We have an excelsior and were told that for all flush / cleaning Xylene should be used to prevent blocked lines. We also use xyl sub for processing.

I am wondering if drain lines blocked with paraffin has been an issue in your lab. It happens to us once or twice a year and we need to place a service call to have an engineer come and replace the blocked line. We use a xylene substitute (Clear-Rite) on our processor because it provides far superior results for our veterinary tissues. But maybe we should be using xylene for the cleaning reagent bottle. Not sure if that would make a difference. I hope other Pegasus users will take a few minutes to reach to me. 😃 Cheers, G *Greg Dobbin* 1205 Pleasant Grove Rd Route 220 York, PE C0A 1P0 _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
