About CAPILLARYS 3 TERA MC

The CAPILLARYS 3 TERA MC configuration allows the combination of one to three CAPILLARYS 3 TERA instruments to a Sebia loader, with a loading capacity of 528 samples in one row.

This high volume workcell provides 3 hours autonomy on HbA1c, and Hemoglobin testing, and more than 2 hours on Proteins, processing up to 528 samples in one go.

The system can be fed continuously with additional racks, and the reagent management system allows ad-hoc reagent addition at any time, without interruption.

Key benefits

Flexible workflow

The system allows on-the-fly rerouting of each loading lane. The user can also directly insert racks on one specific instrument (STAT).

A single I/O point

Load and unload the sample racks at the same point.

Performance

With up to 36 capillaries, the high volume workcell CAPILLARYS 3 TERA MC can respond to the highest volume with a low hands-on-time. The loader can receive 66 racks in one go (528 samples).
