Bacteriological filter
Models fitted with a lumens cleaning
system (LCS) have a biological filter that must
be replaced every 500 cycles or if dirty. To
change the biological filter, follow these steps:
1.
Power the unit OFF and disconnect
tube A from the bacteriological filter and
remove the filter from the filter bracket.
2.
Note the orientation of the arrow mark on
the filter before removing. When the filter
is free of the bracket, carefully discon-
nect tube B from the back of the filter.
3.
Before installing the replacement
bacteriological filter (SciCan order no.
01-102119S) check that the arrow mark
on the filter matches the direction of
the arrow on the bracket. Push the
right hand filter fitting into tube B.
4.
Gently press the replacement filter
into the filter bracket. The arrow mark
of the filter should be facing out and
pointing to the right.
5.
Re-connect tube A to the left hand
filter fitting.
6.
After having replaced the filter, go to
the "Reset LCS counter" screen in the
Configuration menu and reset the coun-
ter to zero. (See Section 3.12)

Filter maintenance
Inspect the coarse and fine filters in the
bottom of the chamber daily for debris and
clean if necessary. To clean, remove the
filter (turn the metal nut at the centre front of
the filter to release it), rinse under a tap and
reassemble. Ensure that the filter is firmly
locked into position when replaced.
