Many products are often not repairable, as they are permanently sealed and cannot be opened without compromising performance or hygienic integrity. In most cases, only basic maintenance—such as cleaning, calibration, and certification if required—is possible.
Items typically not eligible for repair include:
- All pressure-based level sensors
- Pressure transmitters and any gauges with physical damage to the fitting or diaphragm
- Digital thermometers
In these cases, replacement is usually required.
Estimated Replacement Pricing:
- Products less than 5 years old: Typically, 90% of the new list price
- Products over 5 years old: Typically 85% of the new list price
Note: Many products are not repairable due to sealed construction and will require replacement.
