3000 EVOLUTION

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

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
