Step 1: Peristaltic pump tube replacement
Frequency:
1 year or 10,000
samples
part#: HAT800B or HAT800C
(Included in kit)
Pump tubes must be replaced regularly. The tube material will wear with time and use of
the analyzer.
Failure to replace the tubes will results in deepening cracks on the tube material which will
eventually lead to leaks and reduction or failure in liquid movement.
The wash head will slowly fail to remove waste from the sampling needle washing
procedure. RBC sample processing errors (variation, instability of results) and in extreme
cases waste collector overflow may be the consequences.
Remove the pump module (open the
two screws fixing the module to the
assembly plate)
Remove the pump cassette by
pressing it on its sides and then
pulling it away from the pump.
