The SMARTCHEM® 450 is the result of AMS Alliance know-how, manufacturer of analytical instruments with over 35 years’ experience. It is the most recent analyzer among a full range of laboratory instruments, and it has been designed to meet the needs of high productivity while reducing the overall cost of analysis and providing accurate, safe, rapid and standardized results. Thanks to its loading capacity (100 samples, 72 reagents) and its capacity of 450 tests/hour, the SMARTCHEM 450 is the right solution for all laboratories with its incomparable efficiency. Barcode readers, ready to use reagents with unique inventory management, connectivity … everything has been designed to optimize both the performance and the autonomy of the SMARTCHEM 450, which will reduce the preparation time of your analyses. The discrete technology flexibility, powered by AMS Alliance, allows to safely combine the analyses and the parameters in all kind of matrix. The SMARTCHEM 450 will be able to handle all your obligations for maximum efficiency. PRODUCTIVITY FOR ALL LABORATORIES •RECORD CAPACITY OF 100 SAMPLES •CONTINUOUS LOADING •UNLIMITED METHODS •HIGH THROUGHPUT UP TO 450 TESTS PER HOUR •AUTOMATIC STARTUP AND CALIBRATION ROUTINE •REPEAT & REFLEX TESTS •BARCODE READING •BI-DIRECTIONAL LIMS READY •REAGENT INVENTORY MANAGEMENT The SMARTCHEM® 450 is a fully automated discrete analyzer that provides one of the best returns over investment on the market, reduces the time of analysis as well as the risk of errors. The analyses are optimized, simplified and accelerated by the use of dedicated ready to use reagents available for most of the parameters. It uses a proven concept of washable and reusable cuvettes, whose integrity is guaranteed by an integrated wash and control station before and after every analysis. Furthermore, the device has been designed in accordance with a Green technology, which aims to reduce firstly the amount of water and reagents used, and secondly the volume of waste to be reprocessed. Finally its compact dimensions enable to minimize the floor area occupied, which will help to decrease your operating costs. These innovations, coupled with its high speeds, decreases the running costs of the analyzer and the unit cost of the analyses, responding accurately to the needs of laboratories..

You have the possibility to have a wireless control of the device thanks to a touch screen tablet or, remotely, through a web interface. Many settings (such as pre-cleaning of the cuvettes, calibrations…) can be programmed in advance in order to optimize the machine-operators’ time. The new software enables and records where every reaction takes place so that the individual test values of a sample can be accurately identified in the incubator. This is particularly relevant in certain analytes known to cause issues in other systems incubators. This enables the operator to rapidly audit and identify any potential anomalies and react swiftly in real-time to provide corrective action. Another unique development of the SMARTCHEM 450 is over range dilutions, these are carried out in sequence and not left until the end of the run, which in the case of systems which leave then until the end of the run can often interfere with reporting sequencing. Possibility of wireless control with a touchscreen tablet TOTAL FLEXIBILITY •AUTOMATIC START-UP (INCLUDING CALIBRATION) •100 SAMPLES VISIBLE AT A GLANCE •REPEAT & REFLEX FUNCTIONS •BARCODE READING FOR SAMPLES & REAGENTS •ADDITION OF NEW SAMPLE OR METHOD TO A SAMPLE DURING THE RUN •STAT SAMPLES •COMPARISON OF CALIBRATION CURVES WITH PREVIOUS CURVES BETTER RESULTS The SMARTCHEM® 450 is the most flexible analyzer of the market, adapted to all laboratories capacities. It uses the latest innovations of discrete technology in order to offer more flexibility, more precision, more simplicity, more rapidity, and finally, better results. The development and introduction of capped sample tubes* minimizes the risk of Ammonia cross contamination as well as reducing evaporation. Capping also reduces the effects of aerial factors that interfere with parameters such as pH and conductivity. Together with the incubator design tests have shown this to be a major advantage over existing technologies. Our technical support and our application laboratory assist and advice you over the methods to use, and provide the maintenance of your device worldwide in order to permanently ensure its top performances. * On development FLEXIBILITY & PERFORMANCE •6 OR 10MM OPTICAL PATH FOR INCREASE ACCURACY •CAPPED TUBES FOR THE ANALYSIS OF SENSITIVE SAMPLES / PARAMETERS* •AUTOMATED CLEANING OF CUVETTES TO AVOID ANY RISK OF CROSS CONTAMINATION •FULLY AUTOMATED OPERATION •READY-TO-USE REAGENTS WITH BAR CODE FOR BETTER TRACEABILITY •TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND APPLICATION LABORATORY AT YOUR DISPOSAL MAIN PARAMETERS Main analyzed parameters (Do not hesitate to consult us if you can’t find your parameter in the following list) Surface, ground, drinking, waste and sea waters Alkalinity Ammonia Chloride Chlorine Chromium Cyanide Fluoride Hardness Iron Manganese Nitrate Nitrite Phenol Phosphate Silicate Sulfate Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen Total Kjeldahl Phosphorous Turbidity Urea Soils & Plants Ammonia Boron Calcium Chloride Lysine Magnesium Nitrate Nitrite Phosphate Total Nitrogen Total Phosphorous Urea Feed & Fertilizers Ammonia Calcium Chloride Phosphate Protein Total Nitrogen Total Phosphorous Urea Some parameters require an external pre-treatment of the sample.
