2.2 Workflows
2.2.1 Common Workflows

Figure 2.1 Analysis workflows

2.2.2 Workflow Descriptions


Sequential actions of sample probe in each period
Lower into the sample cuvette -> aspirate sample -> raise to “home” position
vertically -> rotate to reaction carousel -> lower into the reaction carousel ->
dispense sample -> raise to the specified height for washing -> rotate to wash
reservoir -> start to wash -> rotate to the sample rack or the sample carousel -> go
to next period

Sequential actions of probe R1 in each period


Lower into the reagent cuvette -> aspirate reagent -> raise to “home” position
vertically -> rotate to reaction carousel -> lower into the reaction carousel -> deliver
reagent -> raise to the specified height for washing -> rotate to wash reservoir ->
start to wash -> rotate to the reagent carousel -> go to next period

Sequential actions of probe R2 in each period


Lower into the reagent cuvette -> aspirate reagent -> raise to “home” position
vertically -> rotate to reaction carousel -> lower into the reaction carousel -> deliver
reagent -> raise to the specified height for washing -> rotate to wash reservoir ->
start to wash -> rotate to the reagent carousel -> go to next period

Sequential actions of reagent and sample mixers in each period


Both sample and reagent mix module has three mixers which perform phase-I wash,
phase-II wash and mix actions separately in each period. Two periods are required by
each mixer to complete washing. The mixer will start to work after the reaction
carousel stops.

2-8
The sequence is: Lower into the reaction carousel/wash reservoir -> clean during
mixing -> raise to the upper position of the reaction carousel/wash reservoir ->
rotate the mixer to washing/mixing position.

Sequential actions of reaction carousel


BS-800 chemistry analyzer provides 165 positions for reaction cuvettes; 4.5 seconds
for one cycle; one stop after one rotation. In one cycle (4.5 seconds), the carousel will
stop after 41 cuvettes rotated counterclockwise, complete adding samples, R1 and
R2.Altogether, four cycles are required for 164 reaction cuvettes; the cuvettes will
rotate one by one clockwise.

4.11 Photoelectric Unit
4.11.1 Functions
Chemistry analyzer is a typical precision instrument which features in optics,
mechanics, electronics and logarithm. The spectrophotometer is one of the key
components of the instrument and determines directly the precision and accuracy of
measurement by the system.
The BS-800 inherits the technology of reversed optics of holographic concave
flat-field gratings. The holographic concave flat-field gratings are used for optical
dispersion and imaging. It can not only simplify the optical design to compact the
optical structure, but also eliminate the stray light. A combined light passing through
the entrance slit projects on the PDA(Photodiode Array) via the concave flat-field
gratings. One or multiple light-activated elements on different positions receive the
monochromatic light at certain wavelength. During operation, the photometric
system controlled by the computer receives the electric signals produced by the
light-activated elements of corresponding wavelength and then converts them into
absorbance. In case the spectrum is defined, the absorbance at multiple wavelengths
can be calculated quickly.

4.11.2 Components and Structure


The BS-800/BS-820 applies direct lighting, the holographic concave flat-field
gratings and PDA(Photodiode Array) for photometric measurement. See the figure
below. The front lens converges the light beam sent from the tungsten-halogen lamp
to the reaction cuvette via the fiber bundle. The light beam passes through the
reaction cuvette and then converges at the entrance slit via the lens group 2. The
gratings divide the light beam from the entrance slit and then converge them to the
slit array. Finally the PDA behind the slit array converts the light signals into electric
signals and then outputs them.

Overview of ISE fluidic assembly


ISE Buffer: The liquid in the ISE fluidic assembly is the buffer stored in the buffer
solution tank on tank bracket.
Liquid Flow Motivity: The flow of ISE buffer is driven by the buffer syringe. The
syringe motor drives two pistons simultaneously. The left one is used to add buffer to
the sample injection cup, and the right one is used to drain liquid in the cup.
Degassing Membrane: It is used to remove gas from ISE buffer.
Temperature Stabilizer: It is used to stabilize the temperature of ISE buffer to
keep the temperature similar as the environment temperature in the analyzer, to avoid
sharp fluctuation.
Work Process: As shown in “Fluidic Diagram of ISE Module”, ISE Level
Detection Sensor (801-BA80-00212-00) aspirates the buffer from the buffer solution
tank and dispenses it to ISE Tube 01 (801-BA80-00200-00).Remove gas in the buffer
with degassing membrane (801-BA80-00213-00) and put the buffer into ISE Tube 02
(801-BA80-00201-00).Drain the buffer to ISE Tube 04 (801-BA80-00203-00) using
syringe and Solenoid Valve SV01 (801-BA80-00192-00).ISE buffer flows into
Temperature Stabilizer (801-BA80-00215-00), and its temperature become closer to
the internal environment temperature in the analyzer. Drain the temperature
stabilized buffer to the SIC through ISE Tube 06 (801-BA80-00205-00).Drain the

