System Overview The Luminex 100E analyzer consists of three subsystems: electronic,
fluidic, and optical. An air filter fits under the front cover of the
analyzer. There is no user access to the optics.
User-Accessible
Components
The following section describes the user-accessible components of
each subsystem, where applicable.
Power Input
Connector
The power input connector receives power when connected to an
external source. The power input connector is shipped with a plastic
cap. Remove the cap to access the 21-pin connector. The 21-pin
cylindrical connector supplies the power for several different
components of the Luminex 100E analyzer, including the fan,
syringe pump, backflush valve, sample valve, analog board, digital
board, red laser, and green laser.
