What to do if rotor calibration error in Beckman Coulter Avanti J-E Laboratory Equipment?
Make sure the rotor in use is a compatible Beckman Coulter rotor (see AVAILABLE ROTORS in Section 1). For further assistance, contact Beckman Coulter service.
What to do if there is no rotor installed in Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment?
If your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment indicates that there is no rotor installed, or that the drive belt is loose or broken, first install the rotor according to the applicable rotor manual. If the rotor is installed when the message appears, contact Beckman Coulter Customer Service.
What to do if required vacuum level not reached in Beckman Coulter Avanti J-E Laboratory Equipment?
If your Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment is not reaching the required vacuum level in the allowed time, check and clean the door sealing area and door gasket. Also, wipe any ice and excess moisture from the chamber. If the issue continues, contact Beckman Coulter Customer Service.
What is the reason for leakage of uncapped tubes in Beckman Coulter equipment?
If uncapped tubes are leaking in your Beckman Coulter equipment, it's likely because the tube volume exceeds the maximum uncapped volume.
What to do if the system cannot identify the rotor in Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment?
Make sure the rotor in use is a compatible Beckman Coulter rotor (see AVAILABLE ROTORS in Section 1). For further assistance, contact Beckman Coulter service.
What to do if there is a problem with the system control software, EPROM, or RAM in Beckman Coulter Avanti J-E Laboratory Equipment?
Call Beckman Coulter service.
What to do if the entered rotor number is not the same as the rotor identified in Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment?
Press [CE] to clear the message and enter the correct rotor entry code.
What to do if required vacuum level is not reached in allowed time in Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment?
Check and clean the door sealing area and door gasket. Wipe any ice and excess moisture from the chamber. For further assistance, contact Beckman Coulter service.
Why are my Beckman Coulter tubes collapsing?
Tube collapse in Beckman Coulter equipment can occur due to several reasons: * Insufficient thinwall tube volume: The meniscus should be 2 to 3 mm below the tube top to provide adequate tube wall support. * Moisture: Ensure that tubes and tube cavities or buckets are dry before inserting the tubes, as moisture can cause the tube to float and collapse. * Reagent incompatibility: Refer to Chemical Resistances for chemical compatibilities of the tube material and chemicals used. * Excessive speed: Refer to the applicable rotor manual for maximum speeds to ensure tubes are not run above their rated speed.
Why is my Beckman Coulter bottle leaking (bottles with cap assemblies)?
Leakage in bottles with cap assemblies in Beckman Coulter equipment can occur due to: * Moisture or lubrication on the cap or sealing surface. Ensure the O-ring, plug, and bottle lip are dry and free of lubrication before use. * A damaged or defective O-ring or gasket. Replace the O-ring or gasket. * Insufficiently tightened cap. Tighten the cap securely. * An uneven sealing surface on the bottle. Replace the bottle. * Overfilled tube. If using threaded caps without inserts or O-rings, keep the meniscus lower to prevent leakage.