4-135
liquid in SIC from the module using both syringe and Solenoid Valve SV02
(801-BA80-00193-00).The liquid in SIC will flow through ISE electrode, ISE Tube
07 (801-BA80-00206-00), Solenoid Valve SV02, ISE Tube 08 (801-BA80-00207-00),
ISE Tube 09 (801-BA80-00208-00), and then drain from the ISE module by gravity.

Overview of ISE analyzing


ISE analysis mainly consists of the following actions. During analyzing or priming,
ISE buffer always flows from tube 01 to tube 09 which is shown in “Fluidic Diagram
of ISE Module”.
Priming: Priming indicates that the syringe pumps the buffer passing through the
degassing membrane and Temperature Stabilizer unit to SIC and electrode. During
priming, ISE buffer always flows from tube 01 to tube 09 which is shown in “Fluidic
Diagram of ISE Module”.
Analyzing buffer: The ISE buffer syringe aspirates the degassed and stabilized
buffer and dispenses it to SIC. And then the buffer will be absorbed slowly into the
flow cell for analyzing. After that, waste liquid will be drained from waste drain
nozzle.
Analyzing sample: The ISE buffer syringe dispenses the degassed and stabilized
buffer to SIC at the specified height and the sample probe adds the sample to SIC,
then the sample and the buffer will be mixed in SIC. The sample-buffer mixture will
be absorbed into the flow cell for analyzing. After that, waste liquid will be drained
from waste drain nozzle.
A typical process is shown as below: Priming -> Analyzing buffer -> Analyzing
sample -> Priming -> Analyzing buffer.
Flow direction of buffer: During analyzing or priming, ISE buffer always flows from
tube 01 to tube 09 which is shown in “Fluidic Diagram of ISE Module”.

NOTE
To remove the joint parts of tank bracket, please first disconnect the ISE buffer tube
and ISE level detection sensor and remove them. Please take care of the ISE buffer
tube when perform operations above to prevent it from being bent.

Troubleshooting approach and steps


When to do:
Buffer overflows from sample injection port, poor performance of re-analysis,
calibration error, or such failures occur as A01034 (ISE sample injection port liquid
level too high), A01035 (ISE sample injection port liquid level too low) and A13023
(ISE calibration paused, the number of replicates for calibration exceeds the
designated value).
Judgement Criterion:
Prime with ISE buffer and check if the priming works properly. ISE tube will full of
liquid after priming it with the buffer for about 20 times. Normal buffer priming
should meet the following two conditions: 1. No obvious air bubbles in ISE Tube 06
(see “Fluidic Diagram of ISE Module”); 2. No overflow.
Troubleshooting steps:
If there are still a lot of air bubbles in the tube after priming the tube with ISE
buffer for several times, please check and handle it according to the following
descriptions.
1 Check the buffer solution tank first. Check the tubes shown in “Fluidic Diagram
of ISE Module” by the buffer flowing direction.

2 Make sure there are sufficient buffer in the buffer solution tank. And observe if
obvious air bubbles exist in the tube that connecting the buffer solution tank
with ISE module. Priming can be executed for several times if necessary. If air
bubbles exist, please check the followings.

4-137
3 Check if pipette on ISE level detection sensor is damaged.

4 Check if the tubes on ISE level detection sensor are connected well.

5 Check if the tubes on ISE degassing membrane are connected well.

6 Check if vacuum tubes on ISE degassing membrane are connected well.


Vacuum tube should be inserted into the bottom of the connector, and the
connector and the degassing membrane should be connected well. (Note: Do
not screw the connector so tightly when checking.)

7 Check if ISE vacuum works properly. The normal range of pressure is from
-25kPa to -36kPa. If exceptions occur, please check ISE vacuum assembly.

8 Check if there is any bubble in the tube that connecting degassing membrane to
the right Solenoid Valve SV01.If bubbles exist, please check the connectors of
degassing membrane and the right Solenoid Valve SV01.Check the right
connector of the syringe. Check ISE syringe for leak. If it leaks, please replace
the washer of the syringe.

9 Check the tube connection from the right Solenoid Valve SV01 to Temperature
Stabilizer.

10 Check the tube connection in Heat stabilizer.


Troubleshootings for overflow:

1 Check electrodes connection by the liquid flowing direction (see “Fluidic


Diagram of ISE Module”).You can drain ISE wastes during checking, and
observe the flowing direction of the liquid.

