ADVIA® Chemistry XPT System Replacing DPP Probe Video

This video provides instructions on how to replace the DPP probe on the ADVIA® Chemistry XPT System.

replace the deep probe, 1st put the system in standby, then open the top left cover. Lift open the DP noise reduction cover. Remove the CT and STT covers. And the probe guide cover. Lift and manually rotate the probe to an accessible location, such as over the sample tray. Cover the cuvet, Swash cups and other analyzer services with lint free towels to catch any screws that may fall. Loosen, but do not remove the screws on each side of the probe arm cover. Be careful when applying pressure to the probe arm when the system is in standby mode, the probe moves easily and there's potential for crashing the probe. Remove the probe arm cover and set it aside. Loosened, but do not remove the liquid level sensing wire screw. And the ground wire screw. Release the liquid level sensing wire. And the ground wire. Securely hold the probe arm and open the two spring clips by grasping each at the side closest to the black wire and gently raising each to an open unlocked position. Remove the knurled fitting from the probe coupling by turning it counterclockwise. Release the probe coupling from the white Holder fastened to the probe arm. Use a towel to catch the fluid that will come out of the probe. Lift and remove the old probe by holding the probe coupling and flange. Discard the old probe as biohazard material. Locate and carefully insert the new probe through the guide hole until the flange is properly seated. Snap the probe coupling back in the white Holder. Slide the neural fitting into the probe coupling and carefully tighten it until snug. Be careful not to force the neural fitting too far. Reconnect the black ground wire under the ground wire screw and washer, then tighten the screw. Avoid flexing the wire more than necessary. The liquid level sensing capability may be adversely affected if the ground wire screw does not fully tighten or the standoffs pins. If the standoff pin turns when trying to tighten the ground wire, tighten the standoff pins screw on the probe arm base until the standoff no longer spins. Reconnect the orange liquid level sensing wire under the liquid level sensing screw and washer, then tighten the screw. Verify that the probe is well seated to ensure that there's a good connection for proper liquid level sensing. Carefully close each spring clip over the probe. Lift up the probe arm. Manually rotate the probe over the probe wash Cup, but not within the wash port. Then turn the switch in the front of the system all of the way to the right to bring the system into operate mode. Select system operations. Then initialize after the system has initialized. Select system operations. Select prime. Select prime 2. Enter 10 or more for the number of times in all fields. Select perform. And then OK. Verify that no water is leaking from the knurled fitting. Replace the probe guide, cover Qty and STT covers. Replace the probe arm cover and tighten the cover screws. Complete the procedure by closing all the covers.
