5.1 SAFETY AND HINTS ABOUT
CLEANING/
DECONTAMINATION
Electric shock or mechanical injury by mains supply
If the instrument is not separated from the mains supply before performing
maintenance, this will cause serious injuries with deadly consequences due to
electric shock. Additionally, there is the danger that the instrument could start and
cause injury (e.g. contusion, cuts etc.) to the person working with the instrument.
• Switch off the instrument, separate it from the mains supply and protect it
against restarting.
• Make sure that nobody is working on the instrument and that all covers are
attached and closed before reconnecting the instrument to the mains supply.
• Only start cleaning, disinfection, decontamination, maintenance or repair
work when instrument is secured.
Defects in the liquid system
Defect or leaky tubes, valves or pumps lead to deterioration of the pipetting results
and consequently corruption of final results. Furthermore incorrectly flushed tips
can cause mixing up of sample material.
• Check the instrument for drops and pooling of liquid on surfaces.
• Check tubes, valves or pumps periodically.
