Sysmex® CS-2500 System
Excel with confidence in your hemostasis testing.
Coagulation testing
The CS-2500 is efficient, and reliable. We use a lot less reagents than before, and we have not had the instrument down, other than for a cuvette jam, in the year and a half since we purchase it.

The Sysmex® CS-2500 System—a fully automated coagulation analyzer—employs smartly designed technologies including assay-based preanalytical sample-quality checks using PSI™ technology, automated mixing studies, automated platelet aggregation,* and clot waveform analysis† for improved efficiency, exceptional accuracy, and reliable first-run results. Equipped with next-generation PSI technologies, the Sysmex CS-2500 System takes hemostasis testing to the next level and helps labs truly excel with confidence.
Features:
- Approximately 180 simultaneous PT/APTT tests/hour.§
- Cap-piercing technology allows mix of capped and uncapped tubes and cups for dependable throughput
- Reagent capacity of up to 3000 tests,‡ with onboard capacity of up to 40 reagents and five additional buffer positions
- Assay-based preanalytical sample-quality checks using PSI™ technology for HIL interference, primary-tube sample-volume checks and clog detection provide accurate and reliable results on the first run
- Simultaneous multiwavelength analytical scanning detects and manages unsuitable samples to minimize retests and reflex testing.
- Anti-evaporation caps and reagent table refrigerated at approximately 10⁰C maximize onboard reagent stability
- Automated platelet aggregation* simplifies and automates assessment of inherited, acquired, or drug-induced platelet disorders
- Clot waveform analysis† illustrates the optical reaction profile during PT or APTT measurement and provides qualitative and sensitive waveform patterns
- Multidilution analysis (MDA), automated repeat, redilution, and reflex testing are consolidated on one platform
*Sysmex CE-marked application.
†Research use only.
‡Test capacities: PT—3000; PT/APTT—2880; PT/APTT/Fbg—2840.
§Throughput values were determined by the time to first result using Siemens’ study protocol with PT (Thromborel® S reagent) and APTT (Pathromtin™ SL reagent) test applications.
