Horiba ABX Optical Lamp – Pentra 400 (P/N 1300028830)

What is it:

The Horiba ABX Optical Lamp (P/N 1300028830) is a genuine HORIBA replacement lamp for the ABX Pentra 400 / Pentra C400 clinical chemistry analyzer. It's a service part — the light source for the analyzer's photometric measurement system.

What it's used for:

The optical lamp is the light source behind every result your Pentra 400 produces. The analyzer measures how much light a reaction mixture absorbs at specific wavelengths to quantify each analyte, and that measurement depends on a stable, bright lamp. Like any bulb, it dims with use and eventually fails — and as it ages, you'll see photometric errors, lamp-energy warnings, blank/calibration failures, or drifting results. Replacing the lamp on schedule (or at the first sign of energy warnings) restores reliable photometry and keeps the analyzer producing accurate results.

FAQs:

What is the Horiba ABX Optical Lamp used for?

It's the light source for the Pentra 400 / C400's photometric measurement system. The analyzer quantifies analytes by measuring light absorbance, so a stable, bright lamp is essential to accurate results. It's a wear part that's replaced periodically as it dims.

Which analyzer is P/N 1300028830 compatible with?

The HORIBA ABX Pentra 400 / Pentra C400 clinical chemistry analyzer. Lamps for other instruments are different parts.

How do I know when the lamp needs replacing?

Common signs include lamp-energy warnings, photometric or blank-measurement errors, calibration failures, and drifting or unstable results. Many labs also replace the lamp on a scheduled preventive-maintenance interval before it fails outright, to avoid unplanned downtime.

Is this a genuine HORIBA part?

Yes. This is a genuine HORIBA ABX service part, P/N 1300028830 — the same part number distributed through major channels.
