Number. This RMA number should be 
clearly marked on the outside of all 
package(s) and on the packing list(s) 
accompanying the shipment. A detailed 
account of the nature of the problem(s) 
being experienced with the equipment 
should also be included inside the

materials. 
 
A Purchase Order, included with the 
returned materials, will expedite the 
turn-around of serviced equipment. It is 
recommended to include authorization 
on the Purchase Order for PCB to 
proceed with any repairs, as long as they 
do not exceed 50% of the replacement 
cost of the returned item(s). PCB will 
provide a price quotation or replacement 
recommendation for any item whose 
repair costs would exceed 50% of 
replacement cost, or any item that is not 
economically feasible to repair. For 
routine calibration services, the Purchase 
Order should include authorization to 
proceed and return at current pricing, 
which can be obtained from a factory 
customer service representative.
