Discounted Loaner Hardware
Sending hardware in for calibration leads to downtime in the lab. To compensate, Vibration Research offers a discount on all loaner units when customers with a current U&SA send theirs in for calibration. U&SA Basic provides a 50% discount on loaner hardware, and Premium agreements include free loaner hardware. VR ships the discounted unit to your facility to reduce downtime.
program benefits
Secondary Key
Vibration Research offers a secondary unit key that can replace the main hardware unit while it is out for calibration. When a customer with a current U&SA ships the main unit to VR’s facility, their secondary unit can act as the main controller in its place to help reduce downtime.
