3.8 Post-experiment

Operation

3.8.1 Pump Flush

At the completion of the experiment, the BioOptix 10 provides
the option to flush the pumps (Figure 3-10). The pump flush will
pass a wash fluid through the pumps to prevent salts from crys-
tallizing in the system.

CAUTION

Salts will cause premature wear to the internal components
and eventually pump failure.

If another experiment will be started immediately, this flush can
be skipped. Otherwise, if the system will remain idle for a few
hours or even overnight, the pump flush is recommended.

Flush the pumps for
storage
