Diag.1: Syringes
Dilutions:
First dilution is carried out in the WBC/HGB chamber (with a bubbling phasis).
The RBC blood sample is aspirated from this dilution.
Lyse is sent from the drain nipple of the WBC/HGB chamber.
Counts have a duration of 2 x 6 seconds.
Rinse:
To obtain the best rinse in the counting heads, diluent is sent
from the liquid syringes. This is carried out before, between
and after the two counts.

SECTION 1 HYDRAULIC & PNEUMATIC PRINCIPLES
A window on the HGB/WBC chamber allows the needle to move down into the chamber and to inject reagents. As impor-
tant light or variation of light can cause HGB result drifts, close instrument cover and door before running blood analy-
ses.
Bubbling:
Insulators avoid polluted liquid overflows during bubbling phasis. They also allows an accurate adjustment of the bubbling
volume.
MICROS 60 CT specifics:
- The piercing needle is equipped with two injectors to obtain a homogeneous diluent flow during needle rinsing phasis (see
procedures RAS188A and RAS187A).
- Atmosphere is provided to sample tubes to allow a correct aspiration of blood.

1. Sampling position
According to the sample tube models (Vacutainers, Microtainers ...) used and to their position into the sample tube holder, the
heigth of the needle in its lower position can be modified.
The 3 switches (See “Diag.1: Sampling pos.”, page 2-A) associated to the tube holder are able to detect the sampling position
according to the following principle:
Two states 0/1 are possible for the 3 switches (See “Diag.1: Sampling pos.”, page 2-B):
- Switched OFF: 1
- Switched ON: 0
The binary codes obtained from the states of the switches gives the positions of the tube holder.
For each position of the sample tube holder (from 1 to 6) corresponds a position of the needle (from 1 to 6).
A B
Diag.1:Sampling pos.
The code «0 0 0» means that the tube holder has been turned in between two sampling positions. The code «1 1 1»
means that the tube holder has been removed.
The following chart tables give the tube positions available according to the models of sample holder used on the instrument.
