ABB SSAC 10 Year Warranty
ABB SSAC warrants its standard catalog products against defects in material or workmanship for a period of ten years from the date of shipment as indicated by the date stamped on the product (or product label) or by the invoice date when stamping is impractical. The liability of ABB SSAC under this warranty is limited, at ABB SSAC's option, to replacement, repair or credit at the purchase price, for any devices which are returned by the customer during the warranty period. In order to permit ABB SSAC to properly administer this warranty, the customer shall (a) notify ABB SSAC promptly in writing of any claims and receive return authorization by ABB SSAC; (b) provide ABB SSAC with the opportunity to inspect and test the product claimed to be defective. Such inspection may be on customer's premises or ABB SSAC may request return of such product at customer's expense. Adjustment is contingent upon ABB SSAC's examination of product disclosing that apparent defects have not been caused by misuse, abuse, improper installation or application, repair, alteration, accident or negligence in use, storage, transportation or handling; and that the original identification markings have not been removed, defaced or altered. This warranty constitutes ABB SSAC's sole liability hereunder and is in lieu of any other warranty expressed, implied or statutory.
