Standard factory warranty for NanoDrop instruments
NanoDrop One/OneC spectrophotometers come with a standard 2-year factory warranty, while all other NanoDrop instruments come with a standard 1-year factory warranty. During the system warranty period, all costs for shipping, labor, and parts for repairs are covered. Preventive maintenance is not included.
NanoDrop extended warranty (service plan)
Many customers in the US and Canada choose to purchase an extended warranty (also called a service plan), which takes effect when the factory warranty expires, extends the term for one or more additional years, and includes preventive maintenance. A service plan can:
- Maximize system uptime with fast repair turnaround time from manufacturer-trained and certified engineers
- Extend the life of your system and keep it running at peak performance with annual preventive maintenance
For NanoDrop customers in the US and Canada, all service is performed at our depot in Madison, WI. The service plan includes annual customer-scheduled planned maintenance with priority turnaround times. Parts, labor, and shipping for your repairs are included.

Qualification services for NanoDrop instruments
You can add qualification services to complement your service plan. Instrument hardware qualifications for the NanoDrop One/OneC, NanoDrop Eight, and other spectrophotometers document and verify that the instrument or software is installed and operating properly.
Instrument qualification (IQ) provides documented evidence and verification that the instrument has been delivered and installed according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Operational qualification (OQ) provides documented verification that the instrument subsystems are operating as designed, and verifies that the functionality of an instrument meets the manufacturer’s operational specifications.
IQ and OQ are recommended at installation, after moving the instrument, after software or hardware upgrades, and after planned maintenance or critical repairs. Our qualification specialists will partner with you to deliver timely, cost-effective, and trusted qualification services that include reliable, audit-style documentation that will help ensure your instruments meet regulatory requirements.
Qualification service ordering information*
*Qualification services are performed by a Field Service Engineer and can be scheduled after purchase.
