Refurbished Beckman Coulter AU480 with ISE Chemistry Analyzer
The AU480 with ISE is a variant of the Beckman Coulter AU480, fitted with an indirect ISE module for sodium, potassium and chloride. The rack loader, cooled STAT turntable, reagent compartment, barcode calibration and photometric menu are identical to the base AU480.
What the ISE module adds, in practical terms
Up to 800 tests an hour instead of 400. The ISE works in parallel with the photometer, so electrolytes add capacity without taking any away from your photometric tests. In a busy morning, your liver panels and lipids keep moving while electrolytes run on their own channel.
63 tests ready at once instead of 60. Electrolytes live on the ISE, so all 60 photometric channels stay free for the rest of your menu, and you're less likely to swap reagents on and off the analyzer.
Panels finish where they start. Basic and comprehensive metabolic panels complete on one analyzer from one tube, with no aliquoting for a second instrument and one result set to verify.
Room for electrolyte-heavy days. The ISE handles up to 200 samples an hour, or up to 600 tests an hour in ISE-only mode, which helps when ED and dialysis orders spike.
Ongoing ISE care. The long-life electrodes still need periodic replacement, plus ISE buffer and routine ISE maintenance.
Which AU480 to buy
Choose the AU480 with ISE if electrolytes are a big share of your orders, or you want to retire a separate electrolyte analyzer.
Choose the AU480 if your blood gas analyzer already reports electrolytes and you'd rather avoid ISE upkeep.
Choose the DxC 500 AU with ISE if you want Beckman's newer analyzer in this class, with a 168-sample loader.
