The REAGENTS SETTINGS makes the REAGENTS STATUS icon turn from GREEN to YELLOW to RED,
depending on the remaining reuse life of the reagents (for example 1 day, 1 cycle and/or 1 full cassette rack,
as described in the chapter 2.16).
Example, if reagent cassettes alert status is set at 210 and a reagent checked for the processed cassettes
has a limit of 630, the REAGENTS STATUS icon is green until 419 cassettes (one full rack before reaching
the limit); then turns to yellow from 420 to 629 and then to red at 630 cassettes. When RED, processing
cannot be launched. Reagent status icon with different colors is shown below.
4.2 Reagents replacement procedure
4.2.1
Handle with care and store in a cold dry space using a tightly closed container.
Vapors may collect in empty containers. Treat empty containers as hazardous.
Waste material should be disposed of in an approved incinerator or in a designated landfill
site, in compliance with all federal, provincial and local government regulation.
Some reagents can have potential health effects and cause environmental pollution if not
correctly disposed.
For further information please refer to the MSDS (Material Data Safety Sheet) provided by
your supplier.
In case a reagent is used in at least 2 tanks, only when it has expired in all the tanks where
this is in use, the reagent status icon becomes red.
For the correct use of tanks please refer to chapter 2.14.
