As Needed Maintenance Job Aid

This job aid provides instructions on how to perform as needed maintenance on the ADVIA Centaur® XPT system.

As Needed Maintenance Cleaning the Reagent Probe Shutter 1. Turn the system mechanics off, and then use the key to unlock the top cover. Lift open the cover and the reagent probes cover 2. Remove the primary reagent packs and refrigerate them 3. Push the reagent probe assemblies toward the incubation ring by pushing the motors 4. Remove the reagent probe shutter by lifting the shutter drive arm up and off the shutter drive and sliding the shutter to the left. Lift the shutter out of the system 5. Wipe the shutter with lint-free tissue with cleaning solution, then rinse with water and thoroughly dry 6. Wipe the surface under the shutter with lint- free tissue with cleaning solution, then rinse with water and thoroughly dry 7. Install the shutter by sliding it to the right until the screw slots are under the screws. Place the shutter arm down on the shutter drive 8. Replace the reagent probes cover, close the top cover, and turn the system mechanics on As Needed HILS340 Effective date 09/04/2014 Maintenance Cleaning the Probe Rinse Stations 1. Turn the system mechanics off, and then use the key to unlock the top cover. Lift open the cover and the reagent probes cover 2. Push the reagent, ancillary, and sample probe assemblies toward the incubation ring by pushing the motors 3. Use a transfer pipette to add ~1mL of cleaning solution to each rinse station, then swirl with small maintenance brush. Remove the cleaning solution with a transfer pipette 4. Clean the rinse station with lint-free tissue with cleaning solution, and then rinse the rinse station with lint-free tissue with reagent water 5. Reinstall the reagent probes cover, close the top cover, and turn the system mechanics back on HILS340 Effective date 09/04/2014 Cleaning the Primary Reagent Compartment 1. Turn the system mechanics off, and then use the key to unlock the top cover. Lift open the cover and the reagent probes cover 2. Remove the primary reagent packs from the system and refrigerate them 3. Wipe excess water from the primary reagent compartment, and then wipe the surfaces of the compartment with lint-free tissue with water 4. If reagent has spilled onto the reagent pack holders, wipe them with lint-free tissue with water 5. Dry the primary reagent compartment 6. Reinstall the reagent probes cover, close the top cover, and turn the system mechanics back on HILS340 Effective date 09/04/2014 Cleaning the Cuvette Waste Chute 1. Open the cuvette waste area door, and remove empty sample tip trays and covers from the tip tray bin 2. Lift the tip tray bin up and then out of the system. 3. Remove the cuvette waste chute by releasing it from the magnetic fitting. Slightly rotate the cuvette waste chute, then pull it out and down 4. Clean the cuvette waste chute with the large maintenance brush and cleaning solution, and then rinse the chute with DI water Cli 5. Dry the inside of the chute with paper towels 6. Install the cuvette waste chute by place the locator pins at the bottom of the chute in the reservoir. Lift the top of the chute until it attaches to the magnetic fitting 7. Install the sample tip tray bin. Install the cuvette waste bin and close the door HILS340 Effective date 09/04/2014 Cleaning the Sample Tip Waste Tube 1. Turn the system mechanics off, and then use the key to unlock the top cover. Lift open the cover, and push the sample and ancillary probes back toward the incubation ring 2. Loosen the knurled knob on the sample tip remover, and lift the sample tip remover and sample tip waste tube out of the system 3. Unscrew the sample tip waste tube from the sample tip remover 4. Soak the sample tip remover and sample tip waste tube in cleaning solution for 5 minutes 5. Clean the inside of the sample tip waste tube with cleaning solution and the large maintenance brush 6. Rinse the sample tip remover and sample tip waste tube with water, and then dry thoroughly 7. Connect the sample tip remover to the sample tip waste tube 8. With the slot on the sample tip remover facing away from you, place the bottom of the sample tip waste tube into the opening below the sample probe. Align the 2 holes on the right side with the locator pins on the mounting block. Turn the knurled knob until the sample tip remover is secure 9. Close the top cover, and turn the system mechanics back on HILS340 Effective date 09/04/2014 Cleaning the Sample Tip Waste Chute 1. Turn the system mechanics off, and then open the sample tip waste area door and remove the sample tip waste bin 2. Pull out the drawer and lift the lid to the cleaning solution. Ensure the lid remains in the upright position. Wipe the cleaning solution tubing with fresh lint-free tissue to remove excess cleaning solution. Remove the cleaning solution bottle 3. Remove the sample tip waste chute 4. Soak the sample tip waste chute in cleaning solution for 5 minutes 5. While the sample tip waste chute is soaking, wipe the sample tip waste reservoir with lint-free tissue with cleaning solution, and then wipe the reservoir with lint-free tissue with water. Dry the sample tip waste reservoir with lint-free tissue 6. When the sample tip waste chute has finished soaking, clean the chute with the large maintenance brush, and then rinse with water and thoroughly dry the chute 7. Install the sample tip waste chute onto the system with the bottom of the chute in the reservoir 8. Install the cleaning solution bottle and the sample tip waste bin. Close the sample tip waste area door, and turn the system mechanics back on HILS340 Effective date 09/04/2014 Cleaning the Covers, Keyboard, and Mouse Cleaning the Sample Barcode Scanner 1. Carefully clean the following components with lint- 1. Turn the system mechanics off free tissue with cleaning solution: 2. Access the scanner by reaching your hand over and Sample entry queue • behind the housing Exterior covers • Sample exit queue 3. Carefully wipe the scanner with an alcohol prep pad • Ancillary entry • Stat entry 4. Turn the system mechanics back on • Keyboard • Mouse • System fluids tray • Tray under the system fluids reservoirs • 2. Rinse the components with lint-free tissue with water 3. Dry the components thoroughly HILS340 Effective date 09/04/2014
