MKS Instruments, Inc. ( MKS ) warrants that for one (1) year from the date of
shipment the equipment described above (the “equipment”) manufactured by
MKS
shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship.
For the period commencing with the date of shipment of this equipment and ending
one (1) year later, MKS will, at its option, either repair or replace any part which is
defective in materials or workmanship or with respect to the date-related operations
warranty without charge to the purchaser. The foregoing shall constitute the
exclusive and sole remedy of the purchaser for any breach by MKS of this
warranty.
The purchaser, before returning any equipment covered by this warranty, which is
asserted to be defective by the purchaser, shall make specific written arrange-
ments with respect to the responsibility for shipping the equipment and handling
any other incidental charges with the MKS sales representative or distributor from
which the equipment was purchased or, in the case of a direct purchase from MKS ,
with the MKS home office in Andover, Massachusetts, USA.
This warranty does not apply to any equipment which has not been installed and
used in accordance with the specifications recommended by MKS for the proper
and normal use of the equipment. MKS shall not be liable under any circumstances
for indirect, special, consequential, or incidental damages in connection with, or
arising out of, the sale, performance, or use of the equipment covered by this
warranty.
MKS recommends that all MKS pressure and flow products be calibrated
periodically (typically every 6 to 12 months) to ensure accurate readings. When a
product is returned to MKS for this periodic re-calibration it is considered normal
preventative maintenance not covered by any warranty.
