This instrument is intended for clinical and research laboratory use and it must be operated
only by specialized personnel aware of the potential risks associated with the chemical and
biological agents normally used with this unit. This instrument is meant for use only by
specialized personnel that know the health risks associated with blue light radiation and with
reagents that are normally used with this instrument. It is designed to shield only the person
working in front of the system and to observe the gel fluorescence emission clearly.
Maintenance and Repair
Cleaning and Maintenance
The transilluminator should be damply wiped off with a soft cotton cloth. The cloth should not
be too wet. Do not use aggressive cleaning detergents or solvents.
After use of the transilluminator, we recommend to wipe off the frame and the filter glass with
a damp cloth. Take care that the cloth is not soaked with scrubbing or corrosive detergents
as this could damage the filter glass. We suggest using alcohol, glass cleaners or similar
mild detergents.
Pay attention to wearing appropriate gloves when cleaning areas (as the filter plate of the
transilluminator, switches, protection shield) which may have been in contact with carcino-
genic or toxic reagents. The protection shield is made of tempered glass and must only be
cleaned with a damp cloth.
