8.2 Warranty and Repairs

This product is under warranty against manufacturing
defects or faulty materials that are found within 12 months
from delivery date.
The warranty is limited to repairs or to the replacement of the
instrument.
The tampering of the instrument or an improper use of the
product will bring about the immediate withdrawal of the
warranty’s effects.
In the event of a faulty instrument, either within the warranty
period, or further to its expiry date, please contact our
sales department to obtain authorisation for sending the
instrument to our company.
The faulty product must be shipped to Tecnologic with a
detailed description of the faults found, without any fees
or charge for Tecnologic, except in the event of alternative
agreements.
8.3 Maintenance
This instrument does not requires periodical recalibration
and it have no consumable parts so that no particular
maintenance is required.
Some times, a cleaning action is suggestable.
1. SWITCH THE EQUIPMENT OFF (power supply, relay
out, etc.).
2. Take the instrument out of its case.
3. Using a vacuum cleaner or a compressed air jet (max.
3 kg/cm2) remove any dust that may be present on the
casing and/or on the electronics being careful not to
damage the electronic components..
4. To clean external plastic or rubber parts use only a cloth
moistened with:
• Ethyl Alcohol (pure or denatured) [C2H5OH] or
• Isopropyl Alcohol (pure or denatured) [(CH3)2CHOH]
or
• Water (H2O).
5. Make sure that there are no loose terminals.
6. Before putting the instrument back in its case, make sure
that it is perfectly dry.
7. Put the instrument back and turn it ON.
