12.3 Clean TD chambers and diluted sample lines (Shutdown)
Executing a Shutdown cleans TD chambers and diluted sample lines.
Therefore, the TD chambers and diluted sample lines must be
cleaned at the end of the day’s analysis. Run the Shutdown when a
day’s analysis is completed. Perform this procedure at least once
every 24 hours if the instrument is on continuously.
(1) Press the [Shutdown] button at the Ready status.
The Shutdown confirmation message will appear.
In case the [Cancel] button is pressed, the Shutdown is
canceled, and the instrument returns to the Main screen.
Caution!
If the Shutdown sequence is not performed, protein
may build up inside the instrument. This can cause
incorrect analysis results or damage the instrument.
Note:
• If 24 hours have passed and Shutdown has not been
performed, a message appears prompting the operator to
perform Shutdown.
• It takes approx. 5 minutes to complete the Shutdown
sequence.
