Centrifuge Well Fluid Container
The Centrifuge Well Fluid Container (see Figure 3-14) is a non sterile 250 ml capacity container used
to collect fluid (such as blood spillage or fluids used in cleaning) that may exit from the centrifuge well
drain via gravity drainage. The container is attached directly to the machine's drain port, located on
the receptacle under the centrifuge well of the X
TRA.
Figure 3-14 Centrifuge Well Fluid Container
The Centrifuge Well Fluid Container should remain attached to the XTRA at all times during processing
and should be emptied and cleaned or replaced after drainage is collected. If no drainage occurs, it is
not necessary to clean or replace the fluid container.
The Centrifuge Well Fluid Container is available with X
TRA and also separately from the company.
In case of fluid loss, please refer to “Centrifuge Well Fluid Container” on page 15-8.
CAUTION
In the event of problems with the automatic removal of the lid opening lock:
(a) do not attempt to force open the lid; (b) switching the machine off and on
might resolve the problem; (c) if the problem persists, contact authorized
technical service.
CAUTION
The fluid collected in the Centrifuge Well Collection may be biohazardous.
Handle accordingly and dispose of the container according to hospital
protocol.
