IMPORTANT: Annual preventative maintenance by an
Advanced Instruments-trained service engineer is
strongly recommended to ensure optimal performance
and maximize the life of the instrument.
The OsmoPRO MAX system displays a reminder a month

Instruments Technical Service or your authorized
distributor to schedule preventative maintenance for the
