Basic safety
The following hazard information and safety instructions are applicable to laboratory
automation system (LAS) operation.
CAUTION: Device generates magnetic fields. Any person with a pacemaker or other
similar implanted devices should exercise caution during LAS operation.
CAUTION: Radio-frequency identification (RFID) devices. The operator should not
change or modify RFID devices without approval by the party responsible for
compliance. This action could void the operator's authority to operate the equipment.
CAUTION: Radio frequency exposure. The operator should be at least 20 cm from all
RFID devices.
CAUTION: Mind or watch your hands. The front and rear module covers can be
opened only with the unlock key and only by a trained operator. Before reaching into
the module, ensure that the robot status is Offline and that the robot slows down
significantly. Keep away from the moving robot and close the module covers as soon
as possible.
CAUTION: Do not reach inside. The rear module cover can be opened only with the
unlock key. Never reach into the module from the rear module cover.
CAUTION: Possibility of electric shock. This activity or area may expose you to electrical
shock.
CAUTION: Danger of electrical voltage. Cables and electrical components are located in
correspondingly identified areas. Inappropriate handling poses a health hazard and can
damage the components.
Only allow trained electricians to work in these areas.
Interrupt the supply voltage before working in these areas.
CAUTION: Risk of contamination and injury. During LAS operation, sample tubes and
components may be damaged due to inattentive handling. Infected sample matter that
leaks from the system may expose the operator to infections due to skin contact with
the sample matter.
Wear personal protective equipment while operating the LAS. Avoid direct contact
with the sample matter.
Follow all hygiene regulations applicable to laboratory work.
Only allow trained personnel to operate the LAS.
CAUTION: Contamination hazards and misdiagnosis. During LAS operation, sample
tubes and components may be damaged due to inattentiveness while handling samples.
Sample matter leaks may cause cross contamination with other sample matter and a
subsequent misdiagnosis.
