Replacing the sheath cubitainer

Introduction
About the probe
Procedure
This topic describes the procedure for replacing the sheath
cubitainer.
The sensor probe connected to the sheath cap assembly is almost as
deep as the sheath cubitainer. This design ensures that most of the
sheath fluid in the cubitainer is used. Inserting the sheath probe at
a 45-degree angle prevents it from hitting the bottom of the
cubitainer.
Caution! The sheath sensor probe is fragile. Handle it
carefully to avoid breaking it. When removing or
inserting the sensor probe, tilt it at a 45-degree angle.
To replace the sheath cubitainer:
1. Loosen the sheath sensor probe cap assembly and carefully
remove the sensor probe from the sheath cubitainer, keeping it
at a 45-degree angle.
2. Place the sensor probe into the black probe holder (see the
following image) on the side of the BD FACSFlow supply
system unit.
3. Load the new sheath fluid cubitainer into the left side of the
BD FACSFlow supply system unit.
