Additionally instruments will not be accepted without prior authorisation and have been certified as being uncontaminated with any material that may be hazardous to the health of service personnel. Returns Authorisation and Decontamination Certificate forms can be obtained by contacting Campden Instruments. 1. Introduction... - Page 3 In some countries this may be a statutory requirement. Your local Health and Safety Executive (or equivalent) will be able to advise on this matter. 1.1 Overview The 7600 Tissue Bath Cooler Unit is intended for use with the Campden Instruments Range vibrating microtomes. Unfixed brain slices sectioned at 4 C give better tissue preservation and are viable for longer in-vitro recordings.

- Page 5 Electrical Inlet Coolant Connection Ports Fig. 1 Tissue bath assembly 2.2 Temperature Controller Set-up Before connecting the temperature controller to a mains supply, the unit must be set for your particular voltage supply. The voltage is set by prising out the fuse holder drawer and re-inserting it such that the voltage legend for your supply is aligned with the mark on the inlet moulding.
- Page 6 (Campden Instruments model 7600-HTP). The bath should be then ‘wrung’ onto the cooling head to ensure a good heat transfer path and the screws fitted...
- Page 7 and tightened evenly. Do not over-tighten the screws. The heat-conducting compound should be applied in an even layer sufficiently thick to ensure full area contact. (A thin layer of compound will transfer heat more efficiently than a thick layer). The bath may be autoclaved at 140 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes. All steels (including the so-called stainless steels) will corrode (rust) if left immersed in physiological saline/a.c.s.f./buffer solutions, the rate of corrosion will increase as the solution evaporates and the corroding concentrate increases.
