ATS CLINICAL FLAME PHOTOMETER (HPFP)Ô

___________________________________________________________________________

 

The ATS (HPFP)Ô Clinical Flame Photometers are optimized to provide a fast and accurate analysis of Na/K as well as Li in clinical samples. The main features of these instruments are:

Fast Single Channel Analyser !

  • 6 seconds fixed reading cycle,
  • Autosampler station with STAT position (optional)
  • Lithium analysis accurate and simple (optional).
  • Digital controls for auto zero/auto cal and with memory for one calibration.

  • RS232 and ATS software options for connection to a PC Data Station.

User's safety assured with:
  • Automatic electronic flame ignition.
  • Automatic multiple flame failure control.

 

THE ATS AUTOMATED CLINICAL FLAME PHOTOMETER SYSTEM

The new Swiss design ATS 20934 Clinical Flame Photometer System combines a modern, user friendly flame photometer with an autodilutor and an autosampler to offer a fast, easy, automated and safe analysis procedure. The autodilutor uses a piston type micro-syringe for high precision volumetric dispensing. As only micro sample volumes are required for an analysis, this system is especially suited for pediatric and geriatric applications.

ATS ECONOMIC CLINICAL FLAME PHOTOMETER

The ATS 20917 Economic Clinical Flame Photometer meets the requirements of smaller laboratories as well as of laboratories with few analyses. It features simplified sample preparation procedures and analysis routine. Due to its extended straight segment of the analytical curve it offers outstanding analytical accuracy and does not require a separate electronic lineariser.

Measuring Ranges:

Na: 0 to 200 mmol/L:
K : 0 to 200 mmol/L
Li : 0 to 6 mmol/L.

 

Linearity:

Na 115 - 170 mmol/L +/- 2 mmol/L at 140 mmol/L
K I - 6.0 mmol/L +/- 0.2 mmol/L at 4.0 mmol/L
Li 0 - 3.0 mmol/L +/- 0.2 mmol/L at 1.0 mmol/L

The ATS/20917 Economic Clinical Flame Photometer is outfitted with a piston-type precision autodilutor.

 

ATS CLINICAL AUTOMATIC HIGH PERFORMANCE FLAME PHOTOMETER (HPFP)Ô

The ATS/20946 Clinical Automatic High Performance Flame Photometer (HPFP)Ô, model ATS 200MKI for Sodium (Na) and Potassium (K) determination, is a more sophisticated and automated instrument. It has a compact design and incorporates the following: automatic electronic ignition with triple gas fail safe device; soft-key selection for sensitivity range, read time, decimal point and automatic filter selector; functions indicated by LED display. It also has an Auto-Zero and Auto-Cal, memory push button selectors and is fitted with an RS 232 computer interface kit to connect to a PC 386 or higher computer compatibles. It has a high precision, built-in dilutor and a printer that prints out the complete analysis sequence data.
