Precision Vaporizer Services
Full Service
This requires that the vaporizer be removed from your anesthesia machine; a comparable loaner is provided at no charge during your vaporizer's service. Service of a precision vaporizer is NOT something that can be performed on-site. At the service center your vaporizer will be completely dismantled and cleaned; wicks, seals and gaskets will be replaced; worn or damaged parts will be replaced as needed; the vaporizer is then reassembled and recalibrated; multi-phase testing is performed to verify percentage output concentrations to factory specifications. Your freshly serviced vaporizer is then returned to you with a one-year warranty.
Exchange Service:
We will deliver or ship a serviced and calibrated vaporizer to be exchanged for yours. You will keep the vaporizer until your next servicing. The exchange vaporizer is unconditionally guaranteed for one year.
If our technician delivers and installs the exchange unit, a service call fee will apply.
If we ship the exchange vaporizer to you there will be no service call fee. You will simply place your original vaporizer in our same box for pickup and return to us by means of a UPS call tag which we will arrange. We will keep your original vaporizer as part of the exchange program. As an added savings, this servicing has a lower price than the full service where your original vaporizer is returned to you.
Pricing is for servicing and calibration service only; additional charges will apply if damaged parts have to be repaired or replaced on your original vaporizers. This service does not apply to Dupaco anesthesia machines.
Full price of serviced vaporizers will apply if your old vaporizers are not returned to us within 30 days.
In-office Vaporizer Analysis
Includes an external physical examination of the vaporizer and a vaporizer efficacy test, which confirms that the percentage concentration set on the vaporizer dial is the percent concentration being delivered. A high-pressure leak test is performed to confirm leakage is not present. This service does nothing to repair or replace gaskets, wicks or seals of the vaporizer. It is offered as an occasional alternative for, but not a replacement of, full servicing of the vaporizer.
