Prices - International
Customers in Austria, China, The Czech and Slovak Republics, France, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan and Turkey should contact their local representative for pricing. International prices will be somewhat higher than the USA/Canada pricing shown above, depending on local documentation requirements, customs and shipping procedures, and other regulatory issues (for example, the European WEEE directive).
Customers in other countries should contact our Canadian headquarters directly for pricing. Avtech can ship internationally by FedEx (preferred), UPS, DHL, or Bax Global.

To form a valid model number:
AVIR-2
+ (select one format: -B, -C)
+ (select one polarity: -P, -N, -PN)
+ (select a power cord: -AC00, -AC01, -AC02, -AC03, -AC06, -AC17, -AC18, -AC19, -AC22)
+ (other possible options: -EA, -EW, -M, -OS, -R5, -TNT, -X1, -X2, -X4)Some options may not be available with all formats (see the table above), and some combinations of options may not be available together. See the data sheet for details.
Our online Model Number Checker tool can be used to validate model numbers.
Please note that the -EW, -EO, and -ED options are not normally recommended for -B units, because they provide remote analog control of the related parameter. The -B units include remote digital control as a standard feature, through the IEEE-488.2 GPIB and RS-232 interfaces.