2 Check if the channel connecting the bottom of SIC and the electrodes has been
blocked.

3 Check the installation of the electrodes. On the contacting surface between


electrodes, REF electrode and temperature sensor, CL electrode and fluidic

4.12.4 ISE Buffer Resorption Volume Confirmation and
Alignment
Note
Biohazard. Please exercise caution when maintaining ISE.

Tools
None

Troubleshooting approach and steps


When to do:
Replaced or reinstalled the sample injection cups.
Judgement Criterion:
When performing ISE analysis, the buffer nozzle will dispense a specific volume of
buffer to the SIC for diluting the sample before the sample probe adds the sample.
When adding ISE buffer, the buffer nozzle will resorb the buffer to keep the buffer
level always below the nozzle for positive displacement. Resorption may generate an
air column in the tube that connecting the buffer nozzle.
Troubleshooting steps:
Run ISE analysis for about five times, and observe the position of air column from
the second analysis. (Note: Do not take the result of the first analysis as the
reference.)Normally, the air column should keep 10 to 40mm distance from edges of
SIC. If not, you should modify “Adjustment Factor of SIC Volume”.

10mm ~ 40mm

The resorption volume will influence the position of the air column which can be
changed by modifying “Adjustment Factor of SIC Volume”. To modify it, please
select System Setup -> Factory -> ISE Setup.The range of the factor is from 25
to 45.
Lowering the factor will increase the distance between the air column and the edges
of SIC, and vice versa. The air column in the tube will move about 1mm with one
unit change of this factor.

Procedure of discharging refrigerant


When to do:
• The refrigerant inside the refrigeration system should be discharged through the
drain outlet if the refrigeration module, circulating pump, sample compartment
or reagent compartment is replaced.
Procedure:
• Switch off the power supply of the instrument.
• Remove the rear panel, the panel at the reagent compartment prime port, and
the sample compartment cover.
• Remove the insulating foam from the drain tube of the circulating pump, and
then put the drain tube into a refrigerant recycle bucket with volume no less than
4L. Make sure that the drain outlet is lower than the outlet of the circulating
pump. Use a flathead screwdriver to loosen the tube clamp on the drainage plug,
and then remove the drainage plug.
• Open the air vent on the reagent compartment and sample compartment. The
refrigerant flows into the bucket under the gravity force.
• When the refrigerant is completely discharged, block the outlet of the drain tube,
tighten the tube clamp, and then install the insulating foam. Fill the new
refrigerant according to the steps above in reversed order.
Precautions:
• During refrigerant discharging, exercise caution to prevent the refrigerant from
spraying out and dropping on PCBs and connectors.
• The discharged refrigerant must be retrieved.
• General or partial ventilation must be provided to ensure good working
environment.
• Use oil-proof chemical resistant gloves during operation.
• Wash your hands with fresh water after finishing the operation.
• The refrigerant should be stored while sealed properly, and it must not be
exposed to air for a long time.

4-161
Procedure of installing refrigerant
When to do:
• Before the instrument leaves the factory.
• The refrigerant is insufficient when the instrument is initially installed at the user
end. (The refrigeration is less than one bottle.)
• The refrigerant needs to be filled during component repairing. If the
refrigeration module, circulating pump, sample compartment or reagent
compartment is replaced, the refrigerant inside the refrigeration system should
be discharged through the drain outlet. New refrigerant then should be filled for
about six bottles.
• Refrigerant needs not to be discharged when the refrigeration fan, refrigeration
board temperature sensor, and reagent temperature sensor are replaced.
Procedure:
• Prepare one to six bottles of refrigerant (801-BA80-00165-00), one funnel, and
three prime fixtures (BA80-J46).
• Switch off the main power supply of the instrument.
• Loosen the sealing plug screws at the prime port and air vent of the reagent
compartment and at the air vent of the sample compartment.
• Install two prime fixtures without plug at the air vent and prime port of the
reagent compartment, and then install a prime fixture with plug at the air vent of
the sample compartment.
• Connect the funnel with the prime fixture at the reagent compartment’s prime
port, and then remove the plug from the prime fixture on the sample
compartment. Fill the refrigerant into the funnel, and exercise caution to prevent
the refrigerant from spilling out. When the refrigerant level reaches the prime
connector, install the plug on the prime fixture of the sample compartment.
• Check if the sensor cable of the refrigeration board is intact. Run the operating
software, select Utility -> Maintenance -> Alignment -> Pyrology Unit –
Reagent Refrigeration Temperature Curve, search and check the
refrigeration parameters, and then set the refrigeration status flag as 0.
• Turn on the circulating pump P02 for one minute and then turn it off.
Remove the plug from the prime fixture of the sample compartment, and
then check if the fluid level comes down after half a minute. If it does,
repeat steps 5-7 until the refrigerant level no longer comes down while
remaining at the prime port of the reagent compartment.
• Remove the prime fixtures in the correct order. First remove the prime fixture at
the air vent of the sample compartment with extra refrigerant discharged into
the sample compartment. Make sure that no extra refrigerant spills out when the
two prime fixtures on the reagent compartment are removed.
• Install and tighten all sealing plug screws on the reagent compartment and
sample compartment.
• Turn on the circulating pump P02 and reagent refrigeration. The temperature
curve is displayed. Check the radiator current and refrigeration board
temperature for about 20 minutes. If the radiator current is between 2-.5A and

