Sorry to hear you have this problem. This exact question has reoccurred on this list over the years. This happened to our Zyla 5.5 and other people have reported similar. If the seal breaks, water condenses on the chip or inside front plate when the cooling is on. Andor can fix this, but they may charge you.

Dear All,
I wonder if anybody in the list had the same/similar issue we have in the
lab.
We have water condensation on the camera sensor (Andor Zyla camera) when we
turn on. It disappears when we turn off the camera.
The camera is attached to a lens as shown here:

Thank you for your help!
Best wishes,
Edite
