Introduction - Beckman Coulter Power Express Instructions For Use Manual

Intended Use
Power Express is a high-speed, automated sample handling system that processes sample
tubes from pre-analytical sample tube preparation to presentation of sample tubes into
racks. Power Express can be configured with optional hardware to support sample tube
processing on connected analyzers.
Power Express performs all pre-analytical sample tube preparation, and then routes the
sample tubes directly to connected analyzers for testing. The tubes can subsequently be
routed to other connected analyzers for additional testing and to connected post-analytical
modules.
