Vacuum System
The vacuum pump is responsible for the aspiration of liquid from MTUs in the magnetic wash
station and deactivation queue. The aspirated waste is deposited in Liquid Waste Container 1.
The vacuum gauge is located behind the TCR Door in the upper left corner above the Sample
Carousel. Under normal operating conditions, the vacuum level should meet the pressure
requirements listed in "Vacuum Pressure Requirements" on page 1-22.
The vacuum system contains a filter which prevents aerosols from being released into the
laboratory. The filter will be replaced by Novartis Diagnostics authorized personnel during
periodic maintenance. For more information about vacuum maintenance or filter replacement,
contact Novartis Diagnostics Technical Service.
Power Switch and Circuit Breaker Switch
The analyzer power switch is located to the right of the Sample Bay.
The circuit breaker is located above the main power cord at the rear of the analyzer. Leave the
main circuit breaker power on (in the "up" position) at all times.
Caution: The power input panel should only be accessed by Novartis Diagnostics
personnel.
