4.2 Exterior Cleaning

4.3Piston Seal Replacement

The BioOptix 10 system pumps the wash fluid, flushing the Buffer In lines, gradient formation components, pump, and purge lines. (See Figure B-6 in Appendix B.)

For general cleaning of the enclosure, use distilled water with a mild detergent. Use isopropyl alcohol for tougher stains. Avoid rubbing vigorously or using aggressive solvents like acetone on printed areas.

CAUTION

Do not immerse the instrument in a water bath. The instrument is not watertight and this action could damage the internal electronics.

Should pump performance degrade, the piston seals should be replaced.

To replace the piston seals:

WARNING

Risk of electric shock. Disconnect power before servicing. Only trained personnel may open the case enclosure.

WARNING

Earth ground bonding connector. Do not remove or disconnect.
