Terms of Warranty:

APC warrants that the Product shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship, for a period of two (2) years from the date of shipment.

Warranty Procedure

If initial physical inspection results in identification of a material or workmanship flaw(s) that could impair Product performance as defined by APC’s electrical and physical specification in effect at the time of shipment, and if this flaw(s) is not due to transportation damage or installation abuse, contact APC or call the 24-hour emergency number, (800) 800 4APC, to request assistance.

You will be provided either a) an RMA number with instructions for return of the equipment or component(s) to the APC factory service center, FOB destination, freight pre-paid, for examination, or b) for non-returnable systems and equipment, notice to wait until an APC authorized service representative arrives at the site to inspect the equipment. Repaired or advance replacement modules or circuit components will normally be available within 24 to 48 hours of receipt of equipment or RMA.

Warranty Obligations - Repair or Replacement

If, during the warranty period, the Product is found to be physically or electrically faulty due to defective materials or workmanship, the defective Product(s) or component(s) will be repaired or replaced at the sole option of APC. If the procedure outlined above for contacting APC immediately after identifying a material or workmanship flaw(s) that could impair Product performance has been properly followed, such repair or replacement of Product(s) or component(s) shall include all charges for replacement materials or repair labor. Costs incurred for replacement installation including, but not limited to, installation equipment, travel expenses of an APC representative(s), and costs of installation material transportation expenses are not included as a part of this warranty. Any replacement components or materials furnished under this warranty may be new or factory remanufactured. THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER CONSUMABLES OR PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE ITEMS. REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT OR COMPONENT THEREOF DOES NOT EXTEND THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY PERIOD.
