P a g e 1 2 . 2 12-3501-20/12
Introduction
This chapter describes the different errors you might receive while operating
Phadia 100. During operation Phadia 100 continuously checks that the system
is working properly. If an abnormality is found, it results in an error or warning.
Many of these errors can be avoided if maintenance of
Phadia 100 is done carefully according to chapter 11, Maintenance, and reagents
are handled according to chapter 3, Reagent and Sample Handling.
There are six types of errors:
• Start up errors and warnings
• Operator interaction messages
• Preparation errors
• Processing errors
• Assay result errors
• Mechanical and electrical malfunction
Depending on the error type the operator will be provided with different kinds
of information regarding the error and how to eliminate it. In some cases the
instrument will stop the process until the error is eliminated. In other cases the
assay run will be aborted and the instrument will not produce any results.
Sometimes the instrument will produce results for the assay run, but it is up to
the operator to decide if the results are to be used.
Before contacting your local Phadia representative, please make a note of the
complete error message including the error code. Also note the instrument serial
number and software version number.
WARNING! Phadia 100 pipettes human body
fluids, which might be infected. When servicing
and maintaining Phadia 100, take precautions to
avoid direct contact with parts that have been in
contact with samples. Wear protective gloves!
