Citrate-free workflow
Runs ESR from a 2–4 mL whole-blood sample in the same EDTA / CBC tube used for the blood count — no separate citrate tube or dilution step.

Overview
ZBT-ESR® DT60 esr analyzer
ZBT-ESR® 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 a 2–4 mL whole-blood sample.
Read the full overview
Samples load continuously with random access across 60 channels. Infrared LED detection and the modified Westergren method provide results at room temperature and 18 °C in 20 minutes, with throughput up to 180 samples per hour and a measuring range of 1–140 mm/hr.
HCT correction using the Fabry formula, DAS28-ESR disease-activity scoring, two-level QC with a Levey-Jennings graph, a 10-inch color touchscreen, barcode reader, thermal printer, LIS over RS-232 / HL7, and Wi-Fi updates support a connected and traceable workflow.

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
Infrared modified Westergren
Infrared LED detection delivers modified-Westergren results at room temperature and 18 °C across a 1–140 mm/hr range.
Random-access loading
Continuous random access across 60 channels with throughput up to 180 samples per hour.
HCT correction
Hematocrit correction uses the Fabry formula.
DAS28-ESR scoring
Built-in DAS28-ESR disease-activity scoring supports rheumatoid-arthritis assessment.
Two-level quality control
Two-level QC is displayed with a Levey-Jennings graph.
Connected & updatable
Barcode reader, thermal printer, LIS over RS-232 / HL7, and Wi-Fi software updates support a traceable workflow.
No liquid waste
Because there is no citrate dilution, there is no liquid waste to dispose of — lowering disposal cost.
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
Infrared modified Westergren read
Infrared LED detection measures a 1–140 mm/hr range and calculates the result by a modified Westergren method.
- 03
Result in 20 minutes
Results at room temperature and 18 °C are displayed, printed, and transmitted to the LIS over HL7 — with no liquid waste.
