Limited Warranty
American Power Conversion (APC) warrants its products to be free from defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of two years from the date of purchase. Its
obligation under this warranty is limited to repairing or replacing, at its own sole option,
any such defective products. To obtain service under warranty you must obtain a Returned
Material Authorization (RMA) number from APC or an APC service center. Products
must be returned to APC or an APC service center with transportation charges prepaid
and must be accompanied by a brief description of the problem encountered and proof
of date and place of purchase. This warranty does not apply to equipment which has
been damaged by accident, negligence, or misapplication or has been altered or modified
in any way. This warranty applies only to the original purchaser who must have properly
registered the product within 10 days of purchase.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, AMERICAN POWER CONVERSION MAKES
NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some states
do not permit limitation or exclusion of implied warranties; therefore, the aforesaid
limitation(s) or exclusion(s) may not apply to the purchaser.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED ABOVE, IN NO EVENT WILL APC BE LIABLE FOR
DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. Specifically, APC is not liable for any costs,
such as lost profits or revenue, loss of equipment, loss of use of equipment, loss of
software, loss of data, costs of substitutes, claims by third parties, or otherwise. This
warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary
from state to state.
Life support policy
As a general policy, American Power Conversion (APC) does not recommend the use
of any of its products in life support applications where failure or malfunction of the
APC product can be reasonably expected to cause failure of the life support device or to
significantly affect its safety or effectiveness. APC does not recommend the use of any
of its products in direct patient care. APC will not knowingly sell its products for use
in such applications unless it receives in writing assurances satisfactory to APC that (a)
the risks of injury or damage have been minimized, (b) the customer assumes all such
risks, and (c) the liability of American Power Conversion is adequately protected under
the circumstances.
Examples of devices considered to be life support devices are neonatal oxygen analyzers,
nerve stimulators (whether used for anesthesia, pain relief, or other purposes),
autotransfusion devices, blood pumps, defibrillators, arrhythmia detectors and alarms,
pacemakers, hemodialysis systems, peritoneal dialysis systems, neonatal ventilator
incubators, ventilators for both adults and infants, anesthesia ventilators, and infusion
pumps as well as any other devices designated as “critical” by the U.S. FDA.
Hospital grade wiring devices and leakage current may be ordered as options on many
APC UPS systems. APC does not claim that units with this modification are certified or
listed as Hospital Grade by APC or any other organization. Therefore these units do not
meet the requirements for use in direct patient care.
