Upcoming ProductZBT-ESR-60 Automated ESR Analyzer — 60-Channel Modified Westergren from the EDTA / CBC Tube
Sedimentation, simplified — automated modified-Westergren ESR straight from the EDTA / CBC tube you already draw for the blood count.
- Runs from the EDTA / CBC tube — citrate-free
- Only 2 mL of whole blood
- Modified Westergren, reported at 18 °C
- Results in about 20 minutes
Overview
ZBT-ESR-60 esr analyzer
ZBT-ESR-60 (model DT60) is an automated erythrocyte sedimentation rate analyzer that runs the ESR test directly from the standard EDTA / CBC tube already drawn for the complete blood count — with no separate citrate tube and as little as 2 mL of whole blood.
Read the full overview
Samples load continuously with random access across 60 channels, and results are calculated by a modified Westergren method reported at 18 °C in about 20 minutes. Because the test uses the same EDTA / CBC tube as the blood count, there is no citrate dilution step and no liquid waste to dispose of.
A 10" color touchscreen, barcode reader, thermal printer, and LIS connectivity over RS-232 with HL7 keep everyday operation fast, traceable, and low-maintenance.

Who is it for?
Clinical and pathology laboratories and hospital diagnostic departments that run ESR alongside the complete blood count.
What problem does it solve?
Traditional citrate ESR needs a separate tube and dilution step, generates liquid waste, and is slow — adding cost and turnaround pressure.
Key features
Small sample volume
Requires as little as 2 mL of whole blood, supporting efficient sample use.
Modified Westergren
Results are calculated by a modified Westergren method and reported at 18 °C for consistency.
Random-access loading
Continuous random access across 60 channels so urgent samples are not held up.
No liquid waste
Because there is no citrate dilution, there is no liquid waste to dispose of — lowering disposal cost.
Connected & simple
10" color touchscreen with barcode reader, thermal printer, and LIS over RS-232 / HL7.
How it works
- 01
Load the EDTA / CBC tube
Place the standard EDTA tube directly into any free channel — random access across 60 channels.
- 02
Modified Westergren read
The analyzer measures and calculates the result by a modified Westergren method, reported at 18 °C.
- 03
Result in ~20 minutes
Results are displayed, printed, and transmitted to the LIS over HL7 — with no liquid waste.
