10. Maintenance
To maintain the best results from your pipette
each unit should be checked every day for

the tip cone(s).
Proline pipettes have been designed for easy in-
house service. However, Sartorius also provides
complete repair and recalibration service
including a service report and performance
certificate(s). Please return your pipette to your
local representative for repair or performance
test/ recalibration. Before returning please
make sure that it is free from all contamination.
Please advise our Service Representative of any
hazardous materials which may have been used
with your pipette.
NOTE: Check the performance of your pipette
regularly e.g. every 3 months and always after in-
house service or maintenance.
10.1. Daily cleaning of the outer
surface of the pipette
Your Proline pipette should be checked every day
for cleanliness. To clean and decontaminate the
outer surface of your pipette use ethanol (70%),
isopropanol (60%) or a mild detergent and a soft
lint-free cloth.
Gently clean the surface of the pipette with
moistened cloth and wipe dry. Pay special
attention to the tip cone. Change the tip cone
filter if needed.
