2.4 Cleaning and Maintenance
To clean the peristaltic pump system after use, flush all tubes with distilled water for a few
minutes and then quickly with 70 % Ethanol (EtOH). Suck the tubes dry. Disconnect all tube
connectors and unscrew the caps of the compound or waste bottle. Empty the bottles and
wash them out. Take care not to mistake the tubing when reconnecting.
Warning: Make sure no liquid is sucked into the pump revolvers! This can lead to irreversible
damage. Empty the bottle after each experiment. Avoid remaining liquid in the bottle and
tubing, this can result in contamination.
