HEMIX 3-60 is a 3-part hematology analyzer from SFRI (France) that offers high performance in terms of accuracy and speed with minimal blood sample volume. With its compact design, low reagent consumption, and automatic maintenance, this device is the perfect choice for labs aiming for precise results and high efficiency at a low cost. Offering 21 parameters and an easy-to-use interface, HEMIX 3-60 remains the ideal solution for modern laboratories. For labs that prioritize 3D histograms and 19 parameters, the Diagon D-Cell 60 provides a compelling alternative with similar throughput.

Key Features and Parameters

The HEMIX 3-60 measures 21 parameters, including:

• WBC, Lymph#, Mid#, Gran#, Lymph%, Mid%, Gran%
• RBC, HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW-CV, RDW-SD
• PLT, MPV, PCT, P-LCR, P-LC

These parameters cover a wide diagnostic range, providing comprehensive insight into the patient’s hematologic status.

High Accuracy and Performance

Using impedance technology for cell counting and cyanide-free optical detection for hemoglobin, the HEMIX 3-60 guarantees both safety and precision. Performance metrics are impressive:

• WBC: Linearity 1.0–100.0 ×10⁹/L, CV ≤ 2.0%
• RBC: Linearity 0.30–10.00 ×10¹²/L, CV ≤ 1.5%
• HGB: Linearity 20–240 g/L, CV ≤ 1.5%
• PLT: Linearity 10–999 ×10⁹/L, CV ≤ 5.0%

These values ensure accuracy for both normal and pathological samples, including those with high lymphocytes or low platelet counts.

Efficient and Fast Throughput

With a throughput of 60 seconds per sample, the HEMIX 3-60 ensures high productivity in busy clinical environments. It supports:

• Venous samples: ≤14 µL
• Pre-diluted samples: ≤20 µL
• Advanced Software and Display

One of the standout features is its user-friendly and multilingual software, operating on a Linux® platform and displayed on a:

• 8” TFT LCD touchscreen
• Resolution: 800×600, with true color display

The software includes:

• Automatic calibration and maintenance
• Self-testing and error display
• Intuitive interpretation of anemia types (normochromic, macrocytic)
• Easy-to-navigate interface with touch keyboard

Maimtenance and Reliability

The HEMIX 3-60 is designed for robust, easy maintenance:

• Automatic unclogging with back flushing, soaking, and burning
• Separated fluidic and electronic systems for added safety
• Components from reliable suppliers with removable sub-assemblies
• Only two reagents required, reducing operating costs

It’s suitable for labs with <20 tests/day and supports automatic start-up procedures to reduce reagent waste.

Storage and Connectivity

The system offers powerful data management features:

• Up to 50,000 patient files with histograms
• LIS connectivity via HL7 protocol
• Memory export through USB, RS232, or Ethernet
• External monitor, barcode reader, mouse, and keyboard support (optional)

Operating Environment and Power

• Temperature: 18°C – 30°C
• Humidity: < 70%
• Atmospheric pressure: 70 – 106 kPa
• Power requirements: A.C. 110/220V ±10%, 50–60Hz, 150VA input

Its compact design (330W x 430H x 380D mm) and light weight (23 kg) make it ideal for space-constrained environments.
