Maintenance
For reliable daily operation, keep the instrument free of dust and liquid
spills.
Abrasive cleaning agents are not recommended, because they are likely
to damage the paint finish.
It is recommended that you clean the case of the instrument
periodically to maintain its good appearance. A soft cloth dampened in
a warm, mild detergent solution will be sufficient.
Clean the outside of the instrument and the turntable with clean low-
pressure compressed air or a cloth dampened with water or a mild
detergent when necessary.
Although the PLEX-ID SP is constructed from high-quality materials,
you must immediately wipe away spilt saline solutions, solvents, acids
or alkaline solutions from outer surfaces to prevent damage.
Caution
Painted surfaces can be cleaned with most laboratory
detergents. Dilute the cleaning agent as recommended by the
manufacturer. Do not expose the surfaces to concentrated acids or
concentrated alcohols for prolonged periods of time as damage may
occur.
▲
Clean the display areas with a mild laboratory detergent. The keyboard
has a wipe-clean surface.
Plastic covers and surfaces can be cleaned with a mild laboratory
detergent or alcohol.
Warning
If any surfaces are contaminated with biohazardous material,
a mild sterilizing solution should be used.
▲
Caution
Do not autoclave any part of this instrument except the shield
plate.
▲
Keep the turntable surface clean to avoid dust and dirt entering into the
instrument. Clean the turntable surface at least once a week using a soft
cloth or tissue paper soaked in a mild detergent solution (SDS), soap
solution or alcohol.
