Flushing the BD LSRFortessa system
Introduction
This topic describes the procedure for flushing the BD LSRFortessa
system. Flush the system every two weeks.
About the stainless
steel sheath
containers
The cytometer system is shipped with a stainless steel container for
sheath fluid. This container is replaced by the sheath cubitainer
when the BD FACSFlow supply system is installed. Save the
stainless steel container and tubing and use it when flushing the
system.
Caution!
Replace and tighten all caps when
reassembling the containers and cubitainers. Loose
caps can result in fluid leakage.
