding and section floatation essential for synthetic biology and gene editing research. The PS-53 is the updated model series for those requiring enhanced features.

Ideal for researchers and technicians engaged in biotechnology, histopathology, and clinical microscopy, this floatation bath supports precise and repeatable paraffin section expansion, critical for high-quality slide preparation in molecular and cellular biology laboratories.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
