10.3. Professional installation

RAy units are only intended for installation by professionally trained people and in locations not accessible to the public. Installation and servicing must be carried out by personnel with appropriate technical training and knowledge of potential hazards.

RAy units shall be installed according to local Electrical Safety Codes. Each person participating on the installation has to respect all local standards and regulations for personal security and electromagnetic protection for everybody on the site. We also recommend to consult each site situation with local experts to ensure both the people and installed equipment are safe, the grounding and other protection are chosen reasonably for the actual site conditions. Trained staff must check that all parts recommended by experts regarding grounding and overvoltage protection of sensitive components or infrastructures are perfectly installed, so they effectively protect the equipment against typical situations.

It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that all building and safety codes are met and that the installation is fully completed and equipment properly secured.

10.4. RoHS and WEEE compliance

 
This product is fully compliant with the European Parliament’s 2011/65/EU RoHS (Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment), as amended by Directive (EU) 2015/863, and Directive 2012/19/EU WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) environmental directives.
 
Disposed equipment must be collected separately, and disposed of properly. In any case it may not be put aside as unsorted municipal waste. Equipment has to be returned to supplier or producer (RACOM) or placed to a designated collection point ensuring proper recycling and recovery of waste in an environmentally safe manner using processes that comply with the WEEE Directive.

 

Battery DisposalRACOM products and accessories may contain a battery. Batteries must be disposed of properly, and may not be put aside as unsorted municipal waste. For proper recycling, return the product or its battery to your supplier or place it to a designated collection point.

10.6. Warranty

RACOM supplied parts or equipment (“equipment”) are covered under warranty for inherently faulty parts and workmanship for a warranty period as stated in the delivery documentation from the date of dispatch to the customer. The warranty does not cover custom modifications to software. During the warranty period RACOM shall, on its option, fit, repair or replace (“service”) faulty equipment, always provided that malfunction has occurred during normal use, not due to improper use, whether deliberate or accidental, such as attempted repair or modification by any unauthorised person; nor due to the action of abnormal or extreme environmental conditions such as overvoltage, liquid immersion or lightning strike.

Any equipment subject to repair under warranty must be returned by prepaid freight to RACOM direct. The serviced equipment shall be returned by RACOM to the customer by prepaid freight. If circumstances do not permit the equipment to be returned to RACOM, then the customer is liable and agrees to reimburse RACOM for expenses incurred by RACOM during servicing the equipment on site. When equipment does not qualify for servicing under warranty, RACOM shall charge the customer and be reimbursed for costs incurred for parts and labour at prevailing rates.

This warranty agreement represents the full extent of the warranty cover provided by RACOM to the customer, as an agreement freely entered into by both parties.

RACOM warrants the equipment to function as described, without guaranteeing it as befitting customer intent or purpose. Under no circumstances shall RACOM’s liability extend beyond the above, nor shall RACOM, its principals, servants or agents be liable for any consequential loss or damage caused directly or indirectly through the use, misuse, function or malfunction of the equipment, always subject to such statutory protection as may explicitly and unavoidably apply hereto.

Liability for defects does not apply to any product that has been used in a manner that conflicts with the instructions contained in this operator manual, if the case in which the radio modem is packed has been opened, or if the equipment has been tampered with.
