Analyzers we make
Two compact analyzers for the routine tests every lab runs, designed and supported by Calyx in India.
Calyte electrolyte analyzer
Six electrolytes in 55 seconds, with maintenance-free, tool-less electrodes and a smart reagent pack that tracks its own use.

CalCyte 10 ESR analyzer
Ten-channel automated ESR. Against the manual one-hour Westergren method it correlates at R² = 0.98 (n = 115) across low, normal and high ranges.
| Channels | 10, random access |
|---|---|
| Throughput | 20 tests per hour |
| Method | Infrared reading, Westergren-correlated; ± 1 mm resolution |
| Early flag | Abnormal results flagged at 15 minutes |
| Sample | 1.28 ml whole blood in a 3.8% sodium citrate tube |
| Temperature | Automatic correction to 18 °C (optional) |
| Memory | 10,000 results |
| Size and weight | 20 × 25.5 × 18 cm, 2.5 kg |
