6 Features
6.1 General Description
The IVF K-SYSTEMS L100 Series is a complete Workstation for human and animal
reproduction. It has a warmed stainless steel table plate. The table plate maintains a
preset temperature in the range 35-43°C. The L124/L126 is heated by means of an
electronically controlled heating system.
The vertical laminar airflow passes through a HEPA main filter and protects the cell
culture against contamination.
All operations take place through the front opening. Pressure in the work chamber
keeps the clean air flowing from the work chamber to the surroundings, avoiding the
introduction of particulate contamination to the work chamber.
· The Normal Mode must be used when working inside or nearby the laminar flow
hood.
· The Stand-by Mode maintains the Workstation interior under aseptic conditions,
but working inside the Workstation or near the Workstation may cause changes
in the airflow.
20
Instruction manual for L100 workstation
6.2.2 Prefilter
6.2.3 Fan
The air is drawn into the fan in the top of the Workstation
where it is pressurized. From the pressure plenum the air
passes through the HEPA main filter.
21
Instruction manual for L100 workstation
The air flows from the main filter through the work chamber in a vertical unidirectional
flow of clean air. Immediately before reaching the tabletop, the air separates and
flows out through the back wall, and through the work opening. The air returns to the
suction opening of the Workstation passing through the surrounding space.

14 Maintenance
14.1 Routine Maintenance
14.1.1 Daily
The IVF Workstation is a low maintenance unit designed to be both easy to use and
clean, plus it is durable due to its construction.
All surfaces should be cleaned with an 70% alcohol solution on a clean cloth or lint-
free paper towel.
Clean all surface components by wiping gently with gauze.
To remove fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe with gauze slightly
moistened with a mixture • of either (70%) and alcohol (30%).
Since solvents such as ether and alcohol are highly flammable, they must be handled
carefully. Be sure to keep these chemicals away from open flames or potential
sources of ignition – electrical equipment must be switched off. Also remember to
always use these chemicals only in a well ventilated room.
If smudges are difficult to clean, wipe them with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.
The heated area is able to withstand some water spills. However,
precautions are still necessary if water is spilled on the surface. Unplug
the power cord, and then wipe dry with a dry cloth immediately.
If water gets inside the unit, contact your K-SYSTEMS Kivex Biotec representative to
check electrical safety.

15 Monitor
15.1 Description
The K-systems monitor is a high grade LCD dual-input flat panel monitor. It features
a 19”” TFT Liquid Crystal Display with anti-glare treatment. A super wide 170°
viewing angle and 1600X1200 resolution.
The K-Systems monitor has got 3 inputs allowing it to be connected to most types of
computers, cameras or video units. One is digital (VGA) and the two others are
analog inputs (composite and S-VHS).
As standard a Composite (yellow) cable and a VGA cable (blue or black) will be
connected to the monitor when the workstation is sent from K-Systems. The monitor
will be set up for Auto switching between the signals. This means that the monitor will
recognize the input type itself and adjust the picture to it. When there is no signal the
monitor will remain black.
NOTE: Only connect one type of signal to the monitor at the time or use the switch
function on the keyboard.
See below for a description of the types of connectors and suggested alternative
connection possibilities.
79
Instruction manual for L100 workstation
K-Systems supply a converter piece that will allow S-VHS input on the composite
cable.
80
Instruction manual for L100 workstation
This is done by attaching the VGA cable (blue or black) to the output connector of the
computer. If the computer only features a DVI output a VGA to DVI adaptor, that K-
Systems does not supply, must be used.
81
Instruction manual for L100 workstation
CCD cameras come equipped with varied types of connectors. Most common would
be Composite or S-VHS. In this case it is just a question of connecting the yellow
cable to the camera or using the composite to S-VHS adaptor supplied with the K-
Systems Workstation.
82
Instruction manual for L100 workstation
Some cameras also use a BNC connector. In this case a converter piece that K-
Systems do not supply must be sourced.
Converts the BNC connector on the camera to a female composite that will fit the
installed cable on the Workstation.
83
