WhatsApp Order

The Urine Analyzer Plus Semi-Automated (CL-500) is a high-throughput, semi-automated urine test strip analyzer designed for large-volume clinical laboratories, hospital settings, public health screening programs, and high-volume point-of-care facilities . Using LED reflectance photometry at 550nm, 620nm, and 720nm wavelengths, the analyzer measures up to 14 urinary parameters with a throughput of 550 strips per hour and a test time of 65 seconds .

The analyzer features automatic strip feeding for continuous loading without operator intervention, built-in onboard waste collection, and open system compatibility accepting standard urine test strips. The microprocessor-based system stores 5,000 test results with multilingual support (English, Russian, Spanish, Ukrainian), offers comprehensive connectivity (bidirectional LIS, RS-232, USB, WiFi), and includes a built-in thermal printer .

Measured parameters include leukocytes, ketone, nitrite, protein, glucose, blood, calcium, ascorbic acid, urobilinogen, bilirubin, specific gravity, microalbumin, pH, and creatinine—enabling comprehensive urinalysis for UTI diagnosis, diabetes screening, preeclampsia detection, and chronic kidney disease monitoring .

For the clinical laboratory scientist and public health program manager, the CL-500 Plus enables high-volume UTI diagnosis (550 tests/hour), population-based diabetes screening, proteinuria surveillance in large antenatal services, CKD monitoring for hypertension and diabetes programs, and integrated public health reporting via bidirectional LIS connectivity. For the patient, high-throughput urinalysis enables early detection of urinary tract infections (preventing pyelonephritis and urosepsis), timely diagnosis of diabetes and preeclampsia (reducing complications), and early identification of chronic kidney disease (preserving renal function)—particularly in large-scale screening programs where efficient testing is essential for population health impact .

Description

Plus Semi-Automated Urine Analyzer CL-500

PRIMARY CLINICAL & DIAGNOSTIC USES

1. High-Throughput Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Screening

Primary Use: Provides a high-throughput semi-automated urine test strip analyzer with automatic strip feeding (up to 550 strips per hour) using LED reflectance photometry at 550nm, 620nm, and 720nm wavelengths to detect leukocytes and nitrites as primary UTI indicators .
How it helps: For the clinical laboratory scientist and infectious disease specialist, the CL-500 Plus delivers high-volume, automated processing of UTI screening—eliminating manual strip handling and subjective visual reading while enabling continuous, walk-away operation. For the patient presenting with dysuria, frequency, or suprapubic pain, high-throughput UTI screening enables rapid antibiotic therapy decisions, reducing symptom duration and preventing progression to pyelonephritis, urosepsis, or pregnancy complications.

2. Large-Scale Diabetes and Metabolic Disorder Screening

Primary Use: Measures urine glucose and ketones for population-based diabetes screening, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) detection, and metabolic disorder surveillance in high-volume public health programs .
How it helps: For the endocrinologist and public health physician, the CL-500 Plus’s 550-test-per-hour throughput and automatic strip feeding support mass screening campaigns in community health initiatives, mobile health programs, and public health outreach. For the patient, high-volume screening enables early detection of undiagnosed diabetes, prevention of DKA complications, and identification of individuals needing confirmatory blood glucose testing and diabetes management, particularly in underserved populations with limited routine healthcare access.

3. Preeclampsia and Pregnancy Complication Surveillance

Primary Use: Detects proteinuria and microalbuminuria, critical markers for preeclampsia and gestational diabetes screening in large obstetrics practices and antenatal clinics .
How it helps: For the obstetrician and midwife in high-volume maternity services, the CL-500 Plus’s automated strip feeding and continuous operation mode enables efficient proteinuria screening for large numbers of pregnant women during routine antenatal visits, particularly in busy maternity hospitals, prenatal clinics, and mobile maternal health programs. For the pregnant patient, early detection of proteinuria triggers timely referral and management, reducing the risk of eclampsia, preterm delivery, placental abruption, and maternal-fetal mortality, especially in resource-limited settings where advanced obstetric care may be distant.

4. Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Surveillance and Program Monitoring

Primary Use: Measures microalbumin, creatinine, microalbumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR), and protein for chronic kidney disease surveillance, diabetic nephropathy monitoring, and hypertension-related renal damage assessment in high-volume testing environments .
How it helps: For the nephrologist and public health program manager, the CL-500 Plus’s bidirectional LIS connectivity and 5,000-result memory enable efficient integration with electronic medical records for CKD surveillance programs, longitudinal patient monitoring, and public health reporting. For the patient with hypertension, diabetes, or established CKD, regular microalbumin and protein monitoring via high-throughput urinalysis enables early detection of nephropathy progression, timely adjustment of renoprotective therapy (ACE inhibitors, ARBs), and referral to nephrology services—critical for slowing disease progression and preserving residual renal function.
