SPECIAL WARRANTY CONSIDERATIONS:

ABB does not honor OEM warranties for items not manufactured by ABB (i.e. Palm Pilots).  These claims should be handled directly 

with the OEM.

ABB will repair or replace, at ABB’s election, defective items which are returned to ABB by the original purchaser within the period 

specified above from the shipment date of the item and which is found, upon examination by ABB, to its satisfaction, to contain de

-

fects in materials or workmanship which arose only under normal use and service and which were not the result of either alterations, 

misuse, abuse, improper or inadequate adjustments, applications or servicing of the product.  ABB’s warranty does not include 

onsite repair or services.  Field service rates can be supplied on request.

If a product is believed to be defective, the original purchaser shall notify ABB and request a Returned Material Authorization before 

returning the material to ABB, with transportation prepaid by the purchaser.  (To expedite all returns/repairs from outside of the 

United States, consult ABB’s customer service team ([email protected]) to determine an optimal solution for shipping method 

and turnaround time.)  The product, with repaired or replaced parts, shall be returned to the purchaser at any point in the world 

with transportation prepaid by ABB for best-way transportation only.  ABB is not responsible for expedited shipping charges.  If the 

product is shipped to ABB freight collect, then it will be returned to the customer freight collect.

If inspection by ABB does not disclose any defects in material or workmanship, ABB’s normal charges for repair and shipment shall 

apply (minimum 250.00 USD).

The materials of construction for all ABB products are clearly specified and it is the responsibility of the purchaser to determine the 

compatibility of the materials for the application.  

THE FOREGOING WARRANTY IS ABB’S SOLE WARRANTY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED, IMPLIED, OR
