Description
The ARCHITECT ci4100 combines ARCHITECT c4000 and ARCHITECT i1000SR instruments − offering lower volume laboratories the enhanced efficiency and productivity employed by larger volume laboratories.
The ARCHITECT ci4100 offers a maximum throughput of up to 900 tests per hour, including 800 clinical chemistry and 100 immunoassay tests. Featuring a load-up capacity of 180 samples with 35 priority positions, the ARCHITECT ci4100 has up to 115 refrigerated reagent positions plus Integrated Chip Technology (Na+, K+ and Cl-).
**Unit is missing track for robotic arm. Carousel does not rotate when button is pressed but lid opens when button is pressed. Computer needs work and software. See attached pictures for more information.