4-162
no alarms are triggered indicating low refrigeration temperature, set the
refrigeration status flag as 0.
• Install the insulating foam heads on the prime port and air vent of the reagent
compartment, and then stick transparent adhesive paper.

Figure 4.78 Reagent refrigeration temperature curve


Precautions:
• During refrigerant priming, exercise caution to prevent the refrigerant from
spraying out and dropping on PCBs and connectors.
• Fill refrigerant strictly as instructed by the procedure mentioned above. When
turning on the circulating pump, be sure to block the air vent of the sample
compartment.
• General or partial ventilation must be provided to ensure good working
environment.
• Use oil-proof chemical resistant gloves during operation.
• Wash your hands with fresh water after finishing the operation.
• The refrigerant should be stored while sealed properly, and it must not be
exposed to air for a long time.

Alignment and confirmation (regular check of refrigerant)


When to do:
• The instrument has been filled with refrigerant before leaving the factory. The
refrigerant level, however, may come down due to some unstable factors caused
during instrument transportation, such as air bubble drifting. When installing the
instrument at the user end, service engineers should check if the refrigerant is
sufficient.

4-163
• When performing annually spontaneous maintenance at the user end, service
engineers should check the refrigerant inside the refrigeration tubes, and if
necessary, fill more refrigerants. Also service engineers should remove and check
the filter screen from the prime port of the reagent compartment, and if
necessary, clean it.

Figure 4.79 Fluid level of refrigeration system

Figure 4.80 Filter structure of refrigeration system


Procedure:
• Use a flathead screwdriver to loosen the plug screws on the air vent and prime
port of the reagent compartment.
• Use a pair of tweezers to remove the filter from the prime port and then clean
the filter with fresh water.
• Use an electric torch to visually check the refrigerant level from the air vent and
prime port of the reagent compartment. If visual check is not allowed due to
the environment, use a cotton swab to sense the refrigerant level from the air
vent and prime port. Make sure that the refrigerant level is no lower than the
center line of the horizontal connector tube. The center line of the tube is about
15mm away from the top of the connector.
• If the refrigerant level does not meet the requirements, fill more refrigerants
according to the steps described in this section.
• After finishing the prime, put the filter back to the prime port.
• Install the plug screws on the air vent and prime port of the reagent
compartment.

and then remove the circulating pump.
Precautions:
• During refrigerant discharging, exercise caution to prevent the refrigerant from
spraying out and dropping on PCBs and connectors.
• When unplugging the fluidic tubes, hold them carefully to prevent the residual
fluid from spilling on PCBs and connectors.

Installation steps
Procedure:
• Connect the outlet with the tube of the refrigeration module and the inlet with
the other tube. Tighten the tube clamps.
• Wrap the insulating foam using class A insulating adhesive tape
AS-ATAPEC1T-9M(095-000049-00).
• Fix the circulating pump assembly on its bracket using two screws, making the
pump head in the front and the pump end in the back.
• Connect the power cord of the circulating pump.
• Fill the refrigeration system with refrigerant.
• Install the enclosure of the instrument and make the instrument standby.
Precautions:
• Connect the fluidic tubes properly.
• Do not fix the tube clamp on a barb connector.
• Wrap the insulating foam tightly to avoid any space.

needed when service engineers clean the fans.)
Precautions:
• Handle the water tank carefully to prevent water from spraying out.
• When removing screws 3 and 4, exercise caution to prevent them from dropping
into the instrument.

