Loading Bulk Solutions
Alkaline and Acid Wash Solution Loading
CAUTION: Chemical Hazard. Refer to Appendix,
Hazards of this manual.
Procedure:
NOTE: The Wash Solutions should not be changed when the
System status is RUN, PAUSE, or SAMPLING END because
the System is using the Wash Solutions at these times.
NOTE: If the “86 - Inventory Empty, Alkaline Wash” or “87 -
Inventory Empty, Acid Wash” Error Log Messages are generated
during a run, the System automatically goes into a PAUSE
status. No further samples are aspirated, but the samples already
dispensed continue to process. Once the Run Progress bar (in the
lower left-hand screen) indicates that all the samples have been
processed, select <STOP> to change the status to READY.
1. Ensure the System status is READY prior to loading the Wash
Solution.
2. Open the front-right door of the Analyzer.
3. Remove the used Wash Solution bottle.
4. Remove the cap and tubing from the used bottle.
5. Remove the cap from the new wash solution bottle.
6. Insert the tubing into the new bottle and seat the cap on the bottle
opening. Firmly press down on the cap to secure it on the opening.
Ensure the cap covers the threads on the neck of the bottle, and
the tubing is inserted to reach the bottom of the bottle.
7. Place the bottle securely on the tray.
8. Close the front-right door of the Analyzer.
9. Perform the Wash Cuvettes option of the START UP procedure.
