Vigil PSB-8 (update to PSB-7)

Recommended Posts

Please see the information on the update to PSB-7 below from Vigil.

Please find attached our Vigil PSB–8. This is an update that replaces our recent PSB-7. Vigil PSB-8 includes better guidance and compliance requirements, as well as expanded serial numbers to be checked for October 07 cutters.
Only those cutters found with an OCT 07 manufacture date on the cutter itself must be replaced. We have received some cutters with Sept and Nov 07 dates. September and November 07 cutters would only require the magnet test be performed.

As always, please feel free to contact us with any questions.


Best Regards,

they recommend to magnet-check all cutters older than june 08...

riggers, do you perform the check for free ? do you charge an opening/reclosing of the rigs you have already packed yourself ? Do you charge a complete repack if you had not packed the reserve yourself ?

Hi, Nicholas.

None of my clients have units that are shown on the list, so I am leaving the choice up to them as to whether or not the cutter gets checked before the next I&R.

If one should choose to have it checked:

Yes - a full I&R is the only way that's going to happen at Chez Loft de Nova
