Preventive maintenance with OptiRun supports performance and compliance
Preventive maintenance (PM) programs support peak performance and compliance for your ÄKTA chromatography system. Routine maintenance reduces equipment breakdown and the need for costly repairs. Scheduled maintenance tunes your instrument to deliver high-quality products with PM procedures that are documented in a service report.
Designing and servicing bioprocess equipment requires understanding of the process and the science driving it. By taking advantage of an OptiRun PM program, you can benefit from our global experience in designing and maintaining thousands of life science chromatography systems. Only Cytiva service engineers are trained and certified to perform PM on your ÄKTA pilot 600R system.
