Open the centrifuge lid and the centrifuge arm, check that the bowl is not leaking, and make sure that all clamps of bowl set and waste bag are open. If there is a leak, press X to exit and display the current screen, unload the pump loop and remove the disposable. Clean the centrifuge housing and sensor, install a new disposable, start a new case and eventually reopen the case from the Tally Screen. If there is no leak, clean the ‘Centrifuge Fluid Loss’ sensor with a dry cloth, make sure the bowl set is mounted properly, close the centrifuge lid and press X to exit and display the current screen. You may decide to disable the sensor and the related alarm for the current case by pressing DISABLE ALARM.

Sandra StantonAug 26, 2025
If the reservoir is not empty, check the air sensor, make sure the tubing going to the bowl is seated properly inside the sensor and the fill line is not occluded/clamped. Press FILL to resume. If this is the last cycle, press LAST BOWL (only if enabled) to automatically complete the case. You can also press CONCENTRATE to start the concentration phase or RETURN (only if present) to return the blood into the reservoir. If the bowl is sufficiently packed with RBCs, you may decide to press WASH to proceed to the Wash phase or 2XWASH to use twice the saline solution.
