Annual audit? Not for another 2 years!
Unlike other manufacturers, the annual inspection of Rau measuring devices is only due every two years.
This saves you time and money and allows you to use your tester without annual interruptions.
We will check, calibrate, service and maintain your measuring device in our on-site workshop in Meitingen within around 10 days.
It will then be fully operational again for the next 24 months.
The unbeatable advantages of the annual audit.
- Precise calibration and software updates
- Replacement of wearing parts
- Maintenance of measuring device and accessories (incl. all test pieces and adapters)
- DVGW certification for 2 years and documentation of the annual inspection as proof of insurance in the event of damage
When is my next annual audit due?
This allows you to quickly and easily determine yourself when you should send your appliance in for its next annual inspection:
Test report (A4 sheet of paper): You will receive a test report upon purchase and for each annual test.
There you will find the date of the last inspection of the measuring device and the next annual inspection due.
You can also find the serial number of your device there.
Test sticker on the meter: A silver inspection sticker (round sticker) is attached to the inside of your meter.
The month and year of the next due annual inspection are marked with holes.
You can find detailed explanations and further information in our video “When is the next annual audit due?”
Repair - yes or no?
