Upon completion of the
currently running extraction method, the progress bar will show 100% completion. The Current
Step changes to Completed after a run is finished. After a method is completed, you can touch
the
Open Door
button to open the door of the Maxwell
®
CSC 48 Instrument and remove the
deck trays.
Close the caps of the elution tubes, and remove the tubes from the deck trays (Figure 44). Verify
that all the cartridges have a plunger in well #8. Remove the deck trays by gripping them firmly
by the elution tube position, lifting up and pulling each tray out (see Figure 45). The deck trays
may be warm to the touch after a run is completed. Exercise caution while removing the deck
trays. If there were cartridges missing plungers, proceed to Section 6.3 to remove them by
running the Clean Up method. The extracted material is present in the elution tubes. Remove
the cartridges and plungers from the Maxwell
®
RSC/CSC 48 Deck Trays.
