Care and maintenance
Cleaning
• Do not autoclave or heat any part above 45 °C.
• Do not expose to alcohols or organic solvents!*
• Never use abrasive detergents.
• If using radioactive reagents, decontaminate
the unit with a cleaning agent such as
Contrad 70
™ or Decon 90 ™ .
Rinse the tank, cassettes, and sponges with
distilled water immediately after each use. Allow
the unit to air dry completely. Periodically wash
with a dilute solution of a mild detergent.
Removing the electrode panel(s)
For more thorough cleaning or to replace
damaged electrodes, remove each electrode panel
by unscrewing the retaining screw far enough to
allow the panel to slide out. Use the hook on the
side panel to pull the electrode panel up (do not
pull the panel up by the banana plug). Take care
to not stretch or break the platinum wire when
handling the panel.
* Use ≤20% methanol (methyl
alcohol) in transfer buffers is the
only exception.
