Accuracy: + or (-) 5(degrees)C or 5% of setpoint, whichever is greater
VALIDATION PROCEDURE:
Make sure a LN cryo tank, with sufficient capacity has been connected before
you run the above "Heating and Cooling test". After the run, check the runfile
for time and temperature readings in the cooling ranges. Verify specifications
are met. Attach runfile to installation validation documentation.
RESULT:
DIVERSITY REAGENT DELIVERY ACCURACY/PRECISION (AUTOSAMPLER)
SPECIFICATION:
Range: minimum 50 (nanoliters) to 3 ml in 5 (nanoliter) increments
Accuracy: + or (-) 15 (nanoliters) (<200(nanoliters)): + or (-) 5%
(>200 (nanoliters))
VALIDATION PROCEDURE:
Run the preprogrammed "Solvent/Reagent Delivery Test" utilizing water or DMF
in the AutoSampler. Reagent and Solvent locations, and a cassette with 48 fully
prepared vials. Measure the volume in the collection vials which correspond to
AutoSampler deliveries using gravemetric determination, or transfer to a
graduated cylinder. All deliveries tested should be within the accuracy range.

REAGENT DELIVERY ACCURACY/PRECISION (SMALL AND LARGE SYRINGE)
SPECIFICATION:
Range: minimum 50 (nanoliter) to 3 ml in 10 (nanoliter) increments
Accuracy: + or (-) 5%
VALIDATION PROCEDURE:
As above, run the preprogrammed "Solvent/Reagent Delivery Test" utilizing water
or DMF in the AutoSampler, Reagent and Solvent locations, and a cassette with
48 fully prepared vials. Measure the volume in the collection vials which
correspond to syringe deliveries using gravemetric determination, or transfer
to a graduated cylinder. All deliveries tested should be within the accuracy
range.

AGITATION RATE VALIDATION
SPECIFICATION:
Rate: 0 to 400 strokes per minute
Accuracy: + or (-) 10%
Validation Procedures:
Using a tachometer, check the actual frequency of each agitator against the
programmed frequency at max speed (400 strokes per minute). Result should be
within the accuracy range for each agitator tested.
Result:

SYSTEM INTEGRATION CHECK
SPECIFICATION:
All relevant modules perform as required in a pre-programmed system wide test
utilizing a typical solvent.
VALIDATION PROCEDURE:
Utilize results of "Solvent/Reagent Delivery Test" to validate system
integration check. Analyze runfile for errors. Attach a copy of the runfile to
the installation validation documentation.
