Siemens Diagnostics CLINITEK Advantus 1420 Analyzer

The CLINITEK Advantus 1420 Urine Chemistry Analyzer by Siemens Diagnostics is a benchtop, semi-automated system engineered for hospital labs, outpatient clinics, and high-volume point-of-care settings. It delivers rapid, accurate urinalysis results—processing up to 500 tests per hour—with robust quality control and seamless data management.

Overview

This compact analyzer utilizes reflectance photometry to automatically read—and intelligently interpret—Multistix dry chemistry strips. Its Auto-Checks technology identifies strip type, detects humidity exposure, and flags sample interference, ensuring reliable results. Featuring automatic calibration, STAT interrupts, and a color touchscreen interface, the CLINITEK Advantus streamlines urinalysis workflows and integrates smoothly with laboratory information systems (LIS).
