<strong>Litron</strong> <strong>Lasers</strong> Ltd. <strong>RMA</strong> (Return to Manufacturer<br />

Authorisation) Policy<br />

Please read the <strong>RMA</strong> Policy <strong>and</strong> follow the instructions set out below.<br />

To obtain an <strong>RMA</strong> number, please fill out <strong>and</strong> submit the online <strong>RMA</strong><br />

form. If for any reasons you have problems doing this please contact <strong>Litron</strong><br />

<strong>Lasers</strong> directly.<br />

Do not send products of any kind to <strong>Litron</strong> <strong>Lasers</strong> Ltd if they do not have an<br />

authorised <strong>RMA</strong> number displayed on the package.<br />

Goods received without an <strong>RMA</strong> number will be refused by the receiving<br />

department <strong>and</strong> may be returned at your expense.<br />

When you receive your <strong>RMA</strong> number, please follow the <strong>RMA</strong> shipping instructions<br />

completely as detailed below.<br />

All instructions relating to the return of your item are detailed below.<br />

<strong>Litron</strong> <strong>Lasers</strong> Ltd. offer a Return to <strong>Litron</strong> Warranty. It is our policy to receive<br />

the defective part at <strong>Litron</strong> for assessment prior to any replacement part being<br />

sent.<br />

In emergency situations, <strong>and</strong> on a discretionary basis, we may ship a<br />

replacement part prior to receiving the defective part. Any emergency shipment<br />

requires a company purchase order for the value of the replacement part prior to<br />

shipment. Failure to receive the defective part within thirty (30) days of shipment<br />

of the replacement part will result in <strong>Litron</strong> <strong>Lasers</strong> invoicing against the purchase<br />

order for the full list price of the part shipped plus shipping costs. Emergencies<br />

are h<strong>and</strong>led on an individual basis <strong>and</strong> require interaction with a <strong>Litron</strong> Laser’s<br />

technical support representative.<br />

If your system is no longer covered by a warranty or any part of the warranty has<br />

expired, you will need to supply a purchase order to cover the initial assessment<br />

of the system. You will be advised of the assessment cost <strong>and</strong> the warranty<br />

status of the system after your submission of the online <strong>RMA</strong> form. We must have<br />

the Purchase Order for the inspection of the system BEFORE we commence any<br />

assessment.<br />

If your system is within warranty then any valid repairs will be carried out at no<br />

cost to you. We will inspect the laser <strong>and</strong> if in our opinion the warranty has been<br />

invalidated in any way, will inform you of this immediately <strong>and</strong> of any associated<br />

repair costs. Should chargeable repair work be required, we will not commence<br />

any work in the absence of a corresponding purchase order. Should you choose<br />

not to have the repair work carried out we reserve the right to charge an<br />

inspection fee for the initial assessment payable prior to the return shipment of<br />

the laser.<br />

If you choose to have the system repaired pursuant to any quotation we will<br />

require an updated purchase order to reflect the quoted cost of repair prior to<br />

commencing any repair work.<br />

<strong>RMA</strong> Repair Warranty<br />

All items repaired by <strong>Litron</strong> <strong>Lasers</strong> Ltd are warranted for a period of 90 days. This<br />

period applies only to the repaired item whether the system was under warranty


or not. Systems repaired under warranty keep the original warranty period or 90<br />

days, which ever is longer.<br />
