Keithley Instruments, Inc., a world leader in
advanced electrical test instruments and systems,
has introduced KeithleyCare™ Plans to provide owners of Keithley
instrumentation with fast, high quality instrument calibration and repair services
at a fraction of the cost of "per-event" service.
KeithleyCare plan purchasers receive priority
service on repairs and calibration, as well as minimize their equipment
downtime, service costs, and administrative hassles. For more information about
the services available, visit: www.keithley.com/support/calrepairservices or
download the KeithleyCare flyer: www.keithley.com/data?asset=55836.
KeithleyCare Gold Plans
KeithleyCare Gold Plans offer multiple years of protection in
three- and five-year increments. These plans include free repairs, expedited
priority service that reduces equipment downtime by three days, and
complimentary shipping both to and from Keithley's facility (within the United
States). Each repair service includes calibration and
adjustment to OEM specifications and verification to unpublished
specifications.
KeithleyCare Calibration Plans
KeithleyCare Calibration Plans offer multi-year coverage in three-
or five- year increments and are designed to simplify calibration management
and help ensure covered equipment provides peak operating performance. These
plans include expedited priority service that reduces downtime by two days and
complimentary shipping one way. Calibration and adjustment to OEM
specifications is included, as well as verification to unpublished
specifications.
Purchasers of either plan automatically receive the latest
reliability and performance enhancements for their instrumentation when they
return it to Keithley for service.
KeithleyCare Plans offer purchasers a variety of important
benefits:
·
Lower costs: Customers realize significant savings over per-event repair and
calibration prices while eliminating unbudgeted expenses. For example, although
an expedited repair of a critical instrument might cost $1,700 to $3,200
without KeithleyCare coverage, that same expedited repair would cost just $120
per year if the instrument was covered by a KeithleyCare five-year Gold Plan.
·
Less downtime: Plan purchasers get expedited service with faster turnaround
times (typically three days for calibration and five days for repair).
·
Greater convenience: Customers can place just one order for multiple years of
KeithleyCare services, eliminating administrative hassles.
·
Higher service quality: Keithley follows strict guidelines and requirements to provide
the highest quality of service. The company is registered to ISO
9001:2000, and its Metrology Services Group is accredited to ISO 17025:2005.
·
Greater accuracy: Keithley calibration equipment and measurement uncertainties are
among the best in the industry, so customers can be assured their instruments
are providing their most accurate readings. Keithley's lab takes more measurements
than most calibration providers, providing additional assurance that all the
instrument's specifications have been adequately verified.
