AUTOCLAVING
The pipette shaft of the ErgoOne
autoclaved at 121 °C (250 °F) at a pressure of 2 bar (30 psi) with a
holding time of at least 15 minutes according to DIN EN 285.
ATTENTION:
The handgrip can not be autoclaved!
1.
Eject the pipette tip.
2.
Unscrew the pipette shaft from the grip.
3.
Autoclave the complete pipette shaft without
any further disassembling.
4.
Allow the pipette shaft to completely cool
and dry.
5.
Screw the pipette shaft into the grip again.
6.
Perform a reference run (rEF).
NOTE:
The effectiveness of the autoclaving
must be verified by the user.
Maximum reliability is obtained with
vacuum sterilization. We recommend
the use of sterilization bags.
If the pipette shaft is autoclaved frequently, then the
piston should be oiled with the supplied silicone oil in
order to provide smoother movement.
REFERENCE RUN (REF)
A manual reference run must be completed each time the pipette shaft is reattached to the
handle. The reference run is needed to assure secure connection of the piston.
What to do
1.
Bring up rEF mode
2.
Perform the
reference run
NOTE:
After the reference run, the display automatically returns to the previous program.
