This invention relates to an analytical sample
cuvette timer holder (10), comprising: a plurality of identical vertical sample
cuvette containers (541-544) for vertically storing analytical sample cuvettes (20'), each analytical sample
cuvette (20') being provided with a readable analysis type indicator (26) indicating the analysis type (ty), wherein each sample cuvette container (541-544) is provided with a
signal device (551-554); a single independent sample cuvette reader
station (52), the sample cuvette reader
station (52) having an indicator reader (32) for reading the analysis type indicator (26) of the analytical sample cuvette (20), and a dispensing device for dispensing the analytical sample cuvettes (20) to the sample cuvette containers (541-544). (46), and an electronic
time management device (40), the electronic
time management device (40) being connected to the indicator reader (32), the
signal device (551-554) and the allocation device (46), wherein the electronic
time management device (40) is provided with an analysis type timing
library (49), the analysis type timing
library (49) having stored reaction times (Tr) for at least two different analysis types (ty), and wherein the electronic time management device (40) is provided with a
timer coordination unit (48), the
timer coordination unit (48) activating the
signal device (551-554) of the allocated sample cuvette storage container (541-544) when the reaction time (Tr) for the analysis type (ty) identified by the sample cuvette reader
station (52) has expired.
