BioOptix™ 10

Section 4 System Maintenance

4.1Periodic Maintenance The BioOptix 10 system’s internal components have been selected for long life and low maintenance. To maintain the system, the only required periodic maintenance is to flush the pumps daily. The pump flush passes a wash fluid through the pumps to prevent salt buffers from crystallizing in the system.

 

CAUTION

 

 

Salts will cause premature wear to the internal components

 

and eventually equipment failure. Flush the pumps daily to pre-

 

vent damage.

 

The BioOptix 10 system provides the option to flush the pump at

 

the end of a purification run (see section 3.8). If the system will

 

remain idle for a few hours or even overnight, a pump flush fol-

 

lowing the run is recommended.

 

The pump flush can also be initiated from a menu command.

Daily Pump Flush

1. Select Tools>Edit Pump Flush and review the settings. Save

 

any changes you’ve made.

 

2. Ensure the Buffer In lines are placed in containers of wash

 

fluid.

 

 

 

 

 

Note

 

 

 

Select a wash fluid that is strong enough to dissolve salts. The

 

 

 

wash fluid must also be miscible with buffer solution remaining

 

in the system from the previous run.

 

3. Select the Tools>Pump Flush menu command. This opens

 

the BioOptix 10 flush window (Figure 4-1).

 

4. Check the pump channels to be flushed. Then, click the

 

Start button.
