1 Introduction
These operating instructions contain all the information required for installation, operation
and maintenance of the D-ONE modules. This chapter informs about the symbols used in
these operating instructions, the intended use of D-ONE and the general safety
instructions.
1.1 Symbols used
The operating instructions specifically advise of residual risks with the following symbols:
W
ARNING
This safety symbol warns against hazards that could result in injury. It also
indicates hazards for machinery, materials and the environment.
It is essential that you follow the corresponding precautions.
C
AUTION
This symbol cautions against potential material damage or the loss of data in
a microprocessor controller. Follow the instructions.
N
OTE
This symbol identifies important notes regarding the correct operation of the
device and labor-saving features.
1.2 Intended use
This is a general-purpose laboratory instrument for use in research only. Any use of this
instrument in a medical or IVD setting is under the sole responsibility of the user.
This product may only be operated in a secure, protected network with validated,
trustworthy clients. The operator must ensure that network security measures are always
up-to-date and state-of-the-art. This product may not be directly exposed to the internet.
If the D-ONE modules are used in a manner not specified by INTEGRA Biosciences, the
protection provided by the D-ONE may be impaired.
D-ONE are microprocessor controlled and stepper motor driven pipetting modules with
two channels, one of which can be used at a time. They are used on the ASSIST PLUS
pipetting robot for aspirating and dispensing aqueous liquids in the volume range of 0.5 –
1250 μl using GripTip™ pipette tips only. Each D-ONE module is compatible with two
different GripTip sizes and provides pressure-based liquid level detection.
