This reminds me of the Anti-Mass Spectrometer from Half-Life:

Scientist 1: (feedback)"Testing, testing. (coughs) Everything seems to be in order."

Scientist 2: "All right, everyone! Lens Calibration is complete! Generators are online and running above required levels. Can I get confirmation that the emitter correctly aligned on the subject?"

Redstone Ned: "Affirmative. Point of impact is within two nanometers of designation."

Scientist 2: "Excellent! We are ready to begin!"

Scientist 3: "All right, Gordon. your suit should keep you comfortable through all this. The specimen will be delivered to you in a few moments. If you would be so good as to climb up and start the rotors, we can bring the anti-mass spectrometer to 80% and hold it there until the carrier arrives."

(Rotors Activate)

Scientist 3: "Very good. We'll take it from here."

Talking Scientist: "Application of electromagnetic fragmentation procedure on specimen. Initiate phase 1."

(One of the scientists flick the Phase 1 Lever and the beam starts to light)

Scientist 1: "Power to stage 1 emitters in 3,2,1." (Emitters activate) "I'm seeing predictable phase arrays."

Redstone Ned: "Phase 1 completed. All systems operating with acceptable ranges."

Talking Scientist: "Good! Initiate phase 2."

(The same scientist flicks the Phase 2 Lever with the beam being more stronger)

Scientist 1: "Stage 2 emitters activating...now." (Emitters activate)

Redstone Ned: "Phase 2 completed. All systems remain stable."

Talking Scientist: "Alright then... Turn on the big green light."

(The Heavy Weapons Guy flicks the Green Phase Lever and the Green Lighthouse outside activates, then makes a goofy smile with a thumbs up)

Scientist 3: "Gordon, we cannot predict how long the system can operate at this level, nor how long the readings will take. Please, work as quickly as you can."

Scientist 1: "Overhead capacitors to 105%. Uh, it's probably not a problem, probably, but I'm showing a small discrepancy in... well, no, it's well within acceptable bounds again. Sustaining sequence."

Scientist 3: "I've just been informed that the sample is ready, Gordon. It should be coming up to you any moment now. Look to the delivery system for your specimen."

(The specimen arrives)

Scientist 3: "Go ahead Gordon, slot the carrier into the analysis port. Standard insertion for nonstandard specimen."

(Gordon pushes the cart into the machine. Electricity begins arcing out of control all around the machine.)

Redstone Ned: “Um... Lower chamber temperatures are overcoming sustainable levels!”

Talking Scientist: “Alright, shut it down! Shut it down!”

(Electricity & lasers burst everywhere)

Scientist 1: “WOAH!!! Oh dear!"

Scientist 3: "Gordon, get away from the-Shut it down! Someone get him out of there & shut it down!"

Scientist 1: "Shutting down-no, attempted shutdown. It's not-it's not, it's not shutting down! We-we can't contain it!"

Scientist 2: "Get everyone out of here!"

Scientist 3: "LOOK OUT!!!"

(A huge explosion rocks the spectrometer, and the intercom cuts off in a scream.)
