Introduction
A platelet shaker is a laboratory device used for the gentle agitation of the platelet concentrates and the blood products during the storage, and it is used in the blood banks, the clinical, the transfusion, and the many other applications. The platelet shaker provides the continuous gentle agitation of the platelet bags or the containers, which prevents the platelet aggregation and maintains the quality of the platelets, and it provides the controlled temperature, with the storage of the platelets at the recommended temperature; the platelet shaker consists of a platform with the holders for the platelet bags, an agitation mechanism, a heating or a temperature control system, and the controls, and it provides the continuous agitation; the platelet shaker is used for the storage and the agitation of the platelet concentrates in the blood banks, for the transport of the platelets, for the clinical use, and for many other applications, and it is available in various capacities; the platelet shaker is an essential equipment for the platelet storage. Platelet shakers are used in the blood banks, in the clinical, in the transfusion, in the hospitals, and for many other applications. With their gentle agitation, platelet shakers are essential for the platelet quality maintenance.

FAQ
Q1: What testing scenarios is this shaker mainly applied to?
A: The platelet shaker is used in blood banks, hospitals, transfusion centers, clinical laboratories and healthcare facilities to provide continuous gentle agitation of platelet concentrates during storage to maintain platelet viability and function for transfusion medicine. It supports blood bank platelet concentrate storage, hospital transfusion service platelet management, clinical laboratory platelet preparation, apheresis platelet storage, and platelet quality monitoring. Platelets require continuous gentle agitation during storage (typically 20-24 degrees C) to maintain viability and prevent aggregation, making the platelet shaker essential equipment in blood banking and transfusion medicine.
Q2: What standards does the shaker comply with?
A: The platelet shaker complies with relevant IEC 61010 laboratory electrical safety standards, IEC 61674 for medical electrical equipment, applicable GB/T standards for blood bank equipment, and relevant medical device regulations (FDA, CE, NMPA). The instrument follows applicable electromagnetic compatibility standards. Platelet storage follows applicable blood banking standards (AABB, FDA, national blood transfusion regulations). Temperature monitoring (if integrated) should be calibrated.
Q3: What is the warranty period for the whole machine and key components?
A: The whole platelet shaker is covered by a 12-month warranty. The motor, shaking mechanism, controller, platform and housing are covered, while platelet bags/holders and fuses are accessories or consumables. Damage from improper use or unauthorized repair is excluded. Extended service contracts are available for this critical blood bank equipment.
Q4: Is this device difficult to operate? Is professional training required?
A: Operation requires trained blood bank or clinical laboratory personnel familiar with platelet storage and transfusion medicine. We provide operation manuals, training and application support. Proper platelet bag loading, speed setting, temperature monitoring (if integrated), alarm response, quality control and regulatory compliance are important for platelet safety and viability.
Q5: What is the typical lead-time for order delivery?
A: Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.
Q6: Is regular calibration required? What is the recommended calibration cycle?
A: Speed calibration recommended every 6-12 months. Timer and alarm verification periodically. Motor and mechanism checked per schedule. Temperature calibration (if integrated) every 6-12 months. Routine cleaning of platform and holders. Full system performance verification annually for blood bank use.
Q7: Are supporting consumables universal?
A: Platelet bags, holders and fuses are available from blood banking suppliers, though compatibility should be verified. Long-term consumable cost depends on platelet volume.
Q8: Can I customize parameters or supporting accessories?
A: Customization includes platform capacity, speed range, temperature control (integrated incubator), alarm features, data logging, connectivity and accessories. Additional platelet holders and accessories can be ordered separately. Custom orders extend delivery lead-time.
Q9: Does the purchase include on-site installation and commissioning service?
A: Standard delivery includes the platelet shaker and accessories with an operation manual. On-site installation, calibration and training are not included for standard orders but can be arranged for blood bank setup. Remote guidance is provided.
Q10: What types of samples are compatible with this equipment?
A: The platelet shaker agitates platelet concentrates in standard platelet storage bags within the platform capacity, speed range and specification. Platelets should be stored at 20-24 degrees C with continuous gentle agitation per blood banking standards. Different bag sizes may require specific holders. Users should load platelet bags properly, maintain continuous agitation (do not stop during storage except for inspection/issue), maintain proper storage temperature (20-24 degrees C), monitor platelet quality per blood bank standards, follow proper inventory management (first-in-first-out), document all storage conditions per regulatory requirements, and for transfusion, follow applicable blood banking standards (AABB, FDA). The shaker should be placed in a temperature-controlled room or integrated incubator. The platform should be cleaned regularly, especially after blood spills (follow biosafety procedures). The shaking mechanism should be maintained per manufacturer schedule. Alarm systems should be tested regularly. For critical platelet storage, backup power (UPS/generator) is strongly recommended to prevent loss of agitation during power outages. Platelets should not be refrigerated, as this causes irreversible platelet activation and loss of function.
