9. Solutions ABL90 FLEX reference manual
9-2
General information
The ABL90 FLEX analyzer utilizes a solution pack for all calibrations, QC and
rinse procedures, and for the collection of waste fluids.
The solution pack contains eight foil pouches:
Three with calibration solution
One with a gas mixture
Three with quality control solution
One for waste
One of the calibration solutions (CAL 1) is also used for rinse.
Calibration solutions and QC solutions in the solution pack have a unique lot
number. Assigned values for the QC solutions are unique for each individual
solution pack because they are adjusted according to the lifetime of the solution
pack when installed on the analyzer.
Each solution pack has a lot number, which identifies the solution packs
assembled in one production lot.
All the solutions described in this chapter are for in vitro diagnostic use.
The expiration date of the solution pack is found on the solution pack barcode
label. A solution pack can be used on the analyzer for up to 30 days (or until no
more activities are left) but not after the expiration date. This means that if you
install a solution pack 5 days before the expiration date, it can only be used for
5 days.
The solution pack storage temperature range is 2-25 °C. The storage altitude
range is sea level to 4000 meters. The barometer pressure should lie between
450-800 mmHg, or 60.0-106.7 kPa, or 450-800 Torr.
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all solutions in the solution pack are
available from your Radiometer distributor.
