    Understand your warranty.

    Our warranty boils down to this: we cover everything except your mistakes. Don’t drop the instrument onto a steel deck (this is an ‘accident’). Don’t use a CTD as a shovel to dig a hole (this is ‘mis-use’). Don’t try to fix things yourself (this is ‘over-enthusiasm’). We’ll fix anything else for free.

    The standard warranty has a duration of twelve months. Additional twelve and twenty-four-month extensions are available at the time of purchase. Within the warranty period, we will cover everything, including third-party equipment that you purchase from us. You cover the shipping back to us and that’s it!

    Send us an email to support@rbr.cn to request an RMA number before shipping the instrumentation back to us.

    standard repair costs.

    Our minimum repair charge is $150 CAD. This charge includes:

    • Comprehensive initial inspection
    • Verification of calibration status
    • Sensor functionality testing

    Minor repairs are also covered by this basic fee. If further repair work or re-calibration is necessary, you will be issued a service quote.

    Once you have given your authorization to proceed, we will complete the repair and return the instrument as soon as possible.

    Note:
    Any units returned with low (or no) batteries will have new batteries installed, and the costs will be added to the repair invoice.
