Trade -in Incentive for calibration instruments

Jan 2000 Temperature Measurement

Spescom MeasureGraph has announced that Fluke is offering a trade-in allowance for its full line of production calibration instruments. For a limited time, owners of a wide range of electrical calibrators can gain credit toward the purchase of selected Fluke calibrators.

The new incentive programme applies to a variety of meter, oscilloscope, wattmeter and multifunction calibrators from over 15 different vendors including Fluke. Attractive trade-in allowances will be applied toward the purchase price of any of the following Fluke calibrators: 5500A/5520A multiproduct calibrators, Fluke 5700A/5720A multifunction calibrators, and the 5800A oscilloscope calibrator. In addition, Fluke offers a combination of hardware/software bundles if buyers purchase a software product at the same time.

"Many labs are challenged by rapidly changing and growing calibration workloads. Fluke offers a full range of solutions to meet today's needs," said Morné Maree, Fluke product specialist. "Fluke's calibrator trade-in is designed as an incentive to help labs justify the cost of upgrading their equipment while taking advantage of the performance and productivity gains that new calibration tools offer."

The Fluke Calibration trade-in programme is valid through 31 December, 1999. A complete list of qualifying trade-in models is available by calling Spescom MeasureGraph, a subsidiary of JSE-listed Spescom Electronics Ltd and sole distributor of Fluke products locally.
