ARRANTY
MICROMERITICS INSTRUMENT CORPORATION warrants for one year from the date of shipment
each instrument it manufactures to be free from defects in material and workmanship impairing its
usefulness under normal use and service conditions except as noted herein.
Our liability under this warranty is limited to repair, servicing and adjustment, free of charge at our
plant, of any instrument or defective parts when returned prepaid to us and which our examination
discloses to have been defective. The purchaser is responsible for all transportation charges involving the
shipment of materials for warranty repairs. Failure of any instrument or product due to operator error,
improper installation, unauthorized repair or alteration, failure of utilities, or environmental
contamination will not constitute a warranty claim. The materials of construction used in
MICROMERITICS instruments and other products were chosen after extensive testing and experience
for their reliability and durability. However, these materials cannot be totally guaranteed against wear
and / or decomposition by chemical action (corrosion) as a result of normal use.
Repair parts are warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship for 90 days from the
date of shipment.
No instrument or product shall be returned to MICROMERITICS prior to notification of alleged defect
and authorization to return the instrument or product. All repairs or replacements are made subject to
factory inspection of returned parts.
MICROMERITICS shall be released from all obligations under its warranty in the event repairs or
modifications are made by persons other than its own authorized service personnel unless such work is
authorized in writing by MICROMERITICS.
The obligations of this warranty will be limited under the following conditions:
1. Certain products sold by MICROMERITICS are the products of reputable manufacturers, sold
under their respective brand names or trade names. We, therefore, make no express or implied
warranty as to such products. We shall use our best efforts to obtain from the manufacturer, in
accordance with his customary practice, the repair or replacement of such of his products that
may prove defective in workmanship or materials. Service charges made by such manufacturer
are the responsibility of the ultimate purchaser. This states our entire liability in respect to such
products, except as an authorized person of MICROMERITICS may otherwise agree to in writ-
ing.
2. If an instrument or product is found defective during the warranty period, replacement parts may,
at the discretion of MICROMERITICS, be sent to be installed by the purchaser, e.g., printed cir-
cuit boards, check valves, seals, etc.
3. Expendable items, e.g., sample tubes, detector source lamps, indicator lamps, fuses, valve plugs
(rotor) and stems, seals and O-rings, ferrules, etc., are excluded from this warranty except for
manufacturing defects. Such items which perform satisfactorily during the first 45 days after the
date of shipment are assumed to be free of manufacturing defects.
