8F/8MF models: Vacuum Filtration Maintenance
Run the predefined link protocol
VAC30_TEST
with disinfectant as the fluid
supply to clean the tubing and hardware used to perform filter plate assays.
DAY_RINSE
Flush the washer with an appropriate reagent at the beginning of the day,
using a buffer solution
on the same day the microplates are washed.
This helps
prevent the aspirate and dispense tubes from clogging between washes.
