7.  Warranties extend only to defects in materials or workmanship as limited above and do not extend to 

any product or part which has: 

• 

been lost or discarded by you;  

• 

been damaged as a result of misuse, improper installation, faulty or inadequate maintenance or 
failure to follow instructions furnished by us;  

• 

had serial numbers removed, altered, defaced, or rendered illegible; 

• 

been subjected to improper or unauthorized repair; or 

• 

been damaged due to fire, flood, radiation, or other “acts of God” or other contingencies beyond the 
control of Roper Scientific. 

8.  After the warranty period has expired, you may contact the Roper Scientific factory or a Roper 

Scientific-authorized representative for repair information and/or extended warranty plans. 

9.  Physically damaged units or units that have been modified are not acceptable for repair in or out of 

warranty and will be returned as received.  

10.  All warranties implied by state law or non-U.S. laws, including the implied warranties of 

merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are expressly limited to the duration of the limited 
warranties set forth above. With the exception of any warranties implied by state law or non-U.S. laws, 
as hereby limited, the forgoing warranty is exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties, guarantees, 
agreements, and similar obligations of manufacturer or seller with respect to the repair or replacement 
of any parts. In no event shall Roper Scientific’s liability exceed the cost of the repair or replacement of 
the defective product or part. 

11.  This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights that may vary 

from state to state and from country to country. Some states and countries do not allow limitations on 
how long an implied warranty lasts, when an action may be brought, or the exclusion or limitation of 
incidental or consequential damages, so the above provisions may not apply to you. 

12.  When contacting us for technical support or service assistance, please refer to the Roper Scientific 

factory of purchase, contact your authorized Roper Scientific representative or reseller, or visit our 
technical support page at
