Procedure
Set Up the Chamber Rack
1
Make sure that the water circulator is filled to the appropriate level. See the
VWR Operator Manual
, VWR
part # 110-229.
2
Turn on the water circulator. Set it to a temperature that brings the Chamber Rack to 44°C at equilibrium.
This temperature can vary depending on facility ambient conditions.
A
Chamber rack
B
Water circulator with programmable temperature controls
C
Reservoir cover
3
Confirm the actual temperature using the chamber rack temperature probe.
The temperature displayed on the water circulator screen can differ from the chamber rack temperature.
4
Remove bubbles trapped in the chamber rack.
a
Separate the heat exchanger from the reagent pan.
b
Lift the heat exchanger upright and away from you with the tubing at the bottom, and turn 90°
counter clockwise.
c
Return the heat exchanger to a horizontal position.
d
Repeat steps
and
3 times for a total of 4 rotations or until all bubbles are removed.
e
Using Kimwipes dampened with laboratory-grade water, clean all surfaces between the heat
exchanger and reagent pan. Discard Kimwipes with formamide waste.
f
Place the Te-Flow back on the reagent pan. Using the two guide pins in the reagent pan, make sure
that the Te-Flow is flush.
