Maintenance of Equipment
DCode system with lid
Remove core and clamps from tank. Replace assembly
buffer inside tank with distilled water, turn pump on for
1–2 minutes to rinse pump. Remove water from tank.
Core, cell, clamps
Rinse thoroughly with distilled water after use.
Glass plates, spacers, combs
Wash with a laboratory detergent (catalog #161-0722) then
rinse with distilled water.
Always inspect the DCode tank, cable, and whole system. Replace any damaged
components before use. Damaged parts are to be repaired by Bio-Rad trained personnel
with Bio-Rad approved components only.
The controller retains its tuning parameters in non-volatile memory for 10 years without power.
