INSTALLATION
3-1 Introduction
3-1-1
This chapter explains how to locate information regarding installation of the CLINITEK?ATLAS?Rack
Sample Handler.
3-2 Installation
Refer to the Clinitek Atlas Automated Urine Chemistry Analyzer with Rack Sample Handler
Operating Manual, part number 99950239, Section 2, for instructions on installing this system.
3-2-1
In addition to the instructions in the operating manual, the following should be checked during the
installation:
1.
the waste tubing from the Clinitek Atlas system Rinse Well to the waste bottle must be fixed to
the rear wall without any sag. If there is a sag or stagnation of waste water in the waste tubing,
waste water may over-flow from the Rinse Well and electrical problems may then occur with the
Rack Sample Handler unit.
2.
The waste tubing must have a little slope towards the left side wall of the Atlas unit. The tube
end of the waste tubing must be cut so as to not touch the surface of the waste container, even
if this waste container becomes full.
3.
the system must be placed on a flat, stable and level surface for optimum performance.
NOTE: If problems are seen during an initial installation, the Mother PC Board connectors
may have come loose. See paragraph 9-6 on page 9.13 to access these connectors.
Then reseat all the connectors, using the paper guide printed on top of the card cage
and Figure 6-7 on page 6.9
