11.3Returning Your Unit for Calibration or Service

Prior to returning your Cal=Trak for service or calibration, please contact Sierra Instruments, Inc. for an RMA number. You can request an RMA number from any Sierra office or via our web site, www.sierrainstruments.com. Do not return your calibrator without an RMA number or your service may be delayed.

11.4Shipment

When shipping the Sierra Cal=Trak please ensure that the packaging is adequate to protect the instrument. When possible the Cal=Trak should be shipped in the optional storage case. Sierra Instruments, Inc. is not responsible for damage that occurs during shipment.

When transporting by air, the internal solenoid valve must be in the Open position to avoid possible cell damage. To open the valve, from the “Run Menu”, press the Stop button. The valve position may be verified by sealing both the inlet and the outlet fitting. The piston should move freely up and down the cylinder.
