AUTOMATED MULTIPLE TEST PROCESSOR WITH. MULTIPLE STAMP PUMPS

摘要

An automated multiple-sample processor for fluid samples includes a plurality of piston pumps which have a sample opening, a cylindrical housing and an axially displaceable piston and which are removably mounted in a support frame. The two spiral springs are both designed either as extension springs or as compression springs. In the case the two spiral springs are provided as the extension springs with a release lever in a first installation position, the triggering of the release lever results in the piston being pushed into the cylindrical housing. In the case the two spiral springs are provided as the compression springs with the release lever in a second installation position, which is rotated by 180° with respect to the first installation position, the triggering of the release lever results in the piston being pushed out of the cylindrical housing.