Installation steps
Procedure:
• Lay the new fans in the same way as the old fans are set and arrange the cables.
Refer to the wind direction marked on the fan cover, and make sure that the fans
are installed correctly with wind entering the refrigeration module from its front
and leaving from its back.
• Tighten each fan with four screws and nuts. Exercise caution to avoid damaging
the fan cover, which is plastic. Install the refrigeration fan assembly.
• Install the fan assembly on the refrigeration module in the correct angle.
• Install screws 3 and 4, and tighten screws 1-4.
• Connect the fan cables, and restore the water tank and instrument enclosure.
Precautions:
• Do not mistake the installation direction of the fans.
• When installing the fans, use the screwdriver carefully to avoid damaging the fan
cover.
• Ensure that the protrusion below the fan assembly is inserted into the
counterpart on the refrigeration air duct.
• When installing screws 3 and 4, exercise caution to prevent them from dropping
into the instrument.

5.7 Power Supply System
5.7.1 Description of Power Supply System
As shown in the figure below, the AC power supply passes through the main power
switch and then comes to the AC drive board, which then divides the power supply
into three parts and provides them for the BA40 power supply assembly, 24V/6A
power supply board and 12V/30A power supply board. The 110V/220V
transformer circuit is only used on instruments powered by 110V power supply. In
this circuit, the 110V AC power supply is transformed to 220V and then used to
power the AC pumps on the instrument.

BA40 power supply assembly


The BA40 power supply assembly, as the major part of the entire power supply
system, consists of three boards, which are 24V power supply board, 12V power
supply board and power supply conversion board. It provides power supply for the
lamp, DC power supply for major control boards, and power supply for refrigeration
modules. After passing through an analog power supply conversion board, the 5V
power is converted into +/-12V and then provided for the AD collection board and
preamplifier board. The A5V, C12V, B24V, D12V and E12V power goes through a
DC power supply conversion board and then is provided for the wash temperature
control board, sample control drive board and reagent control drive board. The
B12V and A24V power are input to the reagent refrigeration board for powering the
radiators and ISE module. Other boards, such as reaction carousel collection board,
cleaning fluid temperature collection board, pressure detection board, clog detection
board and level sense board, are powered by those boards connected to them. See
the figure below.
The 24V power supply board converts the AC input into A24V and B24V and into
24VFAN for the cooling fans of radiators.
The 12V power supply board converts the AC input into B12V, A5V, ±14V, and
24VLAMP. The 24VLAMP power supply is transformed to A12V through the power
supply conversion board and used for powering the lamp.
The power supply conversion board is used to shift the AC voltage, control the
vacuum pump AC voltage, convert the ±14V power into ±12V, control the C12V

5-76
power, and shift various output voltages.

Troubleshooting BA40 power supply assembly


Check the indicators on the power supply conversion board while the main power
switch is turned on and the analyzing unit power switch is off. In normal conditions,
indicators D11, D15 and D21 should be lit respectively indicating B12V, A24V and
24VFAN. If D11 is not lit, the B12V output may go wrong and perhaps the 12V
board is failed; if D15 and D21 are not lit, the A24V and 24VFAN outputs may go
wrong and perhaps the 24V board is failed; if all of the three indicators are not lit,
check if the AC input of the PCBA is normal, and troubleshoot the 12V board and
24V board.
While the main power switch is turned on and the voltage input is normal, turn on
the analyzing unit power switch. In normal conditions, all indicators on the
conversion board except for the A12V indicator should be lit. If the B24V indicator
is not lit, replug the load line; if the error remains, replace the 24V board and then
check if the B24V indicator is lit. If the A5V indicator is not lit, perhaps it is
short-circuited or the 12V board goes wrong. If the A5V indicator is lit but C12V or
D12V/-12V is extinguished, replug the load line; if the error remains, check the
conversion board or replace the power supply board; if the error disappears when a
new power supply board is installed, it indicates that the original power supply board
needs to be repaired.
If the A12V power cannot be enabled through the operating software while the main
power switch and analyzing unit power switch are turned on and working normally,
replug the power cord of the lamp; if the error remains, troubleshoot the power
supply conversion board by replacing it with a new one.

5.7.5 12V/30A Power Supply Board


Major functions
The 12V/30A power supply board is intended to implement the following functions:
• Converting the AC input within the entire voltage range into DC 12V output.
• Providing power supply for the reagent refrigeration board.

5-87
Performance Indices
Power supply input:
• AC input voltage: 90-264V AC
• AC voltage frequency: 50/60±3Hz
Power supply output:
• Rated output voltage: 11.4-12.6V.
• Rated output current: 30A.

Description of PCBA
Connectors:
The 12V/30A power supply board contains four connectors, which are described in
the table below.

