Why and How to Fix It…
It is important to know how to change the needle and needle seat on your autosampler. This is a fundamental part of maintaining your equipment. If the needle becomes damaged, if there is leaking from the needle or the seat, or if there is a clog, it’s time to replace the assembly. It should also be replaced as part of your annual maintenance procedure. The needle and needle seat assembly should be changed at the same time.
