H. MAINTENANCE
i. General information
The Andrew+ Robot does not require periodic maintenance, if
used properly and in a clean environment. Nevertheless, it is
possible to carry out periodic checks and very simple actions
to guarantee the best status and results of the Andrew+
Robot.
ii. Recommended maintenance if the Andrew+ Robot
is moved
If the Andrew+ Robot is moved, we strongly suggest cleaning
the silicone mat on the bottom of the baseplate using acetone.
By doing so, the required gripping between the Andrew+
Robot and the bench is guaranteed. The bench to which the
Andrew+ Robot will be moved must be cleaned as well.
iii. Compatible solvents with the Andrew+ Robot
To clean all the parts of the Andrew+ Robot, the compatibility
with the following solvents have been tested:
Isopropanol alcohol
■
Ethanol
■
2% bleach solution.
■
Use of soft tissue to clean all the Andrew+
Robot parts to avoid possible scratches on
their surfaces.
DO NOT clean the electronical connectors
present in the tool stand, waste Domino and
base plate.
iv. Pipette best practices
1. No stickers should be added on the pipettes sides to avoid
grabbing performances degradation.
2. Monthly electromagnets cleaning with alcohol/IPA is
recommended to keep good connectivity and avoid pipette
detection issues in the Andrew+ Robot's hand (a guide could
be generated).
