Succeeder SF-400 Semi-Automated Coagulation Analyzer
The Succeeder SF-400 is a semi-automated coagulation analyzer with 4 independent testing channels for up to 90 PT tests/hour using viscosity-based clotting detection. Ideal for mid-sized labs and clinics, it measures PT, APTT, TT, FIB, and more via inductive dual magnetic circuit, features reagent pre-heating, magnetic stirring, LCD display, built-in printer, and LIS support for efficient, interference-free hemostasis profiling in plasma samples.
Description
Coagulation Parameters: Essential Hemostasis Profiling The Succeeder SF-400 evaluates core clotting factors including prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), fibrinogen (FIB), and extended assays like AT-III, heparin (HEP), low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), protein C (PC), protein S (PS), and coagulation factors (II, V, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, XII). This panel supports screening for bleeding disorders, monitoring anticoagulant therapy, and diagnosing thrombotic risks, providing precise results to guide warfarin dosing or DVT management in hematology, cardiology, and surgical settings.
Parameters Measured: Assesses up to 15+ parameters with high linearity (e.g., PT 0.7–99.9 s, APTT 20–120 s, FIB 0.3–9.9 g/L, TT 10–120 s) using mechanical viscosity detection, insensitive to hemolysis, icterus, lipemia, or turbidity for robust accuracy in challenging samples. Generates benchmark curves stored onboard, with automated computation of clotting times via magnetic bead fluctuation analysis; includes QC alarms and flags for abnormal ranges to ensure traceability and reduce false positives in routine or urgent testing.
Sample Requirements: Requires 50–100 µL of citrated plasma (manual pipetting), compatible with standard test tubes or cuvettes for venous draws. Supports random access without pre-dilution for most assays, with minimal sample waste and no carryover due to independent channels, making it suitable for low-volume labs or serial monitoring in anticoagulated patients.
Throughput: Processes up to 90 PT tests per hour (or equivalent for other assays) across 4 parallel channels, optimized for labs handling 200–500 tests daily. Random and sequential modes allow flexible workflows, with 2–5 minute TAT per sample including pre-heating, ideal for STAT requests in ORs or coagulation clinics without full automation.
Technology: Employs inductive dual magnetic circuit for viscosity-based clotting detection, where steel beads in sample-reagent mixtures fluctuate until clot formation, sensed by magnetic detectors for endpoint timing. Features automatic temperature accumulation (37°C), magnetic stirring for homogeneity, and digital signal processing for low CV (<3%); no optical interference, ensuring reliable performance per CLSI guidelines with minimal maintenance.
User Interface and Storage: Integrates a large LCD display for real-time monitoring of test status, timing, and curves, with simple keypad controls and multilingual support (up to 6 languages, including English and Chinese) for intuitive use. Stores 500+ benchmark curves and 1,000 results with patient IDs; built-in USB thermal printer outputs automatic reports with customizable templates, plus RS232 port for LIS/HIS connectivity and data export in CSV for electronic records.
Reagent System: Open system with 16 pre-heating positions (37°C) and 1 stirring station for liquid reagents, supporting Succeeder’s low-volume kits (e.g., PT/TT/APTT) with minimal consumption (20–50 µL/test). Auto-print of calibration curves and daily QC routines extend stability to 24 hours, reducing waste by 40% and simplifying inventory in decentralized labs.
Dimensions and Portability: Compact benchtop design measuring 410 × 390 × 130 mm (L × W × H) weighs 15 kg, easily fitting on standard counters or mobile carts for bedside or multi-site use. Low power (≤100 VA) and quiet operation (<50 dB) suit 15–30°C ambient with 30–85% humidity, with robust casing for daily durability.
