What to do if there is no rotor installed or the drive belt is loose or broken in Beckman Coulter Avanti J-E Laboratory Equipment?
Install the rotor according to the applicable rotor manual. If the rotor is installed when the message appears, contact Beckman Coulter service.
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.
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 latches are not operating properly in Beckman Coulter Avanti J-E Laboratory Equipment?
Press down on the door and press [DOOR]. If closing the door repeatedly doesn't solve the problem, gently clean the latch area with a lintless swab, being careful not to damage sensitive electronics. Warning: Do not put your fingers into the latch openings. Press [CE] to clear the message.
What to do if rotor load is severely out of balance in Beckman Coulter Avanti J-E?
Ensure tubes or bottles are loaded symmetrically in the rotor. For swinging bucket rotors, lubricate the pivot pins where the buckets contact, as described in the applicable rotor manual. Unlubricated pivot pins can prevent the buckets from reaching a horizontal position, causing imbalance.
What to do if Beckman Coulter tubes with snap-on caps are leaking?
If tubes with snap-on caps are leaking in your Beckman Coulter equipment, ensure the tube is not too full; the meniscus must be kept lower to prevent leakage.
Why is my Beckman Coulter bottle leaking (uncapped bottles)?
If an uncapped bottle is leaking in your Beckman Coulter equipment, it is likely because the bottle is too full. The meniscus must be kept lower to prevent leakage.
What to do if Beckman Coulter Quick-Seal tubes are leaking?
If Quick-Seal tubes are leaking in your Beckman Coulter equipment, it's likely due to improper sealing. After heat-sealing, gently squeeze the tube to test the seal for leaks. If the tube leaks, reseal it.
How to prevent Beckman Coulter tube leakage?
To prevent tube leakage in your Beckman Coulter equipment, ensure that caps are properly seated on tubes and fully tightened. Also, make sure all cap components are thoroughly dry before assembly.
What to do if adapters stick in Beckman Coulter buckets?
To prevent adapters from sticking in buckets after centrifugation in your Beckman Coulter equipment, apply a thin film of powder, such as talcum powder, to the tube adapter rubber bases after cleaning or as required.
