Maintenance procedure on Icon-5 analyzers

 

These steps must be performed by trained service engineer! Please note the following 
warnings:

 

 

WARNING 

Risk of personal injury. Movements of motors are controlled by limited 
current. Do not override built-in safety measures, do not short circuit fuses 

 

 

BIOHAZARD 

Risk of biological infection, contamination 

 

WARNING 

The analyzer should only be operated without covers with extreme 
caution, moving parts can cause injury. High Voltage board HVDCDC 
produces 180VDC. 

Service marked components only when the power source is disconnected. 

 

WARNING 

Risk of personal injury. The ceramic shear valve has a sharp needle 
installed. Avoid touching the needle 

 

To prepare the Icon-5 for the maintenance, please, shut down the analyzer and pinch 
the reagent pickup tubes using the clamps provided in the reagent pickup tube set, 
and remove both side covers to get easy access to the inner components.
