Testing performed by our in-house service team:
The Bio-Plex 200 Suspension Array Analyzer passed all tests and was found to be fully functional:
• We test the operation of the software communication.
• We evaluate the functionality of the pneumatic pump and calibrate the air pressures to the specified requirements.
• We assess the performance of the probe and its actuator to ensure proper operation.
• We clean and test the HTF sheath fluid module for operational efficiency.
• We perform a deep cleaning of the fluidics system.
• We analyze the functionality of the sheath fluid valves within the system.
• We inspect and test the XYP microplate stage module.
• We perform the calibration procedures for both lasers, including Cal1 and Cal2.
• We carry out all recommended cleaning and flushing protocols, which include Prime, Wash, Sanitize, Alcohol Flush, and Soak.
• We perform the calibration procedures and obtain passing results, verifying that all subsystems are operating together as intended.

CRITICAL TECHNICAL STEPS WE TAKE TO ENSURE INSTRUMENT PERFORMANCE & CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
They want to ensure the cytometer undergoes full fluidics system decontamination, flushing, and inspection to protect the valves and flow sensors from damage.
________________________________________
They want to ensure the cytometer has no residual sheath salt buildup in the flow cell, which could skew scatter data and, if improperly cleaned, can damage the flow cell.
________________________________________
They want to confirm that all detectors, including doublet detectors, can be aligned and calibrated for particle sizing and granularity resolution.
________________________________________
They want assurance that baseline performance has been verified using standardized particles, with data or log files available for review.
________________________________________
They want to confirm that electronic noise and EMI levels at the detector/amplifier stage remain within tolerance and will not distort signal fidelity.
________________________________________
They want to confirm that no power degradation or misalignment in laser paths is detected through precise mW-level measurement at the final optics output.
________________________________________
They want to ensure that optical filters and dichroic mirrors have been inspected for delamination, spectral shift, or contamination that could compromise signal specificity.
________________________________________
They want to ensure the sheath flow and pressure are properly set, ensuring proper sample rates and sensitivity.
________________________________________
They want to ensure the system passes automated QC and performance tracking with reproducible CVs for bead standards across multiple channels.
________________________________________
They want to ensure the fluidics pump assembly does not exhibit pulsation, drift, or backpressure due to check valve wear or micro-leaks.
________________________________________
They want peace of mind, knowing their instrument is backed by a warranty from a company that can stand behind it.
