Fluidics Station 400
index previous question next question
How often do I need to do maintenance on the fluidics station?
With normal use (e.g., 20 arrays/module/week), we recommend the following schedule: Every week, the needle bleaching protocol (i.e., "Bleach" fluidics protocol) should be performed; on a monthly basis, the full-fluidics bleaching protocol (i.e., "Monthly Decontamination" protocol) should be performed and the peristaltic-pump tubing replaced. Please refer to Section 4, Fluidics Station Maintenance Procedures, for more detail.
