ARRANTY AND LIABILITY

 

During production and assembling, each BSP gets several controls and tests. They are carried out 
in full respect of fixed procedures. Each BSP is given a serial number allowing a perfect follow-up 
of  the  controls,  in  conformity  with  the  specific  data  of  every  device.  For  this  reason,  it  is  very 
important to never remove the descriptive sticker bearing the serial number. The production, the 
assembling  and  the  tests  of  each  BSP  are  entirely  carried  out  in  our  factory  in  Sion  (CH).  The 
warranty of this product depends on strictly following the instructions in this manual. The warranty 
period for the BSP is 5 years. 

1.3.1

 

Disclaimer of warranty 

No warranty will be applied for damages caused by handling, operation or actions that are not 
described  in  this  manual.  Damages  arisen  from  the  following  events  are  not  covered  by  the 
warranty: 

 

Overvoltage on the device (Applying a voltage higher than 85 Vdc). 

 

Reverse polarity while connecting the battery. 

 

Liquid in the device or oxidation due to condensation. 

 

Failures due to a fall or to a mechanical shock. 

 

Modifications made without the explicit authorization of Studer Innotec SA. 

 

Nuts or screws partially or insufficiently tight during installation or maintenance. 

 

Damages due to atmospheric overvoltage (lightning). 

 

Damages due to transport or improper packaging. 

 

Disappearing of original marking items. 

1.3.2

 

Disclaimer of liability 

Installation,  commissioning,  use  and  maintenance  of  this  device  cannot  be  supervised  by  the 
company Studer Innotec SA. For this reason, we do not accept any liability for damages, costs or 
losses generated either by an installation that is not conforming to the prescriptions, by a defective 
operation or by poor maintenance. The use of this device is under the responsibility of the end-
user. This device is neither designed nor guaranteed for the supply of life support applications or 
any other critical application with potential risks for human beings of for the environment. We shall 
assume  no  liability  for  patent  infringement  or  other  third  party  rights  involved  in  the  use  of  this 
device.

AFETY PRECAUTIONS

 

1.4.1

 

Generalities 

Do read carefully all safety instructions before proceeding to the installation and commissioning 
of the device. Not respecting these instructions might constitute a lethal physical danger but can 
also damage the functionalities of the device. Therefore, do keep this manual close to the device. 

 

Strictly follow the local and national norms and regulations in force. This is valid for all 
installations.
