VACUETTE® ESR Systems

Cost effectiveness is an essential aspect of daily recurrent routine activities on the ward, in laboratories or in the doctor's practice. In order to increase efficiency on a long-term basis, a costeffective centralisation of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate analysis still remains an important step.

The NEW VACUETTE® erythrocyte sedimentation rate analysers, which are especially user-friendly, can help. The new generation unites the well-established advantages of the existing analysers with whole range of additional innovations which guarantee time-saving standardised analysis of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate.

See for yourself the advantages of the new ESR analysers

•Simplified menu sequence on LCD-screen increases user comfort
•Integrated plastic cover protects measuring channels from dirt* (SRS 20/II and SRS 100/II)
•Printer is directly integrated into the analyser* (SRS 20/II and SRS 100/II)
•Higher performance motor is practically silent
•Increased tube throughput in shorter time made possible by predicted values
•Results automatically corrected to 18°C (reference temperature)
•Remaining analysis time is displayed
•Quality control program to guarantee correct measurement results* (SRS 20/II and SRS 100/II)
•Modern innovative design of analyser
 
Proven Quality
The new generation of analysers still enable insertion of VACUETTE® ESR-tubes when an analysis is already in process. Since each tube is analysed seperately, no delays are caused. The closed system makes the analysis hygienic and safe.

The 1-hour Westergren value is available after just 30 minutes, the 2-hour value after 60 minutes. This saves time and optimises the working procedure, since it is no longer necessary to read the values after exactly an hour.

Before analysis begins, the fill volume of every tube is checked automatically. The sedimentation rate is measured permanently via infrared sensors. The SRS 100/II and SRS 20/II analysers can be easily connected to a PC or laboratory information system (LIS).

 

Generation II - ideal for every application
The new generation of ESR readers still have three variations, identifiable from the previous generation by the addition of the Roman numeral II as a suffix to the product description (Sed Rate Screener and Sed Rate Timer).
