Total – Cycle Counts tells you the total cycles performed by the instrument during its lifetime.
Every 20,000 cycles a Machine time for service warning is issued to prompt the user to
arrange a service visit. The Service Counter will be reset as part of the service visit.
Note: When a maintenance warning pops up, the instrument does not stop functioning: it is
only a notice for you to schedule routine service. The number of cycles remaining until the
next warning displays is not shown.
The system will also count the cycles for each cartridge type. If the user operates the
IntelliXcap with two different kinds of cartridges, it counts and records the cycles separately for
each type.
The Cartridge warning can be removed by pressing the Reset button.
Over time, the cartridges will need replacement, (recommended after every 5000 cycles).
Waste Disposal
Switchboards, motors, cables and other electronics must be demounted and treated separately
according to local law.
Metal parts are disposed of as scrap metal.
