Cascade M, 2-channel analyzer, 4-line screen, 110V / 220V
Cascade M is a manual hemostasis analyzers that are ideal for all routine clotting assays - PTs, aPTTs, thrombins, fibrinogens and factor assays. Designed for easy, inexpensive, low-volume testing, these analyzers are small in size but big on features, offering you many time and labor saving benefits. Operation is simple and economical.
Easy-to-Use Keypad, On-Screen Prompts - All tests are clearly enumerated on the keypad for fast, easy test selection - there's no guess work caused by "hidden" function keys. Computer prompts appear on the screen to conveniently step the user through testing. Default settings are preprogrammed but can easily be changed, if desired. (Instructions for changing parameters are provided).
State-of-the-Art Photo Optics - Independent photo-optic detection sources (two for Cascade M) read all samples, regardless of turbidity. Samples can be read in duplicate or in single.
Computerized Features, On-board Quality Control - Cascade M standard curves calculate patient results, INRs and aPTT ratios. Quality control tasks are easy because Cascade M can calculate mean, SD and CV, plus plot and print Levy-Jennings QC charts.
Compact, Lightweight - With benchtop footprints smaller than 15 inch wide by 15 inch deep and weights of approximately 20 pounds, Cascade M is sized to fit any lab. Compact size, dependability and versatility make Cascade M excellent choices as primary analyzers for smaller laboratories or as backup units for larger coagulation analyzers.
