Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 • Transporting In its packaging, the instrument weighs about 3kg and about 2kg without packaging. The carton dimensions are 320(L)×250(W)×170(H) mm. No special equipment is therefore required for transporting, loading or unloading the instrument in its box. When handling the equipment, the warning on the outside of the package, (This Side UP ↑) must be respected.
Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 2. Introduction Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 can actively determine the total bilirubin quantity in blood. Requires only 40 to 45µL of sample volume and provides quick results within 10 seconds. It works in the principle of direct photometry. Incorporated with a long- lifetime white light LED for the light source.
Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 6. Instrument Introduction The principle of total bilirubin meter is direct photometry. It tests the color of blood plasma and gets the concentration of total bilirubin by comparing the color to the calibrator. The collected blood is divided into 2 parts after centrifuge, the bottom part is blood cell, and the top part is plasma.
The wrong power supply can damage the instrument. After the above steps are confirmed, start the installation of LABM-A10. 3) Place LABM-A10 on a flat, clean, stable table. Since it is an indoor instrument, avoid strong light, heat sources, electromagnetic radiation, and strong vibrations.
Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 8. Working Principle The Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 works on the principle of Direct photometry. It measures the color of blood plasma and determines the total bilirubin concentration by comparing the color to a calibrator. Figure-2 The concentration of the substance is calculated using the formula given below: Conc =F ×...
Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 9. Operations Prepare a blank calibrator and sample. Kindly use appointed capillary only: 75mm/60μL, diameter 1.3mm-1.4mm made by HIRSCHMANN LABORGERATE (GERMANY). 9.1 Prepare blank 1) Hold the red end of the capillary and fill the capillary 2/3 – 3/4 of the total volume of the capillary with distilled water (about 40-45μL).

Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 9.3 Prepare sample 1) Hold the red end of the capillary and fill the capillary 2/3 – 3/4 of the total volume of the capillary with blood (about 40-45μL). 2) Hold the red end of the capillary by 2 fingers and put the other end into sealing putty.
Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 Software Operations 10.1 Operation Meter 1) Connect the power supply, and switch on power. The meter will display as: Figure-6 2) After 3s, the meter will display as: Figure-7 3) Remove the capillary from the measurement cell. The meter starts to test the status of the main wavelength and sub-wavelength.

Bilirubin Meter LABM-A10 6) Filter 2 is the signal intensity of reference wavelength; the range is 22000-28000. If it is lower than 22000, you must check the meter status. The reading can be increased by increasing the AV: Vlin=Vlin0 × (1+AV/10) Vlin is the reading with Av, Vlin0 is the reading when Av=00 7) Press ←...
