“CYANExpert 130" icon on the computer desktop. The login menu will appear. NOTE: The CYANExpert 130 is a system that allows configuration with different reagents selected by the customer in order to fit his needs. Upon delivery, the instrument is configured for the validated biochemistry kits of Cypress Diagnostics.
LATE DESCRIPTION: The reaction plate of the CYANExpert 130 contains 6 semi-disposable racks with 20 reaction cuvettes each. The racks can be removed individually. However, it is recommended to replace them together. The basic operating cycle of the reaction plate takes 26 seconds. This cycle includes the optic reading of the cuvettes in incubation, the aspiration and dispensation of the reagents and the samples by the arm, along with the relative positioning of the plate.
Sample racks can be continuously loaded during running. The CYANExpert 130 is delivered with 4 racks for primary tubes. They each contain 8 sample positions and 8 corresponding predilution positions. This rack can be used with primary tubes and 3 ml cups.
5. The arm is raised from the washing well and moves to the specified sample while aspirating a third air bubble; 6. Once the level sensor detects the presence of liquid, the arm stops and aspirates the sample; CYANExpert 130 User Manual Rev.02, Feb 2014...

All these operations are part of the routine operation of the instrument. Every reaction cuvette is washed at the end of each round of analysis and the reusability (optical integrity) of each reaction cuvette is also tested, thus before the next round of analysis.

How often the bottles must be cleaned depends on their use and on the quality of the distilled water used in that particular laboratory. However, Cypress Diagnostics recommends thorough washing at least once every two weeks. 1) Turn OFF the CYANExpert 130 analyser.

How often the hydraulic circuit must be washed depends on the operating conditions/environment of the single instrument and on the quality of the distilled water used in that particular laboratory. Cypress Diagnostics recommends thorough washing at least once a month.

Over time and through normal use, the perfect transparency of the cuvettes diminishes. This has a negative impact on the quality of the optical readings. Cypress Diagnostics suggests that the cuvettes are replaced after three to six months of use. The cuvettes racks are located inside the reaction plate.
Page 125
7) Turn ON the CYANExpert 130 and wait until the instrument has reached its proper operating temperature. 8) Have the instrument carry out a ‘Wash cuvettes’ cycle and then a ‘WBL’ cycle. Check the system efficiency by comparing the WBL values and the test results obtained against the laboratory’s quality control values.
