Hitachi MC450 Blood Cell Washing Centrifuge

Automatic centrifuges for Coomb's test and blood cell washing. Automatic microcomputer control substantially shortens blood cell washing time—as many as 24 samples in three minutes (washing three times). Sized for convenient counter-top placement.

Features

* The overflow method is used for the washing process to improve corpuscle washing potential. (This is the washing method in which physiological salt water is injected into the test tube again after centrifugation so that some physiological salt water will overflow.)
* Due to the use of a new-type distributor, attachment and separation of test tubes have become easier.
* The drain cover and chamber can be dismantled easily, so cleaning has become simple.
* Because decanting rotational speed can be set precisely (7 stages), it is
possible to increase the degree of corpuscle dryness through adjustment of physiological salt water remaining after termination.
* The new door interlocking mechanism further enhances safety.
* Termination-announcing sound can be chosen from among five kinds of melodies and buzzers.
* This is a mark affixed to products in conformance with EU requirements for mechanical and electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility.
