Autoloader/Offload Track
When viewed from the front of the system, the autoloader is on the left and holds up to
25 sample racks in preparation for presentation to the DxC 800 system. The DxC 600
system has room to load a maximum of 14 racks. (Refer to
Figure 2.4 .)
There is also space for 25 sample racks in the offload track as they are removed from
the Sample Carousel upon completion. Combined, these two components allow for
over one hour of uninterrupted sample processing, with no operator intervention
involved.
Figure 2.4 Sample Loading Area
Priority Load Position
Between the Autoloader and the Sample Gate is the Priority Load position. This
position is used in conjunction with the PRIORITY LOAD button when a rack is to be
loaded onto the Sample Carousel into a reserved priority position so that it can be run
in a higher priority than other racks on the Autoloader. (Refer to
Figure 2.4 .)
NOTICE
When loading racks onto the autoloader, make sure that they are placed firmly
down into the autoloader.
