Battery Pack 50 Warranty
The battery pressure housing is guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship for
one year from the original date of purchase. Warranty is void if the factory determines the
unit was subjected to abuse or neglect beyond the normal wear and tear of field deployment.
To return the instrument, contact WET Labs for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA)
and ship in the original container. WET Labs is not responsible for damage to instruments
during the return shipment to the factory. WET Labs will supply all replacement parts and
labor and pay for return via 3rd day air shipping in honoring this warranty.
Return Policy for Instruments with Anti-fouling Treatment
WET Labs cannot accept instruments for servicing or repair that are treated with antifouling compound(s). This includes but is not limited to tri-butyl tin (TBT), marine antifouling paint, ablative coatings, etc.
Please ensure any anti-fouling treatment has been removed prior to returning instruments to
WET Labs for service or repair.
We recommend our Anti-fouling Paint Kit for optimum bio-fouling protection. It includes
Ecominder® anti-fouling paint, tape, brush, and detailed instructions. Ecominder® is
specially formulated as a safe, effective alternative to traditional copper-based anti-fouling
paints. Simply wrap your instrument package with the supplied tape, then paint the tape
with Ecominder®. After deployment, remove the anti-fouling paint by simply peeling off the
tape. Each kit contains more than enough material for two deployments.
Shipping Requirements for Returning Instruments
1. Please retain the original shipping material. The shipping container meets stringent
shipping and insurance requirements.
2. To avoid additional repackaging charges, use the original box (or WET Labs-approved
container) with its custom-cut packing foam and anti-static bag to return the instrument.
•
If using alternative container, use at least 2 in. of foam or bubble-wrap to fully
surround the instrument
3. Clearly mark the RMA number on the outside of your shipping container and on all
packing lists.
4. Return instruments using 3rd day air shipping or better: do not ship via ground.
