The Meril CliniQuant Semi-Automatic Biochemistry Analyzer is a compact clinical chemistry analyzer designed for routine and specialized biochemical testing in diagnostic laboratories. It supports testing of serum, plasma, urine, body fluids, and hemolysate samples, using a range of assay modes and monochromatic or bichromatic measurement methods.
The Meril CliniQuant features a quartz flow cell, a quartz halogen light source, and seven predefined wavelength filters with one free filter position. Its Peltier temperature control offers settings of 25°C, 30°C, and 37°C with a stated accuracy of ±0.1°C.
Designed for practical laboratory operation, the analyzer includes a graphical LCD, an inbuilt thermal printer, onboard result storage, and three-level quality control with Levey-Jennings graph display. RS232 PC connectivity supports data management, with optional PC software available. Its compact footprint and specified maximum power consumption of 45 W make it an option for laboratories seeking a semi-automatic biochemistry system.
