Qualification services
You can add qualification services to complement your service plan. Instrument hardware qualification for system include instrument qualification (IQ) and operational qualification (OQ) to document and verify that instruments are installed and operating according to manufacturer’s specifications.
Installation qualification (IQ), operational qualification (OQ), and performance qualification (PQ) or instrument performance verification (IPV) services verify and document your instrument’s ability to meet manufacturer design specifications for performance.
IQ—provides documented evidence and verification that the instrument has been delivered and installed according to manufacturer’s specifications.
OQ—provides documented verification that the instrument subsystems are operating as designed. Verifies that the functionality of an instrument meets the manufacturer’s operational specifications.
PQ or IPV—provides documented verification that the instrument system can perform effectively and reproducibly within performance specifications. Helps ensure confidence in results by verifying that the accuracy and precision of an instrument is maintained.
Re-qualifications (OQ or OQ/PQ or OQ/IPV)—provide documented verification that the instrument continues to operate as specified by the manufacturer. Typically performed annually after an initial IQ, OQ, PQ, or IPV has been completed, or according to user’s SOP requirements.
* IQ: Instrument Qualification, OQ: Operational Qualification, PQ: Performance Qualification, IPV: Instrument Performance Verification.
Standard and extended warranty
During the 1-year system warranty period, all costs for travel shipping, labor, and parts for repairs are covered. Extended warranties, covering an extra year, are also available. When you purchase your instrument, check with your sales representative to see if an extended warranty package (including both instrument and warranty extension) is available.
