6.2 Cleaning an AquaLab TDL
Follow the cleaning procedures listed below. If you run out of solu-
tion, you can use isopropyl alcohol (IPA) instead.
6.3 Cleaning Procedure:
Cleaning your AquaLab is a multi-step procedure which involves
washing, rinsing, and drying for each specific area as outlined be-
low. (Refer to Figure 2 at the beginning of this section to identify
component locations for cleaning.)
1. Cleaning the Sample Chamber
(a) Remove any debris that may have collected within or
around the sample chamber.
(b) Wrap a NEW Kimwipe around the end of the spatula
(thin plastic rod) and moisten it with cleaning solution.
Note: Do NOT dip a used Kimwipe into your cleaning
solution (the cleaning solution becomes contaminated).
(c) WASH — Clean upper chamber, o-ring, and all surfaces
of the block within the o-ring. You may need to replace
the Kimwipe if it becomes too dirty during this process.
(d) Clean lower block with a fresh Kimwipe. Be sure to clean
the entire block surface.
(e) RINSE — Repeat steps b through d using new Kimwipes
with deionized water.
(f) DRY — Repeat steps b through d using new, dry Kimwipes
to help remove any moisture remaining from the cleaning.
Note: Do not reuse Kimwipes.
