Replace sheath pump tubing
In general, we recommend that you replace peristaltic pump tubing for the sheath
line (Cat. No. A33297) when prompted by the instrument. Normally, the sample
pump tubing needs to be replaced every 10 weeks based on 20 hours per week
average run time (or every 200 hours of run time).
IMPORTANT!
When handling the tubing, make sure that it does not become
twisted or kinked.

pump tubing
1.
Shut down the instrument and unplug before replacing any tubing. Once the
Shut Down is complete, open the fluidics compartment door and slide the
compartment out for easy access.
2.
The sheath pump is located next to the helper pump in the fluidics door. It has
two tubes requiring replacement, both located in the same compartment and
pushed against the pump roller assembly by a clamping bracket.

Before removing the sheath pump tubing, clamp the incoming and outgoing
sheath fluid lines using hemostats. This will stop any potential leaks or
pressure drops in the system.
