Analyzer Overview
What can your Urine Analyzer do?
Your Pro Advantage Urine Analyzer is a portable, bench top analyzer for reading the manufacturer urine reagent strips.
Training for this instrument is not required or necessary. Multiple urine strip types can be used with this analyzer.
Specifically the Pro Advantage 2 parameter (P080012), 4 parameter (P080014) and 10 parameter (P080010).
You have the ability to use a Patient ID and also select the color of the urine prior to testing each patient sample. This
information will be displayed along with the test results on the print out. This analyzer has a simple four (4) button
configuration that allows for quick access to choose any menu option, and also allows for quick entering and exiting out of
selected menu options
Is calibration required?
The Pro Advantage Urine Analyzer does not require daily calibration, as the instrument performs a system calibration
each time it is turned on.
How does the analyzer work?
The user has the option to input the
Patient ID
and also select the urine color before running the patient sample. Testing
starts when
Urine Test
is selected on the main menu screen. From this point you have 5 seconds to dip the urine
reagent strip, blot the edge of the strip and place it on the test strip bed. The analyzer will then count down from 60
seconds to 14 seconds before the test strip table is pulled into the instrument to read the urine reagent strip.
How are results reported?
Each result will be shown on the LCD screen and printed (if desired). The results can also be transferred to a computer
using a 9-pin serial cable and the RS-232 serial port on the back of the instrument. The analyzer retains results from 1000
patient tests. You are able to search for past patient results on the analyzer using the
Urine Data
menu option.
What powers the analyzer?
The analyzer has a connection in the rear of the machine which uses a power adapter that can be plugged into an
electrical outlet for use on a bench top.
How many patient samples does the analyzer store?
The analyzer will store 1000 patient results and patient ID numbers.
