Refurbished Beckman Coulter DxC 700 AU Chemistry Analyzer
Beckman Coulter DxC 700 AU is the current mid- to high-volume AU chemistry analyzer, rebuilt Down-To-Frame® and verified in your lab. Save up to 70% compared with new.
The Beckman Coulter DxC 700 AU runs up to 800 photometric tests an hour, or up to 1,200 with its ISE module, with 63 assays on board and a 150-sample rack feeder. It loads reagents while it measures, runs on Windows 10, and uses the same standardized reagents as Beckman's other AU analyzers. A refurbished DxC 700 AU from Diamond Diagnostics costs up to 70% less than new.

What the Beckman DxC 700 AU does for a mid- to high-volume lab
Beckman built the DxC 700 AU by putting the operating design of its DxC line on top of AU chemistry. It measures by spectrophotometry and indirect ISE on serum, plasma, urine, whole blood for HbA1c and other fluids, and Beckman says its interface cuts the number of test-processing steps by 30%.
Throughput and menu. Up to 800 photometric tests an hour, or 1,200 with ISE, with 63 assays on board on ISE units. The ISE handles up to 200 samples an hour, or up to 600 tests an hour in ISE-only mode. Open channels let you add applications of your own.
Sample handling. The rack feeder holds 150 samples in barcoded racks of ten and loads continuously. A refrigerated STAT carousel holds 22 more, for STAT samples, calibrators and QC. Each test uses 1 to 25 µL of sample in 0.1 µL steps.
Reagents on the fly. Load reagents while the analyzer is in measure mode, so a bottle change doesn't stop the run.
HbA1c on the chemistry line. Beckman's HbA1c Advanced assay runs on whole blood with total precision of 2% CV or better.
Less downtime. Common parts such as probes, mixers and syringes come out in three steps or fewer and under 60 seconds, without tools. Clot detection clears blocked aspirations automatically, and STAT samples interrupt the routine queue with automatic repeat testing.
A current workstation. The DxC 700 AU runs Windows 10. Microsoft ended Windows 7 support in 2020, which matters if your IT team audits lab instruments.
Run the DxC 700 AU standalone or on your automation line
The DxC 700 AU analyzer is available in two sample-input versions, each with or without ISE.
Rack feeder version. Load samples through the 150-sample rack feeder and the refrigerated STAT carousel.
Direct track sampling (DTS) version. Sample straight from a Beckman automation track, with no rack feeder and no reracking. Labs on pre-analytical automation, or linking chemistry with an immunoassay analyzer, use this version.
Both versions run the same assays, reagents and software, and connect to your LIS and Beckman middleware.
Which labs buy a refurbished Beckman DxC 700 AU analyzer?
The DxC 700 AU chemistry analyzer is sized for mid- to large-sized hospitals and labs that need up to 1,200 chemistry results an hour from one analyzer.
Hospital core labs. Run routine chemistry, electrolytes and HbA1c on one analyzer, with STAT samples interrupting the queue.
Labs replacing an AU680. Keep your AU reagents, test menu and reference ranges, and move to Windows 10, reagent loading mid-run and quicker part swaps. Pricing a refurbished AU680 as well? We can quote both.
Labs on Beckman automation. Put a DTS unit on the track, alongside your immunoassay analyzer and pre-analytical automation.
Health systems standardizing on AU chemistry. Match reagents and reference ranges with the AU analyzers at your other sites.
Labs that want a current analyzer without new-analyzer pricing. Get the same platform Beckman sells today for up to 70% less.
DxC 700 AU with ISE or without
The ISE module adds sodium, potassium and chloride and raises the analyzer's ceiling from 800 to 1,200 tests an hour. The rest of the analyzer is identical.
DxC 700 AU. Up to 800 photometric tests an hour, for labs that run electrolytes on a blood gas or standalone electrolyte analyzer.
DxC 700 AU with ISE. Up to 1,200 tests an hour and 63 assays on board, with ISEs rated for long onboard life and replaced one electrode at a time.

DxC 700 AU or AU680?
Both run the same number of photometric tests an hour, with the same number of assays on board and the same AU reagents. The DxC 700 AU loads reagents while it measures, runs on Windows 10 and takes 30% fewer steps to process tests. The AU680 costs less to buy refurbished, so it suits labs that want the throughput without the newer workflow.
Site planning for the DxC 700 AU: floor space, power, water and drain
The DxC 700 AU analyzer measures 125 cm (49.2 in) wide, 89 cm (35 in) deep and 130 cm (51.2 in) tall, and weighs about 460 kg (1,015 lb). On the rack feeder version, the rack feeder sits alongside it as a second unit, about 73 cm (29 in) wide, 104 cm (41 in) deep and 94 cm (37 in) tall, at 165 kg (363 lb). Add service clearance around both before you mark out the floor.
