Product Description
The Awareness Technology Stat Fax 3300 Microplate Reader is designed to read and calculate the results of in-vitro diagnostic assays. Equipped with a large graphical display, the reader provides absorbance and concentration readings at or near the available wavelength.
The design of this Awareness Technology microplate reader includes many features that reduce user errors and repeats. Among these are stable factory calibration, automatic zeroing, complete operator prompting, and pre-programmed calculations. Detailed labeling, visual and audible feedback, as well as flags and error messages add to the efficient operation of this system.
The flexible Stat Fax 3300 is equipped with multiple, self-prompting operating modes to meet the varying demands and requirements of any facility. The modes include Absorbance Mode, Standard Mode, Rate Mode, Factor Mode, Multi-point Mode, and Index Mode. Moreover, the instrument accepts standard 12 mm round tubes as well as 1 cm square cuvettes.
The Stat Fax 3300 reader‘s user-programmable memory allows the operator to store and name tests in a numbered test menu. Thereafter, these tests may be readily recalled for later use with minimal set up, and remain stored until either changed or deleted by the user. Basic calculations are also permanently stored in the Stat Fax memory, including several single and multi-point equations.
