Simply put: the base unit you choose will depend on the number and size of samples you want to process in the same run. The accessory products then depend on both the base unit and the size of the samples.
Altogether, there are four CosmoSonic instruments available: three types of CosmoSonic-II (Type 6, Type 12, Type 24) and one type of CosmoSonic-One. This page discusses only the three types of CosmoSonic-II.
Fundamentally, all base unit Types are similar, differing only in the size of the gear plate/tube holder and the number of gear plates accepted. In the above picture, the gear plates are blue. Certain gear plates accept the adaptors needed for holding microtubes. Select the

So which base unit should you get? This will depend on how many samples you want to run at the same time.
The following types can process the highlighted volumes and quantities, depending on the accessories purchased.

In the spots without samples, please use the same tubes, but filled with water ("dummy tubes").
