Instrument Service:
Warranty and non-warranty service, replacement, calibration and repairs are performed by factory trained service technicians at one of Kelfos Technical Service Centers India. All items must have a Return Goods Authorization (RGA) number that can be obtained by contacting the Kelfos Technical Service Department. The RGA number should be clearly marked on the outside of the box and the unit shipped prepaid and insured. Any product not bearing an RGA number will be refused. All products returned for warranty repair or replacement MUST be preceded or accompanied with proof of purchase, such as the original invoice or packing slip. Under special circumstances it may be deemed necessary by Kelfos to issue a Return In Advance (RIA). In such cases, the defective materials must be returned to Kelfos within 30 days. Materials not returned within 30 days become chargeable. Materials must be packed properly to avoid damage during transport, which would render the warranty null and void. The sender is responsible for expediting any damage claims placed against the carrier.
In most cases, a flat minimum service charge applies to non-warranty repairs or recalibration. Please contact your local Kelfos Technical Service Department for current rates. Any materials returned for repair which are considered non-warranty may be serviced at hourly cost (excluding parts) following subsequent notification and approval of such.
