SmartChem® 800 Discrete Analyzer: built for high throughput commercial labs

The SmartChem® 800 is KPM Analytics' newest addition to its discrete analyzer range, engineered for high throughput wet chemistry in modern commercial laboratories. Fully automated and designed for true walk away operation, it delivers fast, reliable photometric analysis at scale, up to 800 samples loaded at once and throughput of up to 600 tests per hour.

Filmed at Analytica 2026, where the SmartChem® 800 met its audience for the first time, this video features Claudio Strino, Product Manager for Wet Chemistry at KPM Analytics, explaining the thinking behind the platform.

What you will learn in this video:

• Why lab consolidation and rising sample turnaround are reshaping commercial lab needs
• How an integrated multimedia library and in software tips help new operators become autonomous in as little as two days
• The sustainability design behind the SmartChem® 800: reusable, individually replaceable cuvettes and dedicated drain lines that separate hazardous from normal waste, reducing hazardous waste management to roughly 30 to 35 percent of total waste
• How onboard refrigeration for reagents and samples (around 10°C via external chiller) protects sensitive parameters such as ammonia, free and total chlorine, and pH
• How the platform is designed to support labs today while keeping them ready for what comes next
