Maintenance instructions
Machine Type: The electrolyte analyzer.
Cleaning: 3 days (Auto)
Maintenance interval depending on different sample tests/day:
Tests/day 0-20 20-50 50-100 100-300
De-protein 1 weeks 3 days 1 days 1 days
Condition 2 weeks 1 week 1 week 1 week
Refill Electrode 2-3 months
QC suggest do one middle each day, one high, middle&lower each week
Tips:
1. The De-protein can clean up both the membrane and flow path of the
electrodes.
2. The Condition only use for pH Na electrodes. Because the
membrane(glass material) of these electrodes are different from others.
3. When samples more than 300 per day, interval: 3 days for De-protein; one
week for Condition. Since the high quantity tests, it may cause blockage
problems. Kindly note avoiding absorb the blood clot when testing the
serum.
4. The De-protein solution can’t be stored. After mix with reactive dilution or
opened, it should be used up.(Same as the condition solutions)
5. When there have no de-protein solution, please using air ball to absorb the
dirt out. Do not use the needle or sharp things. Otherwise it will cause
damage to the membrane.
6. Information of consumables(Intervals of Replacement).
Taik tubes: 1 year
Pump tubes: about 1 year
Refill solution of ISE: Half a year/six months must be replaced (when the
solution inside consumed and less than 1/2, please refill it)
O-rings: half a year or six months (Kindly note the O-ring of multiplexer
should be replaced too)
7. Cleaning up the flow path intervals:
Clean up Teck tube Pump tubes Probe and Probe tie-in.
More than 50 samples per day: three month
Less than 50 samples per day: half a year
For Multiplexer cover: half a year
Using syringe clean the flow path. When the teck tubes turned to white. It
will cause blockage problems. I suggest use the 84 liquids(chemistry
formula: NaClO).
Pure or 50% is ok. Remember to take off the electrodes, these kind of
liquids will cause damage to the membrane.
