Description
The BP-090 is a specialized laboratory microwave offering up to 1,000 watts of power, designed to replace domestic microwaves commonly used in labs. With simple time and power-based controls, it operates similarly to a household microwave, making it easy for histologists to transition. Equipped with a powered cavity ventilation system, the BP-090 can connect to a facility’s central air handling or an approved standalone lab air system, ensuring safe, efficient fume extraction.
Applications:
Ideal for drying slides, preparing agar, heating lab materials, and performing non-corrosive staining, the BP-090 supports histology, pathology, and hospital labs of any size.
