7 Maintenance of NucleoCounter NC-200
991-0203 Rev. 1.1 Sep. 2012 18
7.1.3 Spill of liquid
If liquid has been spilled on the instrument it can contaminate elements of the optical
system. This contamination can show up in the image in several ways and have many
causes but a common feature is that it cannot be removed by the use of compressed air.
Even though such phenomena are clearly visible on the image it only rarely affects the
results of the NucleoCounter NC-200. Since it is possible to damage the optical system
while attempting to clean the system, it is recommended that ChemoMetec A/S should be
consulted before the user attempts such cleaning.
7.2 Decontamination
In case decontamination of the NucleoCounter NC-200 is required, please contact
ChemoMetec A/S before taking action.
