(1)  For use under such conditions or in such environments as not stated in technical documents, including catalogs, specification, 

and instruction manuals 

(2)  For use of specific purposes, such as: 

*   Nuclear energy/radiation related facilities  

[When used outside a radiation controlled area and where nuclear power quality is not required]  
[When the limit switch for nuclear power is used]

*  Machinery or equipment for space/sea bottom 
*  Transportation equipment 
 

[Railway, aircraft, vessels, vehicle equipment, etc.] 

*  Antidisaster/crime-prevention equipment 
*  Burning appliances 
*  Electrothermal equipment 
*   Amusement facilities 
*  Facilities/applications associated directly with billing 

(3)  Supply systems such as electricity/gas/water supply systems, large-scale communication systems, and traffic/air traffic control 

systems requiring high reliability 

(4)  Facilities that are to comply with regulations of governmental/public agencies or specific industries 
(5)  Machinery or equipment that may affect human lives, human bodies or properties 
(6)  Other machinery or equipment equivalent to those set forth in items (1) to (5) above which require high reliability and safety 

4.  Precautions against long-term use 

Use of Azbil Corporation’s products, including switches, which contain electronic components, over a prolonged period may degrade 
insulation or increase contact-resistance  and may result in heat generation or any other similar problem causing such product or switch 
to develop safety hazards such as smoking, ignition, and electrification. Although acceleration of the above situation varies depending 
on the conditions or environment of use of the products, you are required not to use any  Azbil Corporation’s products for a period 
exceeding ten (10) years unless otherwise stated in specifications or instruction manuals. 

5.  Recommendation for renewal

Mechanical components, such as relays and switches, used for Azbil Corporation’s products will reach the end of their life due to wear by 
repetitious open/close operations.  
In addition, electronic components such as electrolytic capacitors will reach the end of their life due to aged deterioration based on 
the conditions or environment in which such electronic components are used. Although acceleration of the above situation varies 
depending on the conditions or environment of use, the number of open/close operations of relays, etc.  as prescribed in specifications 
or instruction manuals, or depending on the design margin of your machine or equipment, you are required to renew any Azbil 
Corporation’s products every 5 to 10 years unless otherwise specified in specifications or instruction manuals.  System products, field 
instruments (sensors such as pressure/flow/level sensors, regulating valves, etc.) will reach the end of their life due to aged deterioration 
of parts.  For those parts that will reach the end of their life due to aged deterioration, recommended replacement cycles are prescribed. 
You are required to replace parts based on such recommended replacement cycles. 

6.  Other precautions

Prior to your use of Azbil Corporation’s products, you are required to understand and comply with specifications (e.g., conditions and 
environment of use), precautions, warnings/cautions/notices as set forth in the technical documents prepared for individual Azbil 
Corporation’s products, such as catalogs, specifications, and instruction manuals to ensure the quality, reliability, and safety of those 
products. 

7.  Changes to specifications 

Please note that the descriptions contained in any documents provided by azbil are subject to change without notice for improvement 
or for any other reason.  For inquires or information on specifications as you may need to check, please contact our branch offices or 
sales offices, or your local sales agents. 

8.  Discontinuance of the supply of products/parts

Please note that the production of any Azbil Corporation’s product may be discontinued without notice. After manufacturing is 
discontinued, we may not be able to provide replacement products even within the warranty period.  
For repairable products, we will, in principle, undertake repairs for five (5) years after the discontinuance of those products. In 
some cases, however, we cannot undertake such repairs for reasons, such as the absence of repair parts.  For system products, field 
instruments,  we may not be able to undertake parts replacement for similar reasons. 

9.  Scope of services 

Prices of Azbil Corporation’s products do not include any charges for services such as engineer dispatch service. Accordingly, a separate 
fee will be charged in any  of the following cases: 

(1)  Installation, adjustment, guidance, and attendance at a test run 
(2)  Maintenance, inspection, adjustment, and repair
(3)  Technical guidance and technical education 
(4)  Special test or special inspection of a product under the conditions specified by you

Please note that we cannot provide any services as set forth above in a nuclear energy controlled area (radiation controlled area) or at a 
place where the level of exposure to radiation is equivalent to that in a nuclear energy controlled area.
