Medical Forum / General / Laboratory / February 2007Help Sysmex K-1000
I need help troubleshooting a Sysmex K-1000 hematology analyzer. It passes the initial start up check, but it is not sucking any of the sulfolyzer reagent. Thus, the RBC are not lyzed and I am not getting any readings for HGB's. I tried flushing the line with a syringe and bleach, but the line is really plugged up. BTW, the instrument doesn't have a maintenance contract and we do not have availability of technical help in person or by phone. I would really appreciate any suggestions. >IBTW, the instrument doesn't have a maintenance contract I do :o) I shall ask our local engineer...... >>IBTW, the instrument doesn't have a maintenance contract > > I do :o) > > I shall ask our local engineer...... Who says....... Trace the line back to find out EXACTLY what bit is blocked then flush that bit with hot water - NOT bleach. HTH I will tray it. Thank you. >>>IBTW, the instrument doesn't have a maintenance contract >> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > HTH >I will tray it. Thank you. Did it work ? No and now both lines are plugged up. I tried flushing them with warm water, but there is no way I can force any fluid in there. Any ideas? >>I will tray it. Thank you. > > Did it work ? > No and now both lines are plugged up.
