Warranty

 

  

Prior to shipment, ACCES equipment is thoroughly inspected and tested to applicable specifications. 
However, should equipment failure occur, ACCES assures its customers that prompt service and 
support will be available. All equipment originally manufactured by ACCES which is found to be 
defective will be repaired or replaced subject to the following considerations. 

 

Terms and Conditions

 

If a unit is suspected of failure, contact ACCES' Customer Service department. Be prepared to give 
the unit model number, serial number, and a description of the failure symptom(s). We may suggest 
some simple tests to confirm the failure. We will assign a Return Material Authorization (RMA) 
number which must appear on the outer label of the return package. All units/components should be 
properly packed for handling and returned with freight prepaid to the ACCES designated Service 
Center, and will be returned to the customer's/user's site freight prepaid and invoiced. 

 

Coverage

 

First Three Years: Returned unit/part will be repaired and/or replaced at ACCES option with no 
charge for labor or parts not excluded by warranty. Warranty commences with equipment shipment. 
  
Following Years: Throughout your equipment's lifetime, ACCES stands ready to provide on-site or in-
plant service at reasonable rates similar to those of other manufacturers in the industry. 

 

Equipment Not Manufactured by ACCES
