1
Ensure the cytometer is not acquiring events.
2
Detach the waste container’s sensor and fluid line from the fluidics cart
waste port.
• Pull the sensor straight out.
• Press the metal clip on the fluid line.
3
Remove the disposable waste cap and attached trap from the container;
place the assembly on the bench label-side up.
The waste tank can become pressurized when the cytometer is running.
Always disconnect the tank from the fluidics cart before you empty it. Wait
at least 30 seconds for pressure to dissipate before you remove the waste
cap or level sensor cap.
Do not wet the cap. If you see liquid inside the trap, remove the drain plug
and fully drain the liquid before you replace the plug.
