PCB  offers  an  unconditional  guarantee  for  customer  satisfaction.    PCB  strives  to  provide  superior,  unmatched 

customer service.  Should you at any time find yourself dissatisfied with any PCB product for any reason, consult 

a PCB application engineer to discuss repair, refund, or exchange procedures.  PCB instrumentation is warranted 

against  defective  material  and  workmanship  for  one  year  unless  otherwise  expressly  specified.    Damage  to 

instruments caused by  incorrect power  or misapplication is not covered by  warranty.  If there are  any questions 

regarding power, intended application, or general usage, please contact a PCB application engineer (or your local 

sales contact).  Batteries and other expendable hardware items are not covered by warranty.  

 

maintenance & repair 

Because  of  the  sophisticated nature  of  PCB  instrumentation, field  repair  of  the  equipment  is  not  recommended.  

Most  PCB  signal  conditioners  are  of  modular  construction  and  are  factory  repairable.    A  repair  or  replacement 

quotation is available at no charge.  Before returning equipment for repair, it is strongly suggested that the user 

confer with a factory application engineer (or local sales contact) concerning the difficulty, to ascertain if an on-site 

procedure may rectify the problem. 

If repair is indicated, contact PCB to request a Return Materials Authorization (RMA) number from the factory.  An 

advanced  authorization  to  proceed  with  the  repair,  permitting  charges  of  up  to  50%  of  a  new  item,  greatly 

expedites repair.  

Please  provide  a  detailed  written  description  of  the  malfunction  encountered  with  the  returned  item,  together 

with your information and setup procedures.  Customers outside the U. S. should consult their local PCB sales 

contact  for  information  on  returning  equipment.    For  exceptions,  please  contact  the  International  Sales 

department at PCB to request shipping instructions and an RMA.  For assistance, please call (716) 684-0001, 

or fax us at (716) 684-0987.  You may also receive assistance via e-mail at
