General care
•
When cleaning optical elements, use only optical-grade materials to avoid
scratching soft lens coatings. We recommend using TexWipe
™
TX761MD
Microdenier Swabs (Cat. No. A36701) and deionized water.
•
Use the appropriate cleaning solutions for each component, as indicated in the
instructions for cleaning and decontamination.
IMPORTANT!
Always use the correct power supply. The power adapter
specifications appear on the serial number label and in the Electrical safety section
(page 136). Damage due to an incompatible power adapter is not covered by
warranty.
CAUTION!
Never disassemble or service the instrument yourself. Do not
remove any covers or parts that require the use of a tool to obtain access to
moving parts. Operators must be trained before being allowed to perform
the hazardous operation. Unauthorized repairs may damage the instrument
or alter its functionality, which may void your warranty. Contact your local
distributor to arrange for service.
IMPORTANT!
If you have any doubt about the compatibility of decontamination or
cleaning agents with parts of the equipment or with material contained in it,
contact Technical Support (page 139) or your local iSort

distributor for information.
Cleaning procedures
Clean the sort
chamber and the
sample input port
Before running a sort or analysis, clean the sample input port and the sort
chamber, including the sort drawer, door, deflection plates (which can be
removed), and stream watch camera window (located between the deflection
plates). To clean the instrument surfaces and the stream watch camera window,
you can use Kimwipes
™
laboratory tissues (or other soft, lint free cloth).
IMPORTANT!
Do not use abrasive cloths or sponges and harsh or corrosive
cleansers as they can damage the lenses.
1. Wipe the sort drawer, the door, the stream watch camera window, and the
deflection plates with sterile deionized water to remove dried salt residue, then
wipe dry with Kimwipes
™ tissues.
Note:
The deflection plates must remain clean and dry for optimal deflection.
2. Blot any liquid from the nozzle tip, the floor of the sort chamber, and the
sample input port with Kimwipes
™ tissues.
