Equipment for plasma, platelets and blood components, including therapeutic apheresis systems.
Blood service equipment
Blood component storage and preparation
Equipping blood services by workflow stage
This section brings together plasma thawers, platelet incubators and agitators, and therapeutic apheresis systems. Dedicated refrigerated and frozen-storage categories are linked separately. Select equipment for the component, workflow and facility requirements.
Equipment areas, purpose and selection criteria
| Category | Task | What to specify |
|---|---|---|
| Blood Plasma Thawers | Preparation of frozen plasma within the specified workflow. | Capacity, bag types, programs and parameter recording. |
| Platelet Incubators and Agitators | Controlled environment and agitation for platelet components. | Capacity, incubator-agitator compatibility and alarms. |
| Therapeutic apheresis systems | Therapeutic apheresis procedures on a dedicated platform. | Supported procedures, disposable sets and workstation configuration. |
| +4 °C | Blood refrigerators | Dedicated refrigerated blood-component storage. | Model-specific operating range, capacity, monitoring and alarms. |
| Blood Bank Centrifuges | Low-temperature storage of plasma and biological materials. | Temperature conditions, packaging, capacity and backup storage. |
Configuration and operational continuity
For storage, agree monitoring, alarms, contingency arrangements and performance verification. For procedure systems, define compatible circuits, disposable sets, consumable supply and service. Storage conditions and periods cannot be determined solely from an equipment name; they depend on the component, packaging, instructions and facility protocols.
Configuration, pricing and procurement
For a quotation, specify the required configuration, number of instruments, installation city and services needed. Agree options, consumables, commissioning and staff familiarisation separately. Documentation, delivery times and warranty terms are specified in the quotation and contract. See the model page for its current price or quotation request option.
Questions before selection and procurement
Does apheresis replace storage equipment?
No. An apheresis system is a procedure platform, while refrigerators, freezers and incubators provide separate storage functions. They serve different tasks.
What should be compared in plasma thawers?
Compare capacity and bag compatibility, process control, programs, documentation and cleaning requirements. Check operating parameters against the exact model instructions.
Are incubators and agitators supplied as the same configuration?
Incubators and agitators serve different functions. They may be supplied separately or as a matched set; specify compatibility, shelf count and capacity.
What is needed for a complete equipment proposal?
Provide component and procedure lists, workload, storage capacity, room layout and existing equipment. Agree monitoring, commissioning, documentation and service planning separately.
