Chapter 1 Overview
1.1. Features
96 seconds per sample measurement in the Variant mode, and 380 seconds in the
Thalassemia mode.
It takes 96 seconds to measure HbA1c and HbF and detect HbE/HbD/HbS/HbC (Variant mode).
Tests for HbA1c /HbF/HbA2 and HbE/HbD/HbS/HbC variants are completed in 380 seconds
(Thalassemia mode).
Measurements for up to 50 samples
The instrument can measure a maximum of 50 consecutive samples. During transporting the
samples racks, the auto sampler will mix the whole blood samples thoroughly for three times
before testing to make total area and results more stable and reliable.
Managing column/reagent information
By scanning column/reagent Bard code or entering the serial numbers, you can store the
expiration dates and lot numbers of the column/reagents (eluents, hemolysis washing solution,
calibrator and QC) in the instrument. An error message appears on the screen if you try to enter
an incorrect or invalid bar code.
Easy to use
Priming before measurements is automated, so no action is needed from the time when power is
activated to the time when measurements start. A large color LCD makes measurement
conditions and menu settings easy to read and identify, which makes operation easy.
Measurement results, instrument status and operating procedures are displayed, while the
remaining volume of reagent is shown on electronic graphs.
Chromatograms can also be viewed along with measurement results.
Highly accurate measurement results
Measurements are performed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), a technique
that provides accurate data on HbA1c. A pre-column and column is used to remove labile HbA1c.
Stable HbA1c values, HbF values and chromatograms can be obtained.
Test mode switching
The instrument allows the switch between Variant and Thalassemia programs via a software command
resulting in the automatic replacement of eluent C (Variant mode) with eluent D (Thalassemia mode) in
the liquid line and vice versa.
Easy maintenance
Daily maintenance can usually be performed without tools as parts can be easily replaced and
tightened by hand. In addition, the prefilter is incorporated into the pre-column, removing the
need for prefilter replacement.
On-the-spot STAT measurement
A port specifically for STAT measurements is provided. So normal measurements can be
interrupted to measure one specific sample. STAT measurement can also be performed while the
standby screen is displayed.
Fluid level detection sensor to prevent reagent shortages during measurement
Reagent levels can be measured and when low levels are detected, messages shall be displayed
on screen to notify the user. Two reagent containers for each eluent are designed, in order to
allow the substitution of the empty container without interrupting the measurement routine.
LIS communications
The analyzer can be fully interfaced to laboratory IT (RS-232, RJ45 Ethernet).
Wide array of options available
Lifotronic makes available a wide array of options including hand-held barcode readers, and a
side sampler.

Chapter 1 Overview H100 Service Manual
In human blood, there are three kinds of hemoglobin (Hb): hemoglobin A (HbA),
hemoglobin A2 (HbA2) and hemoglobin F (HbF).
For adult, the level of HbA consists 97% of total hemoglobin, and HbA includes
2 subfractions: glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1)(6%), un-glycosylated
hemoglobin (HbA0)(94%).
Glycosylated hemoglobin is a compound that is formed in the non-enzymatic
reaction between hemoglobin and carbohydrate. Glycosylated hemoglobin is
called HbA1 and un-glycosylated hemoglobin is called HbA0.On the basis of
combination with different carbohydrate compound, glycosylated hemoglobin is
divided into HbA1a1、HbA1a2、HbA1b and HbA1c. Among of which, HbA1c is
about 80% of HbA1, a stable addition compound formed by one or two strips of
β-chain amino terminal and glucose carbonyl.
See constituent of hemoglobin below.

