Duo Photometer DP 200

The Duo Photometer determines the following parameters Haemoglobin, Haematocrit, Erythrocytes.

The Duo Photometer is characterised by an extraordinary high accuracy of the test results. It is assured primarily by the measuring principle, which is based upon the reliable wet-chemical photometric method. Continuous inspections by independent reference institutions (INSTAND and DGKL) ensure the user a constant high quality of the device and reagent. The reagent is ready for use and supplied in round cuvettes. Only the sample needs to be added.

Size: 195x100x45 mm
Weight: 0,4 kg
Wavelength: 546 nm
RS232C interface
Mains or battery-operated
Haemotology mobile laboratory   Reagents and Controls

The carrying case contains all required accessories and guarantees the user’s mobility at any time.

The red blood pigment, Haemoglobin (HB) is a protein with iron content which is responsible for the transportation of oxygen in the bloodstream. It serves the purpose to monitor risk groups for iron deficiency, such as pregnant women, toddlers, blood donors, haemodialysis patients, and sportswomen. The number of red blood cells is determined by measuring the Erythrocytes (ERY). Low values are determined as soon as anaemias are existent. They cause a decline of physical fitness.The determination of Haematocrit (HCT) indicates the percentage of the red blood cells. It serves both as a control of success of the endurance training and as a detection of performance-reducing and healththreatening blood swellings, which occur if there is too much stress and the hydration is insufficient. Besides monitoring risk groups, the most important field of application are emergency diagnostics (loss of blood) and monitoring the HB value during surgery.

The device is ready for use immediately after switching on, calibration is not required. All filters are installed, and you only need to select the parameter to start the measurement.
Lamp replacement is no longer required with the use of modern diode technology.

The device saves all measured values and is suitable for use as a portable device with its low weight. Data transfer and evaluation is made simple with easily understandable software. Testing is very simple with only a small drop of blood required.
