Repair Policies for Pickering Switch and Simulation Products

All repairs of Pickering Interfaces products are on a return to factory basis. Repairs out of the standard 3-year warranty period are charged solely on the actual parts and labor required, not on a standard or fixed fee or list price percentage basis. However, we realize that many customers need a price to start the return process, for this reason we offer a few different price options for you to start with.

Pickering Interfaces offer three types of service returns, these include:

Evaluation
This type of service return investigates faults on switch modules (known or unknown), down to relay contact damage level (if requested) and are priced appropriately for the type of product returned:

• PXI or PCI Evaluation Fee
• LXI Evaluation Fee
Verification
This is a simple retest to check if the switch module is still within specification, it does not include repair and is priced appropriately for the type of product returned:

• PXI or PCI Verification Fee
• LXI Verification Fee
Re-calibration
This is a re-calibration service for our Instrument modules, including precision resistors, it does not include repair and is only applicable for PXI & PCI modules - click here for a list of applicable modules.

• PXI or PCI Re-calibration Fee
  Additional Service: PXI or PCI Re-calibration Report Fee

Remember, these prices are based on a typical repair fee, it is our policy to charge only for the work required for each individual repair.
