Sensor Warranties
(1) The oxygen sensor is guaranteed to operate
satisfactorily for two years from the date of sale (i.e. the
date of shipment) and will be replaced at no charge
within that period only if it will not provide a correct
reading after calibration by authorized service
personnel. Physical or chemical damage, resulting from
exposure to improper elements, is not covered.
(2) The combustible sensor is guaranteed to operate
satisfactorily for two years from date of sale (i.e. from
date of shipment). If It will not provide a correct reading
after calibration by authorized service personnel, it will
be replaced at no charge within that period. This
guarantee is void if it has been contaminated by some
unusual substance, including but not limited to, water
and/or other liquids, oily compounds, corrosives,
silicones, lead vapors, extremely high concentrations of
combustible gases, and various particulates which may
inhibit gas flow to the sensor element.
(3) The toxic sensors are guaranteed to operate
satisfactorily for two years (18 months for CL2, CLO2
and HCN sensors, 12 months for the NH3 sensor) from
the date of sale (i.e. the date of shipment). They will be
replaced at no charge within that period only if they will
not provide a correct reading after calibration by
authorized service personnel, and only if the sensor
membranes exhibit no physical or chemical damage
resulting from exposure to improper substances.
