Coatron A4

Features

• System
  Ultraviolet light (400 nm). The measurement amplifi cation is adapted Photometric measurement principle with highresolution 4-channel optics, automatically to the methods used. Extraneous and scattered light energy is absorbed.
  High-precision XYZ pipetting system with liquid level sensor
  Long living and fl exible Cap Piercing needle for primary
  tubes such as BD Vaccutainer® or Sarstedt Monovette®.
  Integrated ID-barcode reader
  Bi-directional Interface for PC-Link to LIS.
  Optional trolley to enlarge the waste management
  Integrated graphical thermal printer
  Heated and cooled positions for reagents
  Integrated drawers for consumables
• Software
  Approved and highly accurate detection algorithm based on optical density. The clotting time is defi ned at the turning point of reaction.
  An intuitive TECO familiar graphical user interface with „Plug and Go” feeling.
  Multi language dialogue. (English, German and other)
  Random access scheduler. Profi les can be performed as batch or selective.
  Positive sample identifi cation (ID and rack position) either manual or with barcode scanner
  Fast and easy processing of STAT samples
  Free programmable test protocols to change or adapt new tests
  Calculation of activity %, INR, Ratio, g/L, mg/dL and more.
  Calibration curve can be identifi ed with up to 6 points per test. The results can be calculated with regression line analysis or linear interpolation.
  Single or double determinations
  Simple fi rmware update
• Special Functions
  Automatic plasma dilutions up to 1:100
  Automatic cleaning cycles
  Automatic test calibration routines
  Automatic quality control
  Automatic or manual printout
  Automatic test skip, if reagent run out.
  Quality control according to Westgard rules *
  Result traceability *
  Patient monitoring for long time periods *
  Reaction curve monitoring *
• Economic
  Half volume procedures resulting in 50% cost savings.
  Reagent dead volume is below 300 μL
  Very economic consumption of rinse and cleaning solution.
  Cuvette with no mixing bars, etc.
  All critical system parameters are monitored and make the instrument nearly free of service.
