RSH

ROBOTIC SAMPLE HANDLER

The unique design of the RSH on the ARCHITECT ci 4100 * meets the productivity demands of todays clinical laboratory.

Innovative design for access to reagents, samples and supplies while system is in process Universal sample carrier accepts 5, 7 and 10 mL tubes and sample cups without adapters Large capacity of 180 samples with ability to load 36 ve-position carriers

Priority bays allow for immediate STAT processing Priority samples automatically take precedence over routine ones Intuitive indicator lights allow sample and reagent status at a glance Automated management of retest, reex and dilution testing without operator intervention
ARCHITECT Universal Sample Carrier

1. Loading samples in priority bays initiates the RSH transport robot to lift urgent samples ahead of routine workload.

2. RSH design allows for continual sample access and fully automated reex testing and dilutions.

3. Intuitive indicator lights give sample status at a glance.
