3.4 Servicing the DSX Automated ELISA System
3.4.1 Servicing Modules
The incubator modules, the detector module, the ambient drawer and the washer module
are readily removed from the DYNEX Technologies DSX Automated ELISA System. When
a problem is identified in one of these modules, the normal service operation is to replace
the entire module and return the defective one to a service center.
Typically, the replacement module will be sent via express and the user can install the
replacement module.
The service engineer is expected to perform the following activities on-site for the
incubator modules, the detector module, the ambient drawer and the washer module:
Replacement of consumable items, such as the lamp in the detector module or
tubing in the wash module.
Changing components to meet the need of a different assay (for example, changing
a filter).
Simple repairs that can be readily performed in a short period of time.
3.4.2 Servicing Non-Modular Components
Other components of the system, such as the XYZ pipetting arm or the power distribution
are not modular. For these items, the service engineer is expected to determine the problem
and perform the necessary service on-site.
