Purging the Pressure Lines
The LabChip GX Touch software provides a Purge Pressure Lines
function to improve instrument performance. A positive pressure is
applied to the lines and removes any potential liquid or debris out of
the lines through the chip interface.
Purge the pressure lines at the start of each day, before inserting a
chip.
To purge the pressure lines:
1 If a chip is already inserted into the instrument, remove the chip
and close the chip door (see page 41).
2 Touch the Purge Pressure Lines button on the Home Window.
The Status Window opens. The purge is complete when the Run
Status displays “Purge successfully completed” and the
instrument status returns to Idle.
