1-8 Operator’s Manual – OPTI CCA-TS
Standard Reference Cassettes (SRCs) (Fig. 1-14)
are reusable sensor cassettes used for daily quality
control testing. SRCs can be found in the storage
compartment of your analyzer. Each new analyzer
comes with a level 1 and a level 3 SRC. Level 2
SRCs are available if desired. SRCs should be kept
in their pouches when not in use (see section 4.5 for
instructions).
The reusable tHb Calibration Cassette (Fig. 1-15)
is used for the quarterly calibration of the OPTI
CCA-TS Analyzer (See Section 6.3 Quarterly
Maintenance - Performing tHb Calibration).
During calibration, the OPTI CCA-TS uses a
precision gas which is completely self-contained
in a disposable low-pressure bottle. The bottle is
inserted on the right side of the unit after scanning
the bar code (Fig. 1-16).
Congratulations!
You have just learned the basic components of the analyzer and are now ready to install your
system.
