Inspired by:
Antonio Canova (Possagno, November,1,1757 – Venice, October,13,1822) was an talian sculptor,
considered the greatest exponent of Neoclassicism.
His art and his genius had a great and decisive influence in the sculpture of the era and was identified as
the "poet" of the ideal feminine beauty: it is enough to recall his works inspired by the
Three Graces
and
the
The bathing Venus.
He studied how to follow the techniques of the ancient Greek sculptors: from drawing to sketch in baked
clay, earth or wax, materializing at once the real shape of the work.
Another special feature of his talent was work dressing, always refined at best, giving a gloss effect, that
accentuated their natural and splendid beauty; a beauty radiant of purity, according to the standards of the
most orthodox classicism, the representation of the idealized, universal and eternal beauty.
Antonio Canova worked for popes, kings, emperors and princes from all over the world, and was under the
influence and charm of the seventeenth-century sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the undisputed master of
the Baroque style.
n his sculptures he used to use the white marble that, with incredible skill, was able to make smooth and graceful.
The anatomical forms of his works are perfectly unique, the gesture motion always contained and measured, and this feature is shown in
one of his most famous sculptures: Cupid and Psyche.

1.0 PREFACE
1.1 Destination of use
Canova embedding module is a modern workstation for embedding histological specimens
in paraffin. It is equipped with an electronic system for the constant working temperature
control. IVD certified. Professional use of product.
Designed and built for embedding histological specimens in paraffin blocks, Canova
embedding center is intended for use in Anatomic Pathology laboratories for the following
tasks:
-
Melt solid paraffin and keep it liquid at pre-set temperatures
-
Fill the embedding molds with liquid paraffin, taken from the dispenser
-
Preserve the cassettes with specimens at the pre-set temperature.
The reading of this manual and the maintenance are very important for the product use in
order to avoid dangerous situations.
The operators shall be adequately trained about its use and must observe all safety rules
and its use limits.
Instrument maintenance, due to trouble or malfunctioning, shall be performed only by
trained and authorized Diapath S.p.A. staff.
The instrument complies with the rules CISPR 11 Class A: in case of domestic use, it may
cause radio interferences. In this case, it is necessary a measurement and mitigation of
such interference.
Before installing the instrument, perform an analysis of electromagnetic interferences.
Do not use the device near sources of strong electromagnetic radiations, such as radio
frequency generators. In this case the radiations may interfere with the normal instrument
functioning.
Instrument has been projected according to the legislative decree 332/00 of 08
th
September
2000 “Accomplishment of 98/79/CE directive of 27
th
October 1998 concerning in vitro
diagnostic medical devices” respecting electromagnetic compatibility rules:
Directive 2007/47/CEE concerning the update of directives 93/42/CEE on medical
devices 98/79/CEE and on in vitro medical devices, enter into force on 21/03/2010
with Legislative Decree 25/2010.
