9. MAINTENANCE
The analyzer is designed for trouble free operation and requires minimum
maintenance. For good functioning of the analyzer it is advisable to follow the
instructions given below
1. Handle the analyzer with care and keep it clean.
2. When not in use, cover the analyzer with the dust cover to avoid
accumulation of dust.
3. Though air conditioning is not a must, it is advisable to keep the analyzer in
a dust free, cool atmosphere, away from direct sunlight.
9.1. DAILY MAINTENANCE

1. Wipe off any reagent spills on the analyzer immediately.
2. After every chemistry run, wash the flowcell thoroughly with good quality
distilled water using the "fn" key.
3. Always leave the flowcell filled with distilled water. Never leave any reaction
mixture in it.
4. At the end of each day, aspirate Erba cleaning solution into the flowcell and
leave it filled overnight. Every morning aspirate distilled water 5-6 ml to
thoroughly rinse the flowcell.
5. Empty the waste solution bottle every evening.
Caution: DO NOT USE STRONG ACIDIC OR ALKALINE
SOLUTIONS WHICH CAN CAUSE IRREPAIRABLE DAMAGE TO
THE ANALYZER.
Caution: DO NOT LEAVE THE FLOWCELL DRY. ALWAYS LEAVE

IT FILLED WITH DISTILLED WATER DURING THE DAY AND
WITH CLEANING SOLUTION AT NIGHT.
NOTE: It is advisable to carry out the peristaltic pump calibration every week in
order to compensate for the change in elasticity of the tubing.
9.2. QUATERLY MAINTENANCE

Replace the aspiration tubing and peristaltic pump tubing once every THREE
months (as explained below) or earlier if it shows signs of wear and tear.
NOTE: Failure to change the peristaltic pump tubing in time can cause serious
errors of aspiration volumes and can also damage the analyzer due to the leakage
of corrosive reagents through torn tubing. Also, the change in peristaltic pump
tubing should be followed by Pump Calibration procedure.
9-1
Besides the above, certain other simple maintenance operations have to be

performed as and when required.
These are:
 Replacement of the paper roll
 Replacement of tubing’s
