Warranty
This equipment is sold subject to the mutual agreement that it is warranted by us
free from defects of material and of construction, and that our liability shall be limited
to replacing or repairing at our factory (without charge, except for transportation), or at
customer plant at our option, any material or construction in which defects become ap-
parent within one year from the date of shipment, except in cases where quotations or
acknowledgments provide for a shorter period. Components manufactured by others bear
the warranty of their manufacturer. This warranty does not cover defects caused by wear,
accident, misuse, neglect or repairs other than those performed by Teledyne or an autho-
rized service center. We assume no liability for direct or indirect damages of any kind and
the purchaser by the acceptance of the equipment will assume all liability for any damage
which may result from its use or misuse.
We reserve the right to employ any suitable material in the manufacture of our ap-
paratus, and to make any alterations in the dimensions, shape or weight of any parts, in so
far as such alterations do not adversely affect our warranty.
Important Notice
This instrument provides measurement readings to its user, and serves as a tool by
which valuable data can be gathered. The information provided by the instrument may as-
sist the user in eliminating potential hazards caused by his process; however, it is essential
that all personnel involved in the use of the instrument or its interface, with the process
being measured, be properly trained in the process itself, as well as all instrumentation
related to it.
The safety of personnel is ultimately the responsibility of those who control pro-
cess conditions. While this instrument may be able to provide early warning of imminent
danger, it has no control over process conditions, and it can be misused. In particular, any
alarm or control systems installed must be tested and understood, both as to how they
operate and as to how they can be defeated. Any safeguards required such as locks, labels,
or redundancy, must be provided by the user or specifically requested of Teledyne at the
time the order is placed.
Therefore, the purchaser must be aware of the hazardous process conditions.
The purchaser is responsible for the training of personnel, for providing hazard warning
methods and instrumentation per the appropriate standards, and for ensuring that hazard
warning devices and instrumentation are maintained and operated properly.
Teledyne Analytical Instruments, the manufacturer of this instrument, cannot
accept responsibility for conditions beyond its knowledge and control. No statement ex-
pressed or implied by this document or any information disseminated by the manufacturer
or its agents, is to be construed as a warranty of adequate safety control under the user’s
process conditions.
