Limitation of Warranty and Liability
1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ACE Instruments rejects any further expressly stated or implied warranty, including the marketability and
suitability for a determined purpose. This warranty especially excludes calibration. After changing the sensor,
calibration is absolutely necessary. If an exchange of the sensor or a calibration is required for a product, the
user may receive a cost estimate. Should the user reject the estimate, ACE Instruments will send the product
back unrepaired/not calibrated and the product will be labelled accordingly. Should the product not fulfil the
warranty, the claim of the buyer and the obligations of ACE Instruments are limited exclusively to the discretion
of ACE Instruments for exchange, repair of the affected goods or reimbursement of the purchasing price for
the faulty merchandise.

The thorough check for damage of all products upon receipt, calibration suitable for the given use by the
buyer and the proper use, maintenance and service according to the instructions of the accompanying ACE
Instruments product literature are mandatory prerequisites of this warranty. Maintenance and service work