Bubble Elimination
When air bubbles appear in high pressure pump, system pressure cannot
increase to the normal range of 5-8MPa and meanwhile eluents cannot flow. The
analyzer will activate an error alarm indicating low pressure of the high pressure pump.
At this moment, bubble elimination should be performed. Please click “Bubble
Chapter 7 software H100 Service Manual
Elimination”, and turn on the evacuation valve as prompted on the interface. The
analyzer will execute bubble elimination then. After air bubbles are eliminated, please
re-tighten the evacuation valve.
Empty Test
Empty Test is used to test whether the elution process of the analyzer is correct.
Meanwhile, empty test can also eliminate reagent peaks. Please click “Empty Test” to
perform the procedure after removing the sample from the sample loader. The
acceptance criterion for empty test is that the red and blue lines are smooth and
highly coincide with each other.
When the pump speed of the analyzer, reagent and column change, empty test
should be executed again.
Dispose Reagent L
Reagent L is Hemolytic Agent L. Before disposing Hemolytic Agent L, please
place an EP tube with holder at STAT. position. After that, please click “Dispose
Reagent L” to perform the procedure. The analyzer will automatically aspirate 1500μL
from the Hemolytic Agent L bucket, and inject the Hemolytic Agent L into the EP tube
via the sampling needle for future use during calibration or QC operation or to pre-dilte
samples.
Reset Loader
Please click “Reset Loader” to reset the sample loader to original situation after
removing the sample rack from the sample loader.
Maintain Probe
If the probe need to be maintained, please click “Maintain Probe ” button and a
prompt will show “Confirm to maintain probe?”. Click “Yes”, and a prompt will show
“please place a W.B. tube with 5 ml cleaning solution in STAT Port”. Place 5mL
Cleaning Solution (HPLC) specified by manufacturer and designated agent as
required and start the probe maintenance procedure. The instrument automatically
absorbs the cleaning fluid and carry out the probe maintenance operation. The
sampling probe automatically resets after the completion of the maintenance. Finally,
dispose of used cleaning solution complying with local laws and regulations.
The Cleaning Solution (HPLC) can not be reused.
Cleaning

Replacement
Replacement function helps to replace eluent A/B/C/D and Hemolytic Agent L.
This section takes the replacement of eluent A as an example to illustrate this
function. The operation steps are as following:
1) Prepare aluminum foil bag with eluent A, connect the liquid line and screw up the
lid of the bag.
2) Click ”A” button, it will display eluent A replacement interface.
3) Click “Replace” button.
4) Input correct eluent A Lot.
5) Click “Yes”.
6) If not, click “Cancel” to quit the procedure.
Pack
1) Empty the liquid path;
2) Perfuse the liquid path with deionized water;
3) Empty the liquid path again.
This operation applies when the analyzer is to be left unused for a long period or
be transported for a long distance.
ADC415
The analyzer uses a high-precision photoelectric sampling system, and also
employs the dual-wavelength detection technique to eliminate system interference
and non-specific absorption of hemoglobin. In normal status, the ADC415 value is
within the range of 24000~28000; the ADC value is determined by the LED value and
the gain. The ADC value is in direct proportion to the LED value — the higher the LED
value is, the higher the ADC value will be. The ADC value is inversely proportional to
the gain — the higher the gain is, the smaller the ADC value will be.
If the ADC value cannot fall within the normal range after adjusting the LED value
and the gain, please confirm whether there are air bubbles in the cell and whether the
illuminating surface of the cell is dirty under the precondition that the system pressure
is normal.
ADC500
Similar to ADC415, the ADC500 value in normal status is within the range of
16000~20000. It is also affected by the LED value and the gain; the ADC value
debugging method is identical to that for ADC415.
Chapter 7 software H100 Service Manual
Pressure
The system pressure can reach above 5-8MPa, which increases as the number
of test increases. If the pressure is 4MPa above the pressure indicated on the product
delivery identification of the chromatographic Column, please first replace the filter. If
the pressure does not drop, please replace the chromatographic Column. The
analyzer will activate an alarm and the test will be interrupted if the system pressure is
beyond the set range.
Print Mode
Before printing test results, please prepare a printer. Two print modes are
available: Auto Print and Manual Print. If you click “Auto”, test results selected will be

The pressure was created when the liquid arrives the column. The column will give
resistant force to the liquid and create the pressure. So, before the liquid arrives the column,
the pressure should be 0-1Mpa, because the filter will also create little pressure but not too
much. The flow speed of the instrument is 1.8mL ± 0.02mL/min. Follow the step show as
below and open the HP pump, when you found the certain point, its pressure is 0, and
previous point’s pressure is greater than 1Mpa, then there is crystal in the pipeline between
