The program board allows user-defined or Gambro BCT-validated protocols to be
programmed for efficient and repeatable automatic cell processing procedures.

lights, and push button controls located on the main control panel. There are
additional controls on the secondary control located behind the right panel door.

Depending on the version of your COBE 2991, four or five valves control the flow
of fluids into and out of the cell processing set.
