Looking at a DC250 blanket warmer and getting error code ES11. Followed troubleshooting ideas of checking the pad sensor and connections, no luck. Any other suggestions?
I do not get the results after doing the count. the blood sample is introduced correctly and the count is made, everything seems to work, but at the end it does not show any values. instead it shows ****.
Leica Autostainer XL (ST5010) emits a continuous audible alarm sound, immediately after power up, and an exclamation mark (and a blinking cursor) is on the LCD screen. It does not react to any key presses. Has anyone seen this issue? I am guessing that it is the main PCB, but wondered if a failed battery-backed RAM with RTC clock chip could (DS1243Y+120) could be responsible.
I noted that a fairly new Leica 1520 comes with 315 grams of R452A refrigerant. Does anyone know if this will be the norm - will all of the cryostat manufacturers be switching to this refrigerant, instead of R404A (which is about to be phased out)? I did note that it does still use a Danfoss SC15G compressor (which now has a sticker on it saying "R452A"). And, unfortunately, it also still has the double e-valve.
Leica ST5020 Multistainer - solenoid rebuild kits. Has anyone ordered/used Leica solenoid rebuild kits? The Leica parts list has a solenoid valve service kit, p/n 14047539613. It does not specify whether this is individually, or it is a kit to service all six solenoids. I guess this is moot - Leica Biosystems just told me, after having given me the price ($1342), that it has been discontinued. Have any of you had good success just cleaning these solenoids?
Does anyone have any tips / tricks to adjust the delrin block? I'm struggling to get even pressure across the travel. Any thoughts / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
