Automated hematology analyzer DxH 900

integrated system22-parameterelectrical impedance

Product overview
The DxH 900 hematology analyzer delivers comprehensive CBC, differential, reticulocyte and body fluid analysis with integrated VCS technology, DataFusion and an enhanced Coulter principle. Designed for clinical labs requiring high first-pass accuracy and scalable automation integration.

Key benefits and features

• Improved differential results for RBC, PLT and WBC using near-native cell characterization.
• High first-pass WBC differential reportability through combined VCS and DataFusion processing.
• Advanced platelet analysis with an enhanced Coulter principle providing reportable MPV, including thrombocytopenic samples.
• Accurate anemia assessment maintaining cellular characterization across RBC maturation stages.
• Smart slide preparation (compatible with DxH Slidemaker Stainer II) and Hemasphere technology to optimize peripheral smear quality.
• Predictable operating costs with controlled reagent consumption and fewer manual slide reviews.
• Automated maintenance routines and reduced reagent changes to maximize uptime.
• New emergency department parameter for early detection of potential infections.

Operational workflow and integration

• Optimizes processing time per square meter with higher reportability, fewer manual reviews and minimal operator intervention.
• Integrates with full laboratory automation and clinical information systems for one-touch processing.
• Biological fluid handling technology reduces serial dilutions and monitors sample integrity.
