xx TSQ Series Hardware Manual Thermo Scientific
Service Philosophy
Servicing the TSQ system consists of performing procedures required to maintain system
performance standards, prevent system failure, restore the system to an operating condition,
or all of the above. Routine and preventive maintenance procedures are documented in this
manual.
The user is responsible for routine and preventive maintenance during and after the warranty
period. Regular maintenance increases the life of the system, maximizes the up-time of your
system, and allows you to achieve optimum system performance.
Only a Thermo Fisher Scientific customer support engineer can perform services not
described in this manual.
Level of Repair
Thermo Fisher Scientific’s service philosophy for the TSQ system calls for troubleshooting to
the lowest part, assembly, or module listed in Chapter 8, “Replaceable Parts.”
For mechanical failures: A mechanical assembly typically is to be repaired to the level of the
smallest item listed in Chapter 8, “Replaceable Parts.”