Jack No. PIN Symbol Description


J1 1 L Live wire of AC input
2 / NC
3 N Neutral wire of AC input

J2 1 12VDC+ AC 12V positive output

2 12VDC- DC 12V output GND


J3 1 FAN + 12V positive output for cooling fan of the PCBA
2 FAN- 12V GND for cooling fan of the PCBA
J4 1 FAN + 12V positive output for cooling fans
2 FAN- 12V GND for cooling fan of the PCBA

PCB layout:

5-88
Power supply indicators:
The 12V/30A power supply board only has a green indicator labeled with D24 as
shown in the figure above. When D24 is lit, it indicates that the PCBA has been
connected to the power supply and connector J2 has voltage output; when D24 is
extinguished, it means that there is no voltage output at connector J2.

Troubleshooting the PCBA


Check the indicator D24 when the PCBA is connected to the power supply. If it is lit,
it means that there is voltage output on the PCBA. Use a multimeter to measure the
voltage between the two pins of connector J2, and then check if the voltage is within
the normal range of 12V±5%.
If indicator D24 is lit but the output voltage is beyond the normal range, check if the
measuring methods are correct, the testing equipment is normal, and the PCBA has
been installed correctly, and then replug the load line and measure the voltage again.
If the voltage is normal, check the load end; if the voltage fails again, check if the
fuse on the power supply board is broken or if there are any other causes, and then
replace the power supply board. If the error disappears when a new power supply
board is installed, it indicates that the original power supply board needs to be
repaired.
If indicator D24 is extinguished, replug the load line of connector J2 and then use a
multimeter to measure the output voltage at J2. If the voltage is normal but D24 is
extinguished, it indicates that the D24 LED goes wrong; otherwise, open the power
supply box, replug the fan cables from connectors J3 and J4, and then try again. If
the error still remains, the power supply board may goes wrong and need to be
repaired. If the error disappears when a new power supply board is installed, it
indicates that the original power supply board is failed.

5.7.6 24V/6A Power Supply Board


The 24V/6A power supply board is intended to implement the following functions:
Converting the AC input within the entire voltage range into DC 24V output and
providing power supply for the cooling fan.

Performance Indices
Power supply input:
• AC input voltage: 90-264V AC
• AC voltage frequency: 50/60±3Hz
Power supply output:
• Rated output voltage: 24V.
• Rated output current: 6A.

Connectors:
The 24V/6A power supply board contains two connectors, which are described in
the table below.

Figure 5.4 PCB layout

Measuring output voltage


The 24V/6A power supply board has no indicators to indicate output voltage and
requires measurement of the output voltage to check if it is normal or not. Use a
multimeter to measure the voltage between the two pins of connector J2, and then
check if the voltage is within 24V±5%.

Troubleshooting the PCBA


If the 24V/6A power supply is abnormal, measure the output voltage at connector
J2 and check if it is within the normal range. If the voltage is normal, check the
connection cables and load end.
If the voltage is abnormal, check if the wire of connector J1 and the PCBA have
been installed correctly, replug the load line of connector J2, and then measure the
voltage again. If the error still remains, check if the fuse on the power supply board
is broken or if there are any other causes, and if necessary, replace the power supply
board.
If the output voltage is normal while the board is connected to power supply
without any loads, but it becomes abnormal once a load line is inserted into J2, check
if the cable is correct and the load end is normal. If the load end is correct, replace
the 24V/6A power supply board. If the error disappears after a new power supply
board is used, it indicates that the original board goes wrong and needs to be
repaired; otherwise, check carefully each load connected to the output end of the

5-90
power supply board.

5.7.9 Tips for Troubleshooting Power Supply System


The following summary is about the control relations of the power supply system
and provided to help service engineers to troubleshoot various failures.
For corresponding relations between the main switch/analyzing unit power
switch/hibernating status and the power supply working status, refer to relevant
sections on the previous pages.
Voltage timing control:
When the analyzing unit power switch is turned on, the A5V, C12V (D12V/E12V)
and B24V are controlled successively in the order of A5V – C12V (D12V/-12V) –
B24V. That is, only when the A5V is connected will the C12V (D12V/-12V) be
provided, and this is the same for C12V and B24V; if the A5V is not output, the
C12V (D12V/-12V) and B24V will not be provided.

6.3 Principles of Hydropneumatic System
The Hydropneumatic system is composed of the sampling unit, cuvette wash station,
water supply unit, waste unit, and ISE Hydropneumatic unit. See the figure below.

