Sample Processing Sequence Select the numbered steps below to learn more about the sample processing sequence on the Atellica Decapper. 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 7 7 Sample Processing Sequence By following the journey that samples take as they are processed by the Atellica Decapper, you will gain a better perspective on how the different parts of the system function. Select the steps below to learn about the steps of the sample processing sequence. 1. As a sample carrier approaches the Decapper, sample tubes that do not require decapping bypass the Decapper. Sample tubes that require decapping stop at the decapping position. 2. When a sample tube that requires decapping is at the decapping position, the tube grippers hold the sample tube in place. 3. The head of the cap remover then rotates to cover the sample tube. 4. The cap remover lowers and grips the sample tube cap, and then removes the cap from the tube. 5. The cap remover then rotates over the cap waste chute and drops the cap down the cap waste chute. 6. The cap falls down the cap waste chute and into the cap waste bin. 7. The tube gripper releases the decapped tube for additional processing. 7 The tube gripper releases the decapped tube for additional processing 6 The cap remover drops the cap down the cap waste chute into the cap waste bin 5 The cap remover lifts and rotates to over the cap waste chute 4 The cap remover lowers and grips the sample tube cap to remove the cap 3 The cap remover rotates to over the sample tube 2 The tube gripper holds the sample tube in the decapping position 1 As a sample carrier approaches the Decapper, sample tubes that require decapping stop at the decapping position Sample tubes that do not require decapping bypass the Decapper ?

Assessment Slide Hardware Overview Hardware Overview The Atellica Decapper is an Atellica Solution module that removes and discards caps from all approved sample containers. The cover of the Decapper is controlled by a system of interlocks. The cover interlock detects when the operator removes the cover and the module stops. After the operator replaces the cover, the Decapper resumes normal operation. Let’s look at the components that can be accessed when the top cover is open. The cap remover rotates to remove sample tube caps, and then drop them down to the cap waste chute. The cap waste chute directs removed caps down to the cap waste bin. The tube gripper holds the sample tube during decapping. The sample tube stays in the carrier of the Atellica Magline Transport during decapping. Now, let’s look at the front of the Decapper. The cap waste drawer is located in the bottom front of the Decapper. Open the cap waste drawer to access the cap waste bin. The sample tube caps fall into this bin after they have been removed from the tubes. Finally, let’s look at the components on the back of the Decapper. The pressure valve and main power switch are located near the bottom of the back of the Decapper. The pressure valve can be used by the operator to control the Decapper air pressure. The main power switch is used to power off and on the analyzer. Replay unassigned Next To watch the Hardware Overview video again select Replay, or continue by selecting Next.
