Rinse/Soak the Fluid Path
Daily Maintenance
Daily maintenance involves flushing the washer with an appropriate reagent or
deionized water throughout the day. Routinely rinsing the washer helps to
prevent the aspirate and dispense tubes from clogging between washes.
The recommended
rinsing frequency
depends on the wash solutions currently
in use:
•
If a solution containing surfactant is used throughout the day, the rinsing
procedure should be performed if the washer is idle for more than 3 hours.
•
If the solution does not contain surfactant, consider rinsing at least once an
hour.
The
DAY_RINSE
and
AUTOPRIME
programs described below and on the
following page satisfy daily maintenance requirements.
DAY_RINSE
The
DAY_RINSE
Maintenance program primes the washer with the
Prime
Volume
specified in the
P_DAY_RINSE
prime program. To view or edit the
parameters in this Prime program, see
Prime Programs
on page 107.
