Startup
The Navios EX task scheduler warms up the system at a predetermined time so that it is ready to start when you are. The scheduler can also be used to shut down the instrument when a work list has finished for truly walk-away data acquisition.
Integrate with Automated Sample Preparation
The Navios EX is fully compatible with automated sample preparation modules, providing a seamless workflow solution. The PrepPlus 21 delivers precision pipetting of reagents, samples, controls and calibrators into secondary tubes; flexible software programming of reagents, controls and pipetting parameters; and improved safety with closed-tube sampling. Whole blood sample preparation is automated when run in conjunction with the TQ-Prep1 for rapid, no-wash lyse and fix. The standard 32-tube carousel allows for walk-away sample processing and handles high volumes of tests with ease.
Sample Tracking
The Navios EX incorporates four-way on-board barcode identification (Carousel ID, Position ID, Primary Sample ID, and Daughter Tube ID). With the Navios Platform it’s easy to track and maintain sample identification from order entry to report generation, and to trace sample status in real time. With its single tube vortex capability, sample integrity is maintained throughout the run.
System Stability
The Navios EX’s thermoregulation system maintains the optical area at a consistent temperature, assuring reliable data while minimizing laser downtime and maintaining compensation settings.
