HP-AD02 Electrolyte Analyzer Machine for Hospital Labs
Price, lead time and documents for your market are confirmed in the quotation.
Key takeaways
- HP-AD02 is the second of three benchtop electrolyte analyzer models (HP-AD01 to HP-AD03) offered by HOPE INTERNATIONAL.
- Most clinical electrolyte analyzers measure with ion-selective electrodes (ISE); the measuring principle and electrode set of HP-AD02 are stated on its specification sheet.
- Running cost depends on the reagent pack, electrode life and calibration routine, so ask for these with the quotation, not just the analyzer.
The HP-AD02 is an electrolyte analyzer machine for hospital and clinic laboratories and the second model in the HP-AD01 to HP-AD03 series. When comparing electrolyte analyzers, the purchase price is only part of the cost: electrodes, the reagent pack and daily calibration decide what each result really costs, so this page lists what to ask for.
Key Features
- Benchtop electrolyte analyzer with front display and control buttons (as pictured; the three HP-AD electrolyte models share one product photo).
- Measuring principle, electrode set and test menu are stated on the HP-AD02 specification sheet.
- Ask for electrode service life, reagent consumption per test and the calibration routine, so running cost can be calculated before ordering.
- Ask for the operator manual to review daily and weekly maintenance before purchase.
Applications
Routine electrolyte panels in hospital and clinic laboratories, urgent (STAT) testing for emergency and intensive care patients, and monitoring of dialysis patients and patients receiving intravenous fluids or diuretics.
How to specify when requesting a quote
- Parameters and sample types required.
- Daily sample volume, so reagent pack size and electrode life can be matched to your workload.
- Whether reagents, electrodes and QC material should be quoted for the first year of use.
- Mains voltage, plug type, quantity and destination.

Documents
Certificates, declarations of conformity and test reports for the specific model and destination market are provided with the quotation.
Analyzers and their reagents or test consumables are in vitro diagnostic (IVD) products, and import rules differ by country. Tell us your destination and the documents you need, for example the specification sheet, instructions for use, reagent safety data sheets, electrical safety test report or registration documents. We confirm which are available for HP-AD02 and its consumables before you order.
Frequently asked questions
+How does an electrolyte analyzer work?
Most clinical electrolyte analyzers use ion-selective electrodes (ISE). Each electrode develops a voltage that depends on the concentration of one ion, such as sodium or potassium, and the analyzer converts that voltage into a concentration by comparing it with calibration solutions. The measuring principle of HP-AD02 is stated on its specification sheet.
+Which electrodes does an electrolyte analyzer use?
Each measured ion has its own ion-selective electrode, used together with a reference electrode. Electrodes are consumables with a limited service life, so ask for the electrode list, expected life and replacement cost for HP-AD02 with the quotation.
+What maintenance does an electrolyte analyzer need?
Typical routines are daily cleaning and calibration checks, periodic protein removal from the sample path, replacement of the reagent pack, tubing and electrodes when due, and regular quality-control runs. The maintenance schedule for HP-AD02 is in its operator manual.
+How do you use an electrolyte analyzer?
After warm-up and calibration, the operator runs quality-control samples, then presents the patient sample to the probe; the analyzer aspirates, measures and displays or prints the results. The step-by-step procedure for HP-AD02 is in its operator manual, which you can request with the quotation.
