Sheath Delivery
System Setup
When adjusting the Luminex 100 regulator, turn it clockwise as far
as it will go to the fully closed position, then turn it back 1/2 of a
turn. Be careful not to force the regulator past the fully closed
position.
Do not move the Sheath Delivery (SD) system or the sheath line
while the system is in use.
Replacing the
Sheath Delivery
System with Sheath
Bottles
You may need to replace the Sheath Delivery (SD) system with
sheath bottles for maintenance or troubleshooting, as directed by
Luminex Technical Support.
‹
To replace the SD system with sheath bottles:
1. Power off and disconnect the SD system from the Luminex 100.
2. Turn the black regulator screw inside the center door of the
Luminex 100 one full turn counter-clockwise.
3. Attach the sheath and waste bottle containers. Make sure there is
sheath fluid in the bottle (to the fill line) and the sheath cap is
tightened.
4. Prime the system.
5. As the system is priming, adjust the black regulator screw inside
the center door of the Luminex 100. Turn clockwise to increase
or counterclockwise to decrease, until the sheath pressure value
is within +/- 0.1 psi of the normal level of your instrument.
6. When the prime function is complete, loosen the sheath bottle
cap to release pressure.
7. Tighten sheath cap and prime the system once again.
8. Make sure that the sheath and air pressure values increase to the
normal level once again.
Do not move the sheath bottle or sheath line while the system is in
use.
