Fuse Replacement
9.5
It may be necessary to replace the fuse in the back of the 2900 Series. New fuses may be purchased from YSI or
obtained from many local electrical component suppliers. Be sure to obtain the correct fuse rating as indicated below.
CAUTION:
UNPLUG THE INSTRUMENT FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY
, then unplug the other end of the power cord
from the back of the instrument.
Using your fingers, grasp the right edge of the fuse holder and slide it out until it stops, then rotate it to the right to expose
the fuse. Only the upper compartment of the fuse holder is used. Carefully slide the fuse out of the fuse holder.

9.6.1 Tubing Replacement
Replacement of pump tubings, sample and waste line tubings and solenoid valve tubings is application-dependent. The
recommended replacement is 350 hours for the silicone waste tubing and 3 months for all other tubings, including the
PharMed
®
pump tubing, solenoid valve tubing, antiseptic tubing and sample source tubing. The 2990 Preventive
Maintenance Kit provides a complete set of tubings for the 2960.
If you elect to clean tubings, solutions such as 70% isopropanol, 0.5% hypochlorite, and mild detergents in water are
acceptable cleaning agents. Be certain you flush well with water before putting the 2960 back into use.
9.6.1.1 Pump Tubing Replacement
Before changing pump tubing, first study the tubing connections carefully. The peristaltic pump body is dual channel and
the roller assembly rotates
counterclockwise. The inlets for both sample and waste lines are on the right as you face the
mounted pump body. The sample lines and sample pump tubings are nearer the 2960 case. The waste line is closest to
you. The pump waste tubing contains a retainer (plastic washer) on the inlet (right) side of the pump. The sample pump
tubing contains a retainer (plastic washer) and a plastic tab attached on the inlet (right) side. Refer to the figure below for
diagrammatic details.
To change pump tubings, remove the two thumb screws securing the pump assembly to the 2960 and remove the pump.
Next, lower the pump body to a working surface, remove the two O-rings holding the pump together and separate the two
