What to do if the door stays locked after rotor stops spinning in Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment?
If the door of the Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment stays locked after the rotor stops spinning, restart the centrifuge and perform a brief run. If the door still does not open after deceleration, contact Beckman Coulter Field Service.
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.
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.
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 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.
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 the foot pedal was depressed prematurely on Beckman Coulter Avanti J-HC Laboratory Equipment?
If the foot pedal was depressed before the end of a run on the Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment, press CE and attempt to restart the run. If this does not work, contact Beckman Coulter Field Service.
What to do if there is a drive system problem with Beckman Coulter Avanti J-HC?
If the Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment indicates a drive system problem (such as over current, over/under voltage components, or over temperature), call Beckman Coulter Field Service. Before opening the door, carefully listen to ensure that the rotor is not spinning. Then, follow the directions for accessing the rotor in case of power failure.
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.
How to resolve a system error on Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment?
If the Beckman Coulter Laboratory Equipment displays a system error, it is recommended to call Beckman Coulter Field Service for assistance.
