Warranty and Claims
We warrant that any equipment of our own manufacture or manufactured for us pursuant to our
specifications which shall not be, at the time of shipment thereof by or for us, free from defects
in material or workmanship under normal use and service, will be repaired or replaced (at our
option) by us free of charge, provided that written notice of such defect is received by us within
twelve (12) months from date of shipment of portable analyzers or within eighteen (18) months
from date of shipment or twelve (12) months from date of installation of permanent equipment,
whichever period is shorter. All equipment requiring repair or replacement under the warranty
shall be returned to us at our factory, or at such other location as we may designate after obtaining
a Returned Material Authorization (RMA) number, transportation prepaid. Such returned equip-
ment shall be examined by us and if it is found to be defective as a result of defective materials or
workmanship, it shall be repaired or replaced as aforesaid. Our obligation does not include the
cost of furnishing any labor in connection with the installation of such repaired or replaced equip-
ment or parts thereof, nor does it include the responsibility or cost of transportation. In addition,
instead of repairing or replacing the equipment returned to us as aforesaid, we may, at our option,
take back the defective equipment, and refund in full settlement the purchase price thereof paid by
Buyer.
Process photometric analyzers, process moisture analyzers, and sampling systems are warranted to
perform the intended measurement, only in the event that the customer has supplied, and AM-
ETEK has accepted, valid sample stream composition data, process conditions, and electrical area
classification prior to order acknowledgment. The photometric light sources are warranted for
ninety (90) days from date of shipment. Resale items warranty is limited to the transferable portion
of the original equipment manufacturer’s warranty to AMETEK. If you are returning equipment
from outside the United State, a statement should appear on the documentation accompanying the
equipment being returned declaring that the goods being returned for repair are American goods,
the name of the firm who purchased the goods, and the shipment date.
The warranty shall not apply to any equipment (or part thereof) which has been tampered with
or altered after leaving our control or which has been replaced by anyone except us, or which has
been subject to misuse, neglect, abuse or improper use. Misuse or abuse of the equipment, or any
part thereof, shall be construed to include, but shall not be limited to, damage by negligence, ac-
cident, fire or force of the elements. Improper use or misapplications shall be construed to include
improper or inadequate protection against shock, vibration, high or low temperature, overpressure,
excess voltage and the like, or operating the equipment with or in a corrosive, explosive or com-
bustible medium, unless the equipment is specifically designed for such service, or exposure to any
other service or environment of greater severity than that for which the equipment was designed.
The warranty does not apply to used or secondhand equipment nor extend to anyone other than
the original purchaser from us.

ER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION AND WARRANTIES OF FIT-
NESS OR OF MERCHANTABILITY OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, AND

ANY ANTICIPATED OR LOST PROFITS, INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-
AGES, TIME CHANGES OR ANY OTHER LOSSES INCURRED BY THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER

LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF FITNESS OR OF MERCHANTABILITY, AS TO ANY OTHER
MANUFACTURER’S EQUIPMENT, WHETHER SOLD SEPARATELY OR IN CONJUNCTION
WITH EQUIPMENT OF OUR MANUFACTURE. WE DO NOT AUTHORIZE ANY REPRESEN-
TATIVE OR OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR US ANY LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH
EQUIPMENT, OR ANY PART THEREOF, COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY.
