Its applications include, but are not limited to:
- Water and environmental
- Soil extracts, plant extracts, and fertilizers
- Food and feed
- Beverages, wine and beer
- Chemical
See our list of test parameters by sub-segment here (not limited)
The SmartChem® 600 uses direct read photometry, utilizing a true discrete, direct read measurement system and reusable, high-purity optical cuvettes, eliminating compromised sample measurement.
SmartChem® simplifies your laboratory’s work in a short series of steps:
- Load samples and reagents in your SmartChem®
- Set up your test
- Load your work program in the SmartChem® software
- Launch your programmed routine
- Get the results
Its continuous loading capability makes it an ideal tool for laboratories that want to reduce the daily workload of their personnel and improve their productivity without compromising quality or user satisfaction.

Additionally, SmartChem® cuvettes are being washed after each use, making them available for the next reaction/measurement and reducing your dependence on consumables and their availability.

With capacity to load up to 100 reagent bottles, SmartChem® 600 is a truly versatile analyzer to automate your laboratory’s routine and free your personnel to address other important tasks.

Available Configurations
The SmartChem® system is modular, allowing you to configure your analyze.
Ready-to-Use Reagents
We offer a full range of enzymatic and colorimetric reagents dedicated to our SmartChem® range of discrete analyzers.
Developed, tested and validated by our application laboratory, they guarantee perfect stability and reproducibility of your analyses.
Very easy to use, they are liquid, supplied in specific bottles made for SmartChem®, and automatically detected by the barcode reader (optional). This ready-to-go solution simplifies the preparation of your analysis and facilitates the use and storage of reagents. It also secures your analyses with reagents adapted to your application and your instrument.

The SmartChem® 600 analyzer’s operation is completely computer based with the dedicated, intuitive and user-friendly software. This software is bidirectional LIMS and NELAC/EPA or NELAC-EPA compliant.
SmartChem® software simplifies routine work and allows complete control and operation of the analyzer to the operator controlling the on-board reagent stock, samples, controls and calibrators, plus the status of the cuvettes in the reaction chamber.

System Monitor
SmartChem® 600 software simplifies routine work and allows complete control and operation of the analyzer to the operator controlling the on-board reagent stock, samples, controls and calibrators, plus the status of the cuvettes in the reaction chamber.

Calibration Curve
Operators can access calibration status, use curves and historic calibration data, as well as monitor the status of specific tests, reaction curves and other on-going testing data.

Workplan Setup
The operator can easily load reagents and samples using the optional SmartChem® barcode reader and design the work routine for the analyzer to run, defining tests to run per sample, calibrations, and QC controls, etc.
Reflex and re-tests IF-THEN instances can be programmed, allowing specific actions to be automated in case of out-of-range results and/or any instances defined by the testing routine being defined by the laboratory.

Ongoing Analysis
The operator can, at any moment, see the status of each sample, reagent content per bottle and other information during the programmed run, plus enter new reagents and samples while the unit is running an already launched program.

Workplan Results
During and at the end of the routine, the operator can access the tests reports and results.

Levey-Jennings Graph
Quality controls can be evaluated via Levey-Jennings plots and results from the run can also be validated.
