WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS 
Elcontrol  guarantees  that  each  NanoVIP

3

is  free  of  defects,  complies  with  technical  specifications,  and  is 

suitable  for  the  purposes  declared  by  Elcontrol  for  a  period  of  twelve  (12)  months  from  the  documented 
purchase date
 or, in the absence of said date, the date of calibration. 
The warranty covers faulty hardware parts, but not software, consumables and labour and transport costs. 
Repairs  under  warranty  shall  only  be  performed  if  Elcontrol  actually  finds  manufacturing  defects  or  poor 
material quality. 
The  warranty  shall  no  longer  be  valid  if  the  defect  is  due  to:  incorrect  electrical  power  supply,  swells, 
improper  connections,  tampering,  repairs  or  modifications  carried  out  without  the  prior  consent  of  the 
manufacturer, accidents or use other than that described herein. Damage resulting from disuse or any harm 
caused to third parties shall not be covered. 
Faulty  products  must  be  returned  to  the  importer/distributor  in  your  country  or  to  Elcontrol  DELIVERED 
DUTY PAID, subject to prior consent of Elcontrol. 
A request for repair under warranty shall be accompanied by proof-of-purchase, stating the date on which 
the product was purchased. The warranty shall not be valid for products which have not been paid by  the 
purchaser by the agreed deadline, as well as if the faulty product is returned from a country other than that 
where the product was sold, unless otherwise agreed.

 

 

DEFECT REPORT 
Any  defect  reports  regarding  delivered  products  -  whether  apparent  or  latent  -  shall  be  submitted  to 
Elcontrol in writing. 
The  purchaser  can  in  no  way  return  the  products  without  the  prior  consent  of  Elcontrol  or  following  the 
decision of the judicial authorities. 
Products must be returned within ten (10) days of the consent of Elcontrol or the judicial authorities. 
In  the  event  of  a  report  -  regardless  of  the  object  and  reason  therefore  -  the  purchaser  shall  pay  the  full 
amount  indicated  on  the  invoice.  If  the  delivered  products  have  been  modified,  altered  or  used  by  the 
purchaser, no report shall be accepted or deemed valid. 
Discrepancies which are deemed customary in trade, as well as discrepancies which cannot be technically 
avoided,  especially  those  concerning  quality,  colours,  manufacturing  processes,  drawings  and  similar 
aspects, cannot be the object of a claim. 
Elcontrol  reserves  the  right  to  make  any  changes  to  its  products  without  altering  their  quality  or 
performance. Such changes cannot be the object of a claim. 
Whenever Elcontrol receives a claim regarding the condition of a product, quality defects or non-compliance 
with  technical  specifications,  Elcontrol  shall  have  the  right  -  in  its  sole  discretion  -  to  replace  the  products 
without any charge, repair the products or issue a credit note. 
Any kind of damage is excluded. 
In case of interventions under the warranty period, all shipping costs for repairing and/or replacing the faulty 
products shall be borne by the purchaser. 
 
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY 
Except for the warranty, Elcontrol shall in no way be liable for any direct or indirect damage incurred by the 
purchaser,  such  as  –  but  not  limited  to  –  material  damage,  damage  for  loss  in  profit  and  loss,  damage  to 
purchaser's documents, archives or data, damage for third party claims, and damage claimed by any party 
whatsoever, resulting from applications obtained by the purchaser for himself or third parties, with the help – 
or the use – of products purchased from Elcontrol. 
 
FINAL PROVISIONS 
The  warranty  conditions  described  herein  supersede  and  void  any  other  obligations  and  warranties  which 
the  parties  may  have  agreed  upon  –  both  orally  and  in  writing  –  before  the  purchase  of  NanoVIP

3

Therefore, any such obligations or warranties shall be deemed void and invalid.
