NFORMATION
 
Life Support Policy 
Limited Warranty 
Copyright and Trademark Information 
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, infusion pumps, and 
any other device designated as “critical” by the U.S.F.D.A. 
Hospital grade wiring devices and reduced leakage currents that meet medical safety standards may be ordered 
as options on many APC UPS systems. APC does not claim that units with these modifications are certified or 
listed as such by APC or any other organization, therefore these units do not meet the requirements for use in 
direct patient care. 
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, except in India where the period is one year for battery 
module(s). 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 customer support. Products must be returned 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 that 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, 
EXPRESSED 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 have 
other rights that vary from state to state
