  • Causa
    If the au5800 diluted detergent tank valve is not positioned to 'closed' during the instrument 'measure' mode, diluted detergent will not be dispensed and may adversely affect washing of cuvettes, probes and mixing-bars. inadequate washing of cuvettes, probes and mixing bars can cause falsely high or low results to be reported for a variety of tests.
  • Acción
    Beckman Coulter is providing work around instructions to mitigate the issue and is asking customers to add a label to the diluted detergent tank identifying the "Open" and "Closed" orientation of the valve.