6.3.1 Sampling Unit


The sampling unit consists of 1 sample probe, 2 reagent probes, 4 mixers, and 3
syringes. The sample syringe has a volume of 250μl and the 2 reagent syringes have a
volume of 1ml.
This unit is mainly used for fixed-quantity sampling and probe/mixer cleaning.
• Fixed-quantity sampling is realized through cooperation of the syringes, solenoid
valves and probes with the aim of delivering fixed-quantity reagent and sample.
• Probe/mixer cleaning, driven by fluidic pumps, is to clean the interior/exterior
of the sample probe and reagent probes as well as the exterior of the mixers so
as to eliminate carryover among chemistries.
• To ensure accurate sampling, the deionized water used for cleaning the probe
interior needs to be degassed, that is, to be produced by passing through a
degasser.
The schematic diagram of the sampling unit is as shown below.

6.3.2 Cuvette Wash Unit


The cuvette wash unit is divided into dispense module and aspirate module, which
cooperate with each other to clean the reaction cuvettes for 8 phases.
Fluidic pumps are employed to provide diluted wash solution (alkaline) for phase 1
and 2 and deionized water for phase 3-6. No fluid is dispensed or aspirated during
phase 7 and 8.
An air pump is used to discharge the waste fluid and wipe the cuvettes after cleaning.
High-concentration waste is generated during phase 1-3 and low-concentration waste
during phase 4-8. Wipe blocks are provided to absorb the remaining wash solution
inside cuvettes during phase 7 and 8.
The cuvette wash unit makes reuse of cuvettes possible by means of repeated
aspirate-dispense actions. The cuvette wash unit is composed of the following
secondary units:
• Deionized water circulation unit

6-6
• Cuvette wash unit
• Predilution
• Pneumatic unit
• Preheating unit
The cuvette wash unit has the major aim of cleaning cuvettes. The deionized water
and diluted wash solution used for cleaning cuvettes, coming from the deionized
water circulation unit and auto predilution unit, are driven by the pneumatic unit and
preheated by the preheating unit.
The schematic diagram of the cuvette wash unit is as shown below.

Figure 6.2 Schematic diagram of cuvette wash unit

6.3.3 Water Supply Unit


The water supply unit supplies water automatically for the instrument, checking
water quality, and filtering the supplied water between the module itself and the
internal water tank of the instrument. Moreover, the water supply unit is capable of
checking fluid level and giving an alarm when the water tank contains insufficient
water. Also the water supply unit allows manual cutting off water supplying in
emergent situations.
The water supply unit is composed of the following components:
• Water inlet filters: inside and outside the instrument
• Inlet valve
• Ball valve
• Water quality detection device
• Internal water tank
• Level sense device
• Tubes and connectors

6-7
6.3.4 Waste Unit
The waste unit is capable of:
Collecting all high-/low-concentration waste into corresponding containers and then
discharging them off via a waste pump.
Discharging high-/low-concentration waste separately.
Detecting fluid level inside the high-concentration waste tank.
All waste containers are equipped with an overflow alarm device.
The waste unit consists of the following components:
• High-concentration waste collector
• Low-concentration waste collector
• Waste pump
• External high-concentration waste tank
• Level sense device
• Tubes and connectors
The secondary vacuum container used for cuvette cleaning is one part of the waste
unit, because it is responsible for absorbing waste fluid from cuvettes during each
wash period and then discharging it to corresponding high-/low-concentration waste
collectors.
High-concentration waste includes the waste produced during cuvette cleaning in
phase 1-3 and the waste fluid of ISE measurements.
Low-concentration waste mainly comes from the following sources:
• Cleaning interior/exterior of sample probe and reagent probes
• Mixer cleaning
• Auto cuvette cleaning in phase 4-8
• Condensate water of the reagent carousel
• Condensate water of the sample carousel (STAT sample positions)
• Overflowed fluid of the reaction carousel
The first three are the major sources and account for over 99% of low-concentration
waste.

6.4 Removing and Installation of Hydropneumatic
Components
This section describes removing and installation methods of the Hydropneumatic
components, and provides schematic diagrams and pictures of components for
service engineers to refer.

6.4.1 Overview
When an alarm is displayed on the operating software, service engineers can analyze
the instrument status and finally locate the failure source, and if necessary, replace
the failed part or component. Generally, service engineers are not recommended to
remove the electric devices, such as pumps, solenoid valves, clog detection device,
syringes, etc. Only when both hardware and software are confirmed normal but the
Hydropneumatic alarm still remains are service engineers suggested to remove the
relevant device and then analyze or replace it.
Prior to removing Hydropneumatic components, make sure that all pumps and
solenoid valves of the Hydropneumatic system have been turned off, and both the
analyzing unit power switch and main power switch have been placed to the OFF
position.

