Information

The Icon-5 is a smart, 5-part differential hematology analyzer that sets new standards in terms of features, functions, and style. This iconic laboratory device combines cutting edge technology with a fresh and elegant design. The Icon-5 uses laser-based flow cytometry with forward-scattered light detection and volumetric impedance measuring method. It provides a 27-parameter complete blood cell count report that includes RBC and PLT histograms, as wells as a 5-part WBC scattergram. What makes this device special and innovative is its microfluidics technology that enables reagent consumption to be reduced by approximately 75% compared to other analyzers on the market. Furthermore, Icon-5 has one of the smallest dimensions (280 x 216 x 336 mm) within its class, which allows it to be used in Emergency Departments, ICUs, private clinics, blood banks, or perhaps even in mobile care units. Norma Icon-5 is changing the hematology landscape: there is no other analyzer like the Icon.
NORMA Instruments Zrt.H7.A38Norma Instruments is a Hungarian company specializing in the designing and manufacturing of high-quality and innovative blood analysis systems serving the in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) market. Since our company’s launch in 2012, Norma has grown into an international company that operates in nearly 80 countries today through a well-established and well-trained distribution network. Our product range consists of hematology analyzers and reagents for human medical and veterinary use. Norma Icon hematology analyzers can perform one of the most common hematology tests, the complete blood count (CBC), a quantitative test that counts the number of various white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets in human and animal blood. Norma was among the first companies to utilize microfluidic technologies (the blood samples used for the measurement pass through hairline tubes inside the device) in the development of hematology analyzers, which allowed us to develop the smallest hematology analyzers with the smallest sample volume processing and smallest reagent consumption in the world. Our innovations enable the analyzer to be used in point-of-care or near-patient testing environments, such as in Intensive Care Units, Emergency Departments, General Practitioner Offices, Blood Banks, Mobile Care Units. Since the launch of our company, Norma has acquired several patents and awards, from which the most outstanding were the International Red Dot Design Award in 2014, the Hungarian Millennium Innovation Award in 2016 and the Environmental Innovation Prize in 2018.
