Warranty & Return Policies

Warranty Policy
Products manufactured by Encoder Products Co., Inc. (EPC International, Inc.), are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship, and are warranted to meet the performance specifications as listed in the current catalog and/or data sheet for the specific product being warranted. This warranty applies to all standard catalog product configurations, with the exception of units with a rated operating temperature exceeding 70° C, for three (3) years following the date of shipment. For units with a rated operating temperature exceeding 70° C the warranty period shall be two (2) years following the date of shipment. During that period, EPC will, at its sole option, repair or replace, at no cost to the customer, products which prove to be defective, provided the defect or failure is not due to misuse or abuse of the product. Any unauthorized attempt to repair the product(s) by the customer, or any unauthorized modifications by the customer, can, at EPC's sole option, cause this warranty to become null and void. In addition, this warranty does not apply to products that have been subjected to abuse or operated in environments that exceed their design specifications. The customer is responsible for shipment of the defective product to the EPC factory. Software products are supplied on a site license basis subject to the same performance warranty provisions; the materials and workmanship provision applies to the distribution media only. NO OTHER WARRANTY, GUARANTEE, OR REPRESENTATION IS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTY FOR MERCHANTABILITY OR FOR FITNESS OF PURPOSE. EPC SHALL, IN NO CASE, BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER. NOTWITHSTANDING, IN ANY CASE, EPC'S LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO REPAIR, REPLACEMENT, OR PURCHASE PRICE REFUND, AT ITS SOLE OPTION, ONLY AFTER THE RETURN OF SUCH GOODS WITH CONSENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RETURN POLICY AND WITH SHIPPING CHARGES PREPAID. ANY WARRANTY SERVICE (CONSISTING OF TIME, TRAVEL, AND EXPENSES RELATED TO SUCH SERVICES) PERFORMED OTHER THAN AT ENCODER PRODUCTS COMPANY'S FACTORY, SHALL BE AT CUSTOMERS EXPENSE.
