Types of service available If your instrument fails during the warranty period, Keysight Technologies will repair or replace it under the terms of your warranty. After your warranty expires, Keysight offers repair services at competitive prices. You also have the option to purchase a service contract that extends the coverage after the standard warranty expires.
If required, contact a Keysight Technologies Sales and Service office to arrange for proper cleaning to ensure that safety features and performance are maintained. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions Almost all electrical components can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD) during handling. Component damage can occur at electrostatic discharge voltages as low as 50 V.

Calibration Adjustment Procedures This chapter includes calibration adjustment procedures for Keysight E36150 Series Autoranging DC Power Supply. Perform the verification tests before calibrating your instrument. If the instrument passes the verification tests, the unit is operating within its calibration limits and does not need to be re-calibrated.
You can only store the calibration message when the instrument is unsecured, but you can execute the CALibration:STRing? query regardless of whether the instrument is secured. A new calibration message overwrites the previous message, and messages over 40 characters are truncated. Keysight E36150 Series Service Guide...
