Warning:
To prevent electrical shock, turn the power off to the instrument and
unplug the power cable during maintenance procedures.
7.1 Regular and preventive maintenance
7.1.1 General
Routine and service procedures must be performed by the user to prevent
unnecessary wear or hazards and are described below at the frequency with
which they should be applied.
For reliable daily operation, keep the instrument free of dust and spills from
liquids. It is also advisable to cover the instrument with the dust cover supplied
when not in use. In the event of any damage, contact your local Thermo
representative for service.
Abrasive cleaning agents are not recommended, because they are likely to
damage the paint finish.
It is recommended that you clean the case of the instrument periodically to
maintain its good appearance. A soft cloth dampened in a warm, mild detergent
solution will be sufficient.
Clean the outside of the instrument and the thermal microplate holder with
clean low-pressure compressed air or a cloth dampened with water or a mild
detergent when necessary.
Caution:
Painted surfaces can be cleaned with most laboratory detergents. Dilute
the cleaning agent as recommended by the manufacturer. Do not
expose painted surfaces to concentrated acids or alcohols for prolonged
periods of time as damage may occur.
Clean the keyboard with a mild laboratory detergent.
Plastic covers and surfaces can be cleaned with a mild laboratory detergent or
alcohol.
Warning:
If any surfaces have been contaminated with biohazardous material, a
mild sterilizing solution should be used. See Section 7.4.
Periodically inspect the connectors on the thermal microplate holders for dirt or
corrosion. If dirty or corroded, wipe the connectors with a soft cloth slightly
dampened with water.
7.1.2 Immediate
Wipe up all spills of liquids immediately from all surfaces of the instrument to
prevent leakage into the electronics and mechanics of the instrument. Clean
and decontaminate the surfaces if necessary.
Although the iEMS Incubator/Shaker is constructed from high-quality materials,
you must immediately wipe away spilled saline solutions, solvents, acids or
alkaline solutions from outer surfaces to prevent damage, and wipe with
deionized distilled aqua.
