Introduction and Safety Notes
Note: For safety and biohazard guidelines, see the “Safety” appendix in the CTS™ DynaCellect™ Magnetic Separation System User Guide (Pub. No. MAN0026480). Read the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and follow the handling instructions. Wear appropriate protective eyewear, clothing, and gloves.
Important Guidelines
- The working area must be at least 749.5 mm (29.5") (width) x 562 mm (22.12") (depth) (include 10 cm rear clearance for ventilation) x 495 mm (19") (with pole base) (height), flat, dry, clean, and vibration-proof.
- Ambient humidity should be no more than 80% at temperatures up to 30°C (86°F) to avoid condensation.
- Ambient temperature range should be between +15°C (59°F) and +30°C (86°F).
Unpack and Set Up the Instrument
Lift the cardboard box off the pallet.

Remove the two small cardboard boxes containing the bag hangers, the pole extensions and the pole adaptors.
Image: Two small cardboard boxes being removed from larger packaging.
Remove the top foam.
Image: A piece of foam being lifted out of the main packaging.
Unwrap packaging bag and remove the ethernet cable and power cable.
Image: An ethernet cable and a power cable being unwrapped from protective packaging.
Lift the instrument to bench or cart. The operation requires two people. Use the four holding recesses (front left side, back right side, and on both sides) to lift in a diagonal position.
⚠️ IMPORTANT! The instrument weighs 50 kg (109.7 lbs) and requires two people to lift.
Image: Two individuals lifting the instrument using designated recesses, indicating the need for two people.
Place the instrument in a protected location with at least 10 cm (4 inches) to the rear for proper operation of the exhaust fans. See "Important guidelines" on page 1.
Image: The instrument placed on a surface with adequate clearance at the rear.
Remove the rocker homing position foam.
Note: It is acceptable for the rocker to freefall by gravity after removing the foam. Do not manually move the rocker once it has settled into its locked resting position.
Image: Foam being removed from the instrument's rocker mechanism.
Install the two pole adaptors to the two pole extensions, and install both on the pole base on the instrument.
