General Conditions
Supertech Instruments gives you 3 years of full warranty for mechanical products by default. For our electronic products the full warranty period is 5 years. The default warranty period can be extended in exceptional cases (according to special discussions).
Supertech Instruments gives you full warranty for its products against defects in materials or workmanship as long as the equipment has been subjected to normal and proper use. During the warranty period, faulty products will be repaired or replaced free of charge provided they are returned to our workshop. Postage of the warranty repair actions is paid by the Customer. There are special conditions introduced for repairing of Vibration Isolation Tables (see below).
Supertech Instruments will undertake the servicing and calibration after the expiration of the warranty period for a nominal fee.
The warranty does not cover the faults made by the user.
If the installation was not carried out on a workmanlike manner, the warranty ceases. We provide many resources to help you to install the product correctly: user manual, installation manual, repair manual, free helpdesk on the phone and in email. With this background the workmanlike installation is easy. However if you are not sure you can do it, you can involve our product specialist.
Electrical safety measurements of proper operation of the 115 / 230 V AC mains electric system (from the equipments have been supplied) is the sole responsibility of the user.
There are products of Supertech Instruments, which have no built-in mains power supplies, but they are supplied from plug-in DC power supplies. If such an equipment is supplied from an external plug-in DC power supply, which is not approved in advance by Supertech Instruments, the warranty ceases. The simplest way to avoid this risk is to order the appropriate plug-in DC power supply from us.
The exceptions of warranty are:
- Dual-Superfusion Slice Chamber and its parts
- Assembled 8 x 8 mm 3D sensor PCB, with acceleration sensor IC of the 3D Accelerometer
- Batteries and rechargeable batteries built in or enclosed to the equipments. These are consumable products, reasonably expected to be used up or damaged during use. These are warranted only against defects in workmanship or materials that prevent their use.
Warranty limitation of the In-line Solution Heaters: The warranty is valid for the In-line Solution Heaters except for the faults made by the user, such as: broken stainless steel tube, bent tube, stoppage in the tube, dirt in the tube, infection in the tube, corrosion in the electronic heater or sensor circuit, broken wire.
Warranty conditions of STable (©) Active Pneumatic Vibration Isolation Tables are slightly special because of their huge weight and inability of transportation. The details are published in the User Manual of the Active Pneumatic Vibration Isolation Tables.
All products of Supertech Instruments have got CE identifier and certificate.

Our prices are extremely stable. We update some price items very rarely.
During the continuous development process the internal constructions and the technical parameters of our products are frequently improved. According to the development phases the version numbers of the equipments are sometimes changed without prior notice. But these changes usually have no effect on the prices.
