    Why does Lonza PyroTec PRO show level sense failure?
    • T
      Troy HowardAug 20, 2025
      A level sense failure in Lonza Laboratory Equipment can occur due to several factors. Avoid using mobile phones closer than 2 meters to the instrument, even in standby mode. Low humidity in the room can also cause this issue, so try increasing ambient humidity. Ensure correct sample positioning, replace any bent tips, and use/configure the correct carrier. Rectify tip configuration.
