Arkray Assure Platinum Blood Glucose Meter
Arkray Assure Platinum Blood Glucose Meter
Auto-Coding That Removes the Guesswork — and the Setup Errors
The Arkray Assure Platinum is an easy-to-use auto-coding blood glucose meter built to take the extra steps — and the guesswork — out of everyday testing. There are no code chips to match and no manual coding step, so there's one less chance for a setup error: the meter sets itself with every strip. A small 0.5 µL fingertip sample and about seven seconds are all it takes to show a reading on the large, backlit display, making it a comfortable fit for daily routines at home and in professional or multi-user settings.
With memory for up to 500 time- and date-stamped results plus 7-, 14-, and 30-day averages, it's a practical pick for following patterns over time. Thoughtful touches round it out — a touch-free strip-release button, an audible low-reading alert, the qcProGuard control-solution reminder, and a rubberized ProGrip case for a secure hold — and it runs on easy-to-find AAA batteries.
Key Features
- Auto-Coding: No code chips or manual coding — the meter sets itself with every strip.
- Fast, Small-Sample Testing: Results in about 7 seconds from a 0.5 µL fingertip sample.
- 500-Result Memory: Time- and date-stamped readings with 7-, 14-, and 30-day averaging.
- Backlit LCD: Large readout that stays easy to read in low light.
- Audible Low-Reading Alert: The "Hypo" alert can be set to flag low results audibly.
- Touch-Free Strip Release: Eject a used strip with a button — no handling required.
- qcProGuard Reminder: A 24-hour audible prompt for routine control-solution checks.
- ProGrip Case: Secure, slip-resistant rubberized housing.
- Practical Details: Top-of-meter strip insertion, plasma-referenced results, and 2 AAA batteries — no coin cells.
- System Match: Works with Assure Platinum strips and Assure control solution (sold separately).
Equipment Specialist Insight: This is the meter on its own — the test strips and control solution are bought separately, and the system is meter-specific, so only Assure Platinum strips work with it. The standout is the auto-coding: there's no code to enter, which removes one of the most common sources of testing error and keeps things simple in shared or multi-user settings. The touch-free strip ejector and the qcProGuard reminder are built around that same ease-of-use idea, and it runs on easy-to-find AAA batteries rather than coin cells. Stocking the matching Assure Platinum strips and control solution alongside it makes for a complete, easy reorder.

Q: Do I need to enter a code?
A: No — the Assure Platinum is an auto-coding meter, so it codes itself automatically when you insert a strip. There are no code chips to match and no manual step, which removes a common source of testing error.
Q: Which strips and control solution does it use?
A: It works only with Assure Platinum test strips and Assure control solution, both sold separately. The meter is calibrated for that system, so other brands of strips aren't interchangeable.
Q: What comes in the box, and what else do I need?
A: The meter with batteries and a user manual. To start testing you'll also need Assure Platinum test strips, a lancing device with lancets, and — for routine accuracy checks — Assure control solution.
