A short preventive maintenance including volume verification should be carried out twice
yearly. Typically, the service and volume verification are carried out by a trained HAMILTON
service engineer.
To clean the instrument deck use the procedures required by GLP. To preserve plastic
materials from damage, do not use organic solvents.
If a spray is used, do not point the spray directly at the autoload unit or at electrical boards or
connectors.

The Microlab STAR will be verified by a trained HAMILTON technician upon initial set-up,
and thereafter at regular intervals for a period of time specified by service agreements.
HAMILTON recommends that this verification take place four times yearly.
For volume verification in the field, HAMILTON will supply a verification tool, based on
gravimetrical measurements (the “gold standard” of volume verification). The detailed
specifications are listed in the specification table at the end of this chapter.
Conditions are valid only for the HAMILTON verification kit.
