Replacing the Bal Seal
The Bal seal is a Teflon ring that allows the sample tube to pressurize. Over time,
this seal becomes worn or cracked and requires replacement. Replace the seal
when persistent sample tube pressure errors occur.
Over time, saline deposits may develop on the interior surface of the SIT Bal seal
retainer, causing an incomplete SIT flush between samples. Therefore, you should
always rinse the retainer in DI water when you replace a Bal seal.
