GHM CM-480 US – Open-System Clinical Chemistry Analyzer with 400 T/H Throughput, 105 Cuvettes, and Direct Whole Blood HbA1c Testing
GHM CM-480 US – Open-System Clinical Chemistry Analyzer with 400 T/H Throughput, 105 Cuvettes, and Direct Whole Blood HbA1c Testing
SKU: GHM CM-480 US
Brand: Global Healthcare Medical
Global Healthcare Medical GHM CM-480 US is a compact, fully automated open-system clinical chemistry analyzer engineered for hospital laboratories, diagnostic centers, and academic research institutes. Delivering a constant photometric throughput of 400 tests per hour (with an optional ISE module adding 600 T/H), the system pairs high-efficiency sample processing with an air bath heating system and precise sampling technology—a space-efficient benchtop solution for laboratories seeking reliable analytical performance without expanding their footprint.
The open-system configuration gives laboratories the freedom to program and run third-party reagents or in-house prepared chemistries alongside the manufacturer’s portfolio. This eliminates vendor lock-in, enables competitive reagent sourcing, and allows the testing menu to adapt as clinical requirements evolve—all while maintaining the consistent performance of a dedicated automated platform.
The analyzer features 105 quartz glass or plastic cuvettes, 80 reagent positions, and 50 sample positions, supporting simultaneous testing across a broad on-board menu. The 8-step warm liquid washing system with intelligent 3D full-needle washing and ultrasonic cleaning achieves a cross-contamination rate below 0.01%. The LED light source with diffraction grating and 16 wavelengths delivers stable, long-life optical performance. A standout capability is direct whole blood HbA1c testing—no manual pre-treatment required—with IFCC and NGSP standardization. The system supports serum, plasma, whole blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid sample types.
