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.
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:
Risk of electric shock. Disconnect power before servicing.
Only trained personnel may open the case enclosure.
Earth ground bonding connector. Do not remove or
disconnect.
