3000 Evolution is an interferential filter photometer,
completely managed by microprocessors. It performs photometric measurements and
processes them according to programs with parameters that can be entered by the
operator. It executes, in a rapid and precise manner, most of important
chemistry and hematology tests.
Particularly, the following determinations
can be carried out:
- ABSORBANCE
- END-POINT
- KINETICS
-
FIXED-TIME
- MULTISTANDARD
- DIFFERENTIAL
Disposable macro and
micro cuvettes (glass or plastic), with an optical path of 1 cm, can be used by
simply removing the flow cell from the reading compartment and placing it on the
right-side one. Six filters are included in the instrument. The selection of the
interferential filter is automatic, with powered handling managed by a
microprocessor.
This feature makes reading easier and eliminates filter
selection errors that may occur in instruments which have a manual selection.
INSTRUMENT
DESCRIPTION
OPTICS
The optical part is very
sophisticated: it consists of a high-power halogen lamp (20 W) whose light beam
is centered by a quartz lens, thus allowing a high accuracy in measurements even
when reduced-volume cuvettes are used.
INCUBATOR
A
10-position dry incubator which can contain both square and cylindrical cuvettes
allow the sample incubation before reading. The temperature of the incubator is
equal to the one of the reading cell and can be regulated from 20 °C to 40 °C.
The execution of the analyses and instrument programming are simple and
performed by means of a keyboard, following the instructions shown on the
display. This display also shows the status and error/fault messages. The
analytical results are directly displayed in the measuring units selected by the
current program.
LANGUAGE The language of instructions
can be selected between English and Italian. Two other languages are avalaible
on request. The instrument is provided with a 24-column thermal printer that can
print analytical results as well as program parameters. All printed information
is sent to a serial RS-232 standard output. The printer can be disconnected and
data logged in PC. An advanced software guides and controls all operations
carried out by the user. An acoustic signal further helps the user, by emitting
a sound of a different tone from the usual one, it means you pushed the wrong
key.
MEMORY Up to 120 programs can be stored in the
EEPROM inside the instrument. The instrument is supplied already programmed.
Instrument is equipped with non volatile result memory. Up to 400 results can be
stored inside, for later or end-of-day recalling. Result may be recalled by
Test, Date or ID.Sample ID number is selectable and displayed before
testing.
The instrument is entirely
re-programmable
