[Histonet] RE: VIP 1000

[Tony Reilly]

Hi Tanya

A number of years ago I had a fume hood which had very expensive disposable filters.  I approached the company that serviced and calibrated our fume extraction equipment and they were able to manufacture permanent filter cartridges to suit our needs.  From then on at a much lower price we purchased activated carbon to replace and refill the filters as required.  Not quite the same problem but could be an alternative fix.

Regards
Tony

Subject: [Histonet] VIP 1000

To go along with my last question, does anyone know where I could get charcoal filters for the VIP 1000 tissue processor? I have a letter from 2002 from Sakura saying parts for this will probably only be available for 2 more years, so that's only 10 years ago,..........!! Assuming if I can't get filters, I can't run it anyway?!
