EDAN H60S 5‑Part Hematology Analyzer with Autoloader

The EDAN H60S is a fully automated 5‑part differential hematology analyzer featuring an integrated 60‑sample autoloader for continuous, walk‑away operation. Designed for low‑ to moderate‑volume clinical laboratories, this benchtop system combines tri‑angle semiconductor laser flow cytometry for white blood cell differentiation with electrical impedance for red blood cell and platelet counting, plus a cyanide‑free colorimetric method for hemoglobin measurement.

The H60S delivers a comprehensive 33‑parameter complete blood count (CBC) including NRBC, NLR, PLR, and atypical lymphocyte (ALY) parameters—all with exceptional accuracy and minimal operator intervention. Its Android‑based operating system with a 12.1‑inch color touchscreen offers the intuitive feel of a smartphone, while the 60‑sample autoloader with STAT position enables urgent sample prioritization without interrupting the run.

Whether you run a hospital laboratory, a reference lab, or a veterinary diagnostic center, the H60S adapts to your workflow with three sampling modes (whole blood, capillary whole blood, and pre‑diluted), a throughput of 60 samples per hour, and robust LIS/HIS connectivity via standardized HL7 protocol.

Key Features & Benefits

60‑Sample Autoloader with STAT Priority

The H60S sets itself apart with an integrated 60‑sample carousel that supports continuous loading—you can add samples while the analyzer is running without interrupting the workflow. The STAT position allows immediate priority processing for urgent samples, with automatic tube size recognition and sample ID reading. This automation significantly reduces operator hands‑on time and maximizes laboratory efficiency.

5‑Part Differential with 33 Parameters

The H60S delivers 25 reportable parameters plus 8 research parameters—far beyond what 3‑part analyzers can offer. The 5‑part differential provides individual counts and percentages for:

• Neutrophils (NEU%) – key indicator of bacterial infection

• Lymphocytes (LYM%) – essential for viral infection and immune status

• Monocytes (MON%) – elevated in chronic inflammation and certain infections

• Eosinophils (EOS%) – critical for allergy and parasitic infection detection

• Basophils (BAS%) – valuable for allergic reactions and myeloproliferative disorders

Additional advanced parameters include NRBC%, NRBC# (nucleated red blood cells—helpful for diagnosing aplastic anemia, erythroleukemia, and myelofibrosis), ALY%, ALY# (atypical lymphocytes), LIC%, LIC# (large immature cells), NLR, and PLR—providing deeper insights into hematological conditions.

Sensitive Flagging System for Clinical Confidence

The H60S features a sensitive flagging system that automatically highlights clinically significant findings including NRBC, abnormal lymphocytes (ALY), eosinophilia, immature granulocytes (IG), and DIFF abnormalities. This intelligent system reduces the risk of missing critical findings while helping you prioritize slide reviews—especially valuable in high‑volume settings where efficiency is paramount.

Triple‑Laser Flow Cytometry Technology

The H60S employs tri‑angle semiconductor laser flow cytometry for WBC differential and BASO counting, combined with electrical impedance for RBC and PLT counting, and a cyanide‑free colorimetric method for hemoglobin measurement. This multi‑technology approach ensures:

• Accurate cell classification even in challenging samples

• Reliable platelet counting with anti‑interference technology

• Wide linearity ranges for abnormal clinical cases

Visual Data Interpretation

The H60S provides 3 histograms (WBC, RBC, PLT), 1 three‑dimensional scattergram (DIFF), and 4 two‑dimensional scattergrams (DIFF, BASO). These graphical representations allow you to quickly visualize cell populations and identify abnormalities at a glance—reducing time spent on data interpretation.

Android‑Based OS – Smartphone Simplicity

The Android‑based operating system delivers a user experience that feels natural and responsive. The 12.1‑inch color touchscreen displays all parameters and graphs on a single page, and you can access any function within two taps. The intuitive interface minimizes training time and reduces operator errors—allowing your team to focus on patient care rather than instrument operation.

Elegant Design – Five Tenets of Excellence

Built around EDAN's "Elegant Design as USUAL" philosophy, the H60S emphasizes five core principles:

• USER – Design with user‑oriented functionality

• SPACE – Design to suit your surroundings with a compact footprint (626.5 × 565 × 580 mm)

• OUTLINE – Design to simplify your operation

• SERIAL – Different models tailored to your needs

• LIFESPAN – Design for long product life

Smart Reagent Management with RFID

Each reagent is equipped with an RFID card that regulates usage and provides full traceability. This intelligent system:

• Prevents reagent errors

• Tracks consumption in real time

• Secures your reagent business model

• Reduces operating costs through optimized inventory management

Low Sample Volume – 16 µL

With a sample aspiration volume of just 16 µL (whole blood and capillary modes) and 20 µL for pre‑diluted mode, the H60S is ideal for:

• Pediatric and neonatal patients

• Small animal veterinary applications

• Critical care settings with limited blood availability

• Serial monitoring in patients where blood conservation is important

Flexible Connectivity & Data Management

• 100,000 result storage including histograms and scattergrams

• 60 QC files (100 data per file)

• Bi‑directional LIS/HIS connectivity with standardized HL7 protocol

• Flexible printing options – individual results, control tests, L‑J graphs, or QC lists with selectable parameters

• Customizable print templates and structured output formats

Long Reagent Lifespan & Cost‑Effective Operation

Reagents support long shelf‑life and stable performance, helping control running costs while maintaining analytical reliability. The system automatically reminds you when maintenance is due, ensuring consistent performance and reducing unplanned downtime.
