How do you use the volume optimized feature in the software?

The Volume Optimization feature in our clinical chemistry analyzer Photometer 5010 helps optimize sample use.

See our how-to guide on Volume Optimized is OFF vs. ON

Inside, you’ll learn:

What happens when Volume Optimized is OFF vs. ON
How the system behaves when you present the exact sample volume
What changes when you provide more than the required amount
How to make the most of this feature for smooth, reliable workflows

Which clinical chemistry reagents are compatible for our analyzers?

Our devices have an open system, allowing users to utilize reagents from any brand manufacturing e.g clinical chemistry reagents.

Compatible reagents are validated on our devices. The respective methods can be pre-programmed in our analyzers and are therefore easily accessible.

What do I need to keep in mind when I turn off the device?

Find our End-of-Day Routine for Semi-Automated Clinical Chemistry Analyzers here: Link

The way we shut down and maintain our analyzers at the end of the day plays a critical role in ensuring accuracy, extending instrument life, and keeping workflows smooth.

For our Photometer 5010 with a flow-through cuvette, here’s a simple but essential end-of-day routine:

Flush the flow-through cuvette
Empty the tubing system
Release the pump tube
Check and clean waste container
