CHAPTER 3
Error Recovery Procedures
Introduction
This chapter provides information to identify and resolve errors related to the Aliquot
module, and system operational errors that are not specific to any Power Express module.
Note
For error recovery information for specific Power Express modules, refer to the
appropriate Power Express module Instructions for Use.
Warning
Always operate the system with all shields and doors in position and secured to avoid
injury.
Perform system operations with caution.
Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as gloves, eye shields, and lab coats.
Wash hands thoroughly after contact with sample media and all maintenance
activities.
Observe all laboratory policies and procedures related to the handling of
biohazardous materials.
Refer to the applicable sources (such as Material Safety Data Sheets) for specific
hazard information.
Caution
Before you perform an error recovery procedure, confirm the module is stopped.
When the module is stopped, the control panel turns red.
Caution
Even when the Level Detector, Labeler, or Aliquotter is in Stop or Pause mode, the air
system is still active and applies constant air pressure to the arm assemblies in each
component. This can cause unexpected movement of the arm assemblies, and create
a moving part or mechanical pinch hazard when you resolve jammed object errors.
Use caution when you resolve jammed object errors at the Level Detector, Labeler, or
Aliquotter component.
To resolve operational issues not discussed in this chapter, contact a Beckman Coulter
representative.
