Bulk Inlet Module
The Bulk Inlet module collects sample tubes loaded in batch bins and transfers them into
sample tube carriers for processing on the system. Two Bulk Inlet bins operate
independently, allowing for continuous feed of sample tubes.
The user selects which bin they wish to use, unlocking the bin by pressing the green Unlock
button and pushing back the right or left bin cover. Sample tubes with manufacturer caps
are loaded into the bin in batches, eliminating the need to transfer tubes to racks for
loading. Sample tubes are checked for the correct tube orientation and are transferred into
awaiting sample carriers.
The Bulk Inlet uses the same priority loading system as the Inlet, allowing the user to
define the relative priority of the Inlet racks versus the right or left bin of the Bulk Inlet.
Caution
The Bulk Inlet supports plastic BD, Greiner and Sarstedt sample tubes with the
original manufacturers cap intact (vacuum not released). Refer to the Power Express
Published specifications for specific tubes supported.
Glass sample tubes are not supported with the Bulk Inlet module.
