The Horiba Pentra C400 is a high-throughput clinical chemistry analyzer that consolidates routine and specialty testing onto a single platform, with up to 55 on-board assays, 420 tests per hour, and an optional integrated ISE module for simultaneous sodium, potassium, and chloride analysis. It combines an innovative barcoded cassette format, continuous sample loading, and a fully integrated validation station into one compact, touch-screen-operated system built for busy clinical laboratories.

✔ 55 On-Board Assays | ✔ 420 Tests/Hour | ✔ Integrated ISE Module

ONE PLATFORM FOR EVERY TEST YOU NEED

COMPREHENSIVE TEST MENU: Covers Comprehensive and Basic Metabolic Panels, Hepatic, Renal, Lipid, and Anemia Panels, plus HbA1c, Vitamin D, CRP, therapeutic drug monitoring, and a 14-substance drugs-of-abuse screen. Up to 40 user-definable channels expand the menu further.

DUAL ANALYSIS METHODS: Spectrophotometry (colorimetry and turbidimetry) and potentiometry (direct and indirect) handle a wide range of analyte types without additional platforms.

OPTIONAL ISE MODULE: Simultaneously analyzes sodium, potassium, and chloride with sample volumes as low as 20 µL indirect and 60 µL direct.

420 TESTS PER HOUR: Continuous sample loading across 6 racks of 10 positions, with automatic dilution (1/2 to 1/22,500), automatic post-concentration, and automatic re-run for out-of-range results.

BUILT FOR ACCURACY, DESIGNED FOR WORKFLOW

52 ON-BOARD REAGENT POSITIONS: 44 refrigerated (2–10°C) and 8 at room temperature. Barcoded cassettes automate stability checks, test countdown, and backup with minimal manual intervention.

PRECISION OPTICAL SYSTEM: Tungsten-halogen lamp with bi-chromatic absorbance across 15 selectable wavelengths (340–700 nm), holographic grating, and photodiode array sensor. 12-second reaction cycle with Teflon-coated stirrer and 432-cuvette disposable capacity.

INTEGRATED VALIDATION AND QC: Windows 10 touch screen with real-time workflow viewing, Levey-Jennings and Westgard QC rules, 100,000-result database, and LIS connectivity via RS-232C/ASTM.

SAMPLE INTEGRITY PROTECTION: Barcode reader, tube presence detector, and level, shock, and clot detection safeguard every sample from loading through result.

The Horiba Pentra C400 delivers the test menu breadth, throughput, and workflow intelligence that high-volume clinical laboratories need on a single, compact platform built for consistent, reliable results.
