Core Unit

The core unit is always on the left side of the instrument and it is the loading and unloading point for samples, achieving a throughput of up to 1000 samples/hour. It features a dedicated STAT port for easy prioritization of emergency samples and allows for a bidirectional connectivity to pre-analytics.

ISE Module

The cobas ISE module measures the concentration of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+) and chloride (Cl-). It is available in two configurations with identical footprint but different throughput: 900 or 1,800 tests/hour.

Analytical Modules

One configuration can consist of one to four analytical modules. Clinical chemistry modules include a high-volume throughput clinical chemistry module (cobas c 702 module, cobas c 701 module), a mid-volume throughput clinical chemistry module (cobas c 502 module). Immunochemistry modules include the high-throughput immunochemistry module (cobas e 801 module) and a mid-volume throughput immunochemistry module (cobas e 602 module). The modular and scalable design of the cobas 8000 modular analyzer series offers more than 440 configurations with many choices to tailor solutions to individual laboratory needs, now and in the future.
