1 Introduction
1.1 Unpacking
To unpack the unit, proceed as follows:
•
Place the box on the floor and remove the accessories pack.
•
Pull out the unit, slowly and carefully, using the two foam inserts.
•
Remove the polythene packaging by placing the unit on a firm base and lifting at one side,
then the other, while drawing the packaging out from underneath it.
Please note:
Retain all original packing materials in a safe place. It is the optimum
packaging for shipping the unit (e.g. for repair). Shipping of the unit in
any other packaging automatically nullifies the warranty.
•
Check-off the contents of the accessory pack against the list in section "Standard
Accessories UVD 170S/340S", page 24)
1.2 Warranty
The standard warranty coverage for this unit is in accordance with the conditions of sale. The
warranty has a duration of one year from invoice date and covers materials and labour, ex-
works. Please note that wear-parts (i.e. needle, needle-seat, syringe and valve-seals) cannot be
covered by the warranty.
The warranty period for the deuterium lamp is six months from delivery date (see the label at
the lamp cable). Removing this label automatically invalidates the warranty coverage.
For
lamps with timer (without the above label) the warranty period is 1000 operating hours.
The warranty does not extend to the flow cell.
The warranty coverage shall become invalid in any case identified as resulting from
inappropriate use, service or the implementation of non-specified spare parts. Similarly, the
warranty coverage shall be invalidated in the event of inappropriate shipment, packaging or
failure to remove aggressive or damaging solvent residues.
