3Ć13 Maintaining the System
Weekly Maintenance
The weekly maintenance schedule is based on analyzing 30 samples per day,
unless otherwise noted. If your laboratory analyzes more than 30 samples per day,
perform weekly maintenance more frequently.
Use this procedure to clean the sample path with deproteinizer once a week or
every 210 samples. Deproteinizing removes protein buildup from the sample path.
Deproteinizing the Sample Path
NOTE: If your system has a CO-ox module, follow the procedure described for
the appropriate base model. For example, information identified for an 860 also
applies to an 865.
Materials required:
S deproteinizer
S aspiration adapter
S glucose and lactate test/blank sensors (TB4)
1.
Prepare the deproteinizer as directed on the package.
2. Access the Deproteinize screen from the Menu screen:
a. Select 2 Maintenance and press Enter .
b. Select 1 Deproteinize and press Enter .
CAUTION: Do not expose the glucose and lactate biosensors to deproteinizer.
Replace the biosensors with the test/blank sensors (TB4) before deproteinizing.
Reinstall the biosensors within 2 hours.
CAUTION: Do not remove or return the sensors to the measurement module
without first discharging static buildup. Touch the inner surface of the module
frame to discharge static buildup.
3. Take the appropriate action.
If you have an . . . Then . . .
840 or 850 go to step 4.
860 a. Remove the glucose and lactate biosensors.
b. Install the test/blank sensors.
c. Go to step 4.
4. Invert the deproteinizer vial several times to mix.
