Mag Wash Clean

The Mag Wash Clean maintenance task removes deposits that can build up inside the
aspirators and associated tubing. This task can be run at any time the system is in the
Setup or Ready state. The task takes 31 minutes to complete and can be scheduled to
run during non-operating hours (see Schedule an Automated Maintenance Task on page
193). If the system is scheduled to run the cleaning task automatically, the system will
transition out of the Power Save state to complete this task.
This task should be performed for the following:
As part of system maintenance
It is required that this task be performed daily after each testing day. For example, if
processing test orders on Monday–Friday, schedule the Mag Wash Clean task to be
run after working hours on Monday–Friday (see Example Mag Wash Maintenance
Tasks Cleaning Schedules on page 200).
As part of the resolution for Mag Wash station errors
If Magnetic Wash aspiration errors occur, perform this procedure following assay
processing or as directed by Hologic Technical Support.
