Pipette Maintenance Services

Pipette Maintenance Services

Calibration is not the only activity necessary to keep your pipettes in service. Our preventive maintenance (PM) program keeps your pipettes in optimal operating condition and avoids “As Found” failure the next time your pipettes are calibrated.

Pipette components wear out from general usage. This compromises the seal, which inevitably results in errors and reduced accuracy and precision of the pipette. It also leads to a shorter usable lifespan for the instrument.

Most manufacturers recommend performing routine maintenance at least once per year, while some suggest every 6 months. Much of this depends on how often your pipettes are used and what they are used for. A pipette used daily, for several hours each day will require more frequent preventive maintenance than a pipette used once every week or so.

Proactively maintaining your pipettes with our PM service includes:

  • Full disassembling of the pipette
  • Cleaning of the instrument (inside and outside)
  • Inspecting functional parts
  • Replacing specific high-risk parts and components
  • Lubricating and replacing seals
  • Documenting and scheduling of PM activities based on your lab’s needs.

We will schedule, document and track all pipette calibration and preventive maintenance activities. Benefits include:

  • Saving time and money by avoiding failure
  • Having known/pre-planned maintenance expenses
  • Extending the life of your instruments
  • Providing pipette measuring consistency
  • Improving pipette accuracy
  • Optimizing pipette and lab equipment performance

Pipette PM service is provided for both on-site (at your facility or lab) or off-site (shipped into our lab) service in coordination with your lab’s pipette calibration schedule(s). We inspect and replace deteriorating parts according to a set maintenance schedule.

Our work is supported by a 6-month warranty against failure and workmanship issues. We are committed to meeting your lab’s unique needs and providing a high quality, flexible approach.
