G.P.S. Satellite Clock Statement of Compliance
February 5, 2008
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
All Arbiter Systems, Incorporated G.P.S. Satellite Controlled Clocks are Primary Standards.
They provide time traceable to U.T.C. and U.S.N.O. within published accuracy specifications
anywhere in the world. All Arbiter Systems Incorporated G.P.S. Satellite Controlled Clocks also
carry a limited lifetime warranty, which is based on in field MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures)
of over one million (1,000,000) hours. These products are available with all known time
synchronization signals presently in use world wide by the electric power industry.
Arbiter Systems does not supply a type test certificate as requested for G.P.S. systems as the
accuracy is a function of the G.P.S. system and not of the receiver. However we (Arbiter) hereby
certify that this equipment conforms to all Arbiter Systems Incorporated specifications for
material and process. All Arbiter Systems calibration products are supplied with a type test
certificate guaranteeing traceability to National Standards, but are inappropriate for G.P.S.
clocks, which are Primary Standards by definition.