7.2 Alignment Procedure
NOTE
1) Before starting alignment, ensure that the moving parts can move normally
without being blocked by any objects and the cables are connected correctly.
2) Every alignment procedure must be finished; otherwise, the updated parameters
cannot be saved.
3) Perform alignment according to the instructions displayed on the software screen.
4) If you perform the alignment without using an alignment tool, make sure that the
probes and mixers are aligned with the center of the corresponding cuvettes; the
cuvette wash station is adjusted with its wipe blocks located at the center of
corresponding cuvettes; the reagent probes R1/R2 are at the center of the reagent
bottle opening; and the sample probe is at the center of a sample cup or Microtube.
The basic alignment commands of each smart module are summarized on the
corresponding tab page and described in the following sections.

7.2.1 Photoelectric Unit

The photometric unit contains the following alignment commands: 1. Light intensity
adjustment, 2. Photoelectricity collection position adjustment, and 3. Photoelectric
gain adjustment.
Choose the desired alignment command, and then operate as instructed by the
operating software.

Light intensity adjustment


The Light Intensity Adjustment command is used to adjust the light intensity. Select
6 Index Setup to display the following window.

7-4
Photoelectric collection position adjustment
The Photoelectric Collection Position Adjustment is used to adjust the photoelectric
collection positions and the photoelectric collection curves for each channel.

AD collection starting
signal, middle of flat area

Flat area of all


channels should be
normal.

1. Select Start, and then operate according to the instructions displayed on the
software screen.
2. When the lamp has been turned for over 10 minutes, select OK.
3. Adjust the reaction carousel position sensor till the photoelectric collection

position is in the middle of the flat area and the curves for each channel are almost
level. The left direction is clockwise and the right direction is counterclockwise.

Reaction carousel position sensor

Photoelectric gain adjustment


The Photoelectric Gain Adjustment command is used to check if the water blank
value and dark current exceed the indices.

1 Select 3 Photoelectric Gain Adjustment.

2 Operate according to the instructions displayed on the software screen.

3 Check if the photoelectric gain is greater than 65 for 340nm, 30 for 380nm, and
20 for other channels. Check if the water blank AD value is within 47000-50000,
and the dark current is less than 200.

4 If the water blank value exceeds 50000, decrease the target voltage by 0.1V for
every excessive 1000, and then readjust the light intensity and photoelectric gain.

7.2.2 Reaction Carousel Unit


Only the Reaction Carousel Rotary procedure is performed based on the whole unit.

7-6
Reaction carousel rotary
1. Select 2 Reaction Carousel Rotary on the Reaction Unit tab page.
2. Place a cuvette alignment tool in the sample dispense position and diluting
position as well as dispense positions of probes R1/R2. When setting the cuvette
alignment tool, please note that the longer side should be taken as the alignment
direction, and an alignment tool should be laid in the sample dispense position and
diluting position as well as dispense positions of probes R1/R2.
3. Manually rotate the sample probe and reagent probes 1/2 to make them go to the
center of the alignment tool. If they failed, loosen the three alignment screws on the
probe arm, and then adjust the arm length and the reaction carouse rotation position
parameters.

4. Check the alignment effect of step 3.


5. The alignment procedure is complete.

7.2.3 Sample Carousel Unit


The sample carousel unit contains six alignment commands, which are: 1. Inner

7-7
sample carousel outer ring radial position, 2. Inner sample carousel inner ring radial
position, 3. Outer sample carousel outer ring radial position, 4. Outer carousel outer
ring reversed stop position compensation, 5. Outer sample carousel inner ring radial
position, and 6. Outer carouse inner ring reversed stop position compensation.
Alignment procedure:
1. Choose the desired alignment command.
2. Adjust the sample probe to make it align with the center of the sample carousel,
and then lay the alignment tool. See the figure below.

3. When the sample probe is powered off, manually rotate it to the sample carousel
by passing through the center of the alignment tool.
4. Select the left arrow to adjust the sample carousel radial position till the sample
probe is at the center of corresponding sample cup.
5. Confirm the sample carousel radial position.
6. The alignment procedure is complete. Note that the modified parameters can be
saved only after the alignment procedure is complete.

7.2.4 Reagent Carousel Unit


The reagent carousel unit contains four alignment commands, which are Reagent
carousel 1 circumferential position adjustment, Reagent carousel 1 reversed rotary
compensation, Reagent carousel 2 circumferential position adjustment, and Reagent
carousel 2 reversed rotary compensation.
