ASP - Model DeCap Pro -Decapper

Automatic, compact, bench-top

Our DeCap Pro is a compact bench-top device for automated decapping of sample tubes. Tubes in an analyzer rack are put in the inlet channel; tubes stay in the rack during decapping. The inlet channel holds up to 15 racks that are automatically processed. Racks with tubes that have been decapped are pushed into the outlet channel. Removed caps are guided to an outlet for collection of biohazard disposal with a detachable chute.

For specimens with pull-off caps

DeCap PRO processes tubes with pull caps only. It is designed for 100 mm tubes. Smaller tubes can be handled by means of an adapter tube which stays in the rack during analysis. Models for 75 mm only tubes are available on request.

More safety for your staff, with high speed

DeCap Pro reduces the possibility of Repetitive Strain Injury and combines safety and simplicity of operation with efficient and hygienic tube handling for laboratory staff. Occupying a minimum of bench space, DeCap Pro can process nearly fifty tubes per minute and always keeps up with following process steps.

The use of DeCap Pro for decapping of sample tubes helps resolving bottlenecks in the Pre-Analytics and supports the uninterrupted supply of analytic areas with specimens. Using the DeCap PRO is remarkably easy: place the racks in the inlet channel and press the START button. The DeCap PRO operates fully automatically and unattended. More racks can be added to the inlet channel or removed from the outlet channel at any time without stopping the instrument.

DeCap Pro’s robust and simple design guarantees high reliability and uptime. Daily maintenance is minimal, consisting only of the routine cleaning job.
