HA-8190V 6-13
Loop transportation
Up to 100 samples can be measured continuously by setting 5 racks each on the rack loading and unloading sides of
the sampler and circulating these racks. Be sure to place the start rack at the first position of a batch, and normal racks,
in the remaining area (numbered 2 to 10 in the figure below). The instrument then starts measurements with the start
rack, and stops when it has finished aspiration of all the samples and detected the start rack again.
Normal measurement
In normal measurement, samples are set in racks and measured continuously. It is called “normal measurement” to
differentiate it from other measurements for specific purposes such as control measurements and calibrations.
Sleep mode
In sleep mode, the display turns off and power to the mechanical sections shuts off in the same way as when power is
turned off. The standby switch lights up orange. The instrument still consumes a small level of power because power
is not completely shut off.
NGSP value for HbA1c
NGSP (National Glycohemoglobin Standardization Program) values are obtained by converting IFCC values
(mmol/mol) with the conversion formula.
Measurement unit: %
Measurement mode
The HA-8190V supports two measurement modes: Variant and Fast. The Variant mode detects HbS and HbC in
addition to measuring HbA1c and HbF. If HbS and HbC detections are unnecessary, setting the Fast mode shortens
measurement time.
Reagent information
Reagent information can be set in the HA-8190V to prove that the right reagents are being used for measurement. The
reagent information can be added to printed result reports.
