7.0 Maint<strong>en</strong>ance and servicing<br />

• The <strong>ATMOS</strong> S <strong>61</strong> <strong>Servant</strong> <strong>ENT</strong> <strong>workstation</strong> <strong>is</strong> equipped with maint<strong>en</strong>ance-free pumps for suction and compressed air.<br />

Never<strong>the</strong>less, to <strong>en</strong>sure correct functioning of <strong>the</strong> unit over a long period of time simple maint<strong>en</strong>ance work which can ei<strong>the</strong>r<br />

be done by <strong>the</strong> user himself, or, if desired, by service technicians, <strong>is</strong> necessary from time to time.<br />

• To guarantee correct function of <strong>the</strong> automatic rinsing and suction mechan<strong>is</strong>m, switch off <strong>the</strong> <strong>ENT</strong> unit prior<br />

to change <strong>the</strong> collection jar.<br />

• There <strong>is</strong> a service compartm<strong>en</strong>t (lower part of <strong>the</strong> function column) which contains <strong>the</strong> parts needed for<br />

<strong>the</strong> maint<strong>en</strong>ance procedures. The possible maint<strong>en</strong>ance procedures are described in <strong>the</strong> following<br />

sections.<br />

• A safety-related check of <strong>the</strong> <strong>ATMOS</strong> S <strong>61</strong> <strong>Servant</strong> <strong>is</strong> to be effected acc. to <strong>the</strong> local rules in your country. Never<strong>the</strong>less, we<br />

recomm<strong>en</strong>d a yearly check acc. to <strong>the</strong> annexed service booklet.<br />

7.1 Replacing <strong>the</strong> fuse<br />

The fuses are at <strong>the</strong> back of <strong>the</strong> unit.<br />

7.2 Replacing <strong>the</strong> bacterial filter<br />

• To th<strong>is</strong> please att<strong>en</strong>d <strong>the</strong> articles 4.7 and 5.2.4 in th<strong>is</strong> operating instruction!<br />

• Set vacuum regulator to `maximum´ (right stop).<br />

• As soon as <strong>the</strong> vacuum gauge shows a vacuum value >-0.3 bar while <strong>the</strong> suction hose <strong>is</strong> op<strong>en</strong>,<br />

<strong>the</strong> filter has to be replaced.<br />

To guarantee full function of <strong>the</strong> automatic collection jar draining system, fi ll level electrodes always have to be<br />

clean and free from sedim<strong>en</strong>ts!<br />

If <strong>the</strong>re <strong>is</strong> no drastic vacuum at <strong>the</strong> handle after assembly of <strong>the</strong> collection jar, check <strong>the</strong> float in <strong>the</strong> splash guard<br />

for flexibility.<br />

7.3 Changing tube cassette of tube pump<br />

The tube cassette <strong>is</strong> in <strong>the</strong> unit`s pump room.<br />

It may only be replaced by authorized personnel !<br />

We assume no liability for errors and damage caused by inaccurate or<br />

incomplete ordering details.<br />

4. Prices<br />

Unless o<strong>the</strong>rw<strong>is</strong>e stated in <strong>the</strong> order confirmation, our prices in <strong>the</strong><br />

order confirmation are ex factory prices and exclude packaging and<br />

value added tax. Packaging <strong>is</strong> charged separately at cost price in <strong>the</strong><br />

invoice. Value added tax <strong>is</strong> charged separately in <strong>the</strong> invoice according<br />

to <strong>the</strong> legal rate on <strong>the</strong> invoice date. We reserve <strong>the</strong> right to change<br />

prices appropriately should price reductions or increases, especially<br />

due to wage settlem<strong>en</strong>ts, changes in <strong>the</strong> price of materials or curr<strong>en</strong>cy<br />

fluctuations, be incurred. Proof of such changes will be provided for <strong>the</strong><br />

cli<strong>en</strong>t on request.<br />

5. Paym<strong>en</strong>t Conditions - Balancing<br />

Unless o<strong>the</strong>rw<strong>is</strong>e stated in <strong>the</strong> order confirmation, our invoices<br />

are payable with a 3% d<strong>is</strong>count within 10 days (except for repair and<br />

assembly services) or within 21 days from <strong>the</strong> invoice date net cash;<br />

money receipts <strong>is</strong> dec<strong>is</strong>ive for complying with th<strong>is</strong> term. We are <strong>en</strong>titled<br />

to charge interest after <strong>the</strong> due date at a rate 2% above <strong>the</strong> relevant<br />

basic interest rate of <strong>the</strong> German Federal Bank. Should <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t have<br />

paym<strong>en</strong>t arrears, we are <strong>en</strong>titled to charge interest on arrears at a rate<br />

5% above <strong>the</strong> relevant basic interest rate of <strong>the</strong> German Federal Bank.<br />

Should we be able to prove higher damages due to arrears, we are also<br />

<strong>en</strong>titled to claim <strong>the</strong>se. The cli<strong>en</strong>t only has <strong>the</strong> right to balance invoices<br />

against its own claims should such claims be confirmed in a court of<br />

law or recogn<strong>is</strong>ed by us. The cli<strong>en</strong>t does not have <strong>the</strong> right of ret<strong>en</strong>tion<br />

due to d<strong>is</strong>puted counterclaims.<br />

6. Delivery Periods<br />

Fulfilm<strong>en</strong>t of our delivery duties requires <strong>the</strong> punctual and proper<br />

fulfilm<strong>en</strong>t of <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t’s duties. The right to def<strong>en</strong>se on <strong>the</strong> grounds of an<br />

unfulfilled contract <strong>is</strong> reserved.Should <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t default in accepting <strong>the</strong><br />

goods delivery or breach o<strong>the</strong>r cooperation duties, we are <strong>en</strong>titled ei<strong>the</strong>r<br />

to withdraw from <strong>the</strong> contract or claim comp<strong>en</strong>sation for any increased<br />

costs incurred up to that time without setting a fur<strong>the</strong>r deadline. The right<br />

to make fur<strong>the</strong>r claims <strong>is</strong> reserved. Fur<strong>the</strong>rmore, in such cases, <strong>the</strong> r<strong>is</strong>k<br />

of coin-cid<strong>en</strong>tal destruction or a coincid<strong>en</strong>tal deterioration in <strong>the</strong> quality<br />

of <strong>the</strong> delivered goods <strong>is</strong> transferred to <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t in <strong>the</strong> case of default<br />

in accepting such goods or paym<strong>en</strong>t arrears. Acts of God or stoppages<br />

(due to insuffici<strong>en</strong>t supplies of material, industrial d<strong>is</strong>putes etc.) <strong>en</strong>title<br />

us ei<strong>the</strong>r to demand an appropriate ext<strong>en</strong>sion of delivery periods or to<br />

partly or <strong>en</strong>tirely d<strong>is</strong>solve <strong>the</strong> delivery contract. <strong>Th<strong>is</strong></strong> does not give <strong>the</strong><br />

cli<strong>en</strong>t <strong>the</strong> right to claim damages. We have fulfilled delivery periods if <strong>the</strong><br />

delivery goods have left our factory or <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t has be<strong>en</strong> informed of<br />

<strong>the</strong> goods’ readiness for delivery within such delivery periods. Delivery<br />

periods stipulated by <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t are not recogn<strong>is</strong>ed by us unless <strong>the</strong>y<br />

form part of our order confirmation. We adhere to legal terms and<br />

conditions in cases where, as a result of an undue delay in <strong>the</strong> delivery<br />

for which we are liable, <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t <strong>is</strong> <strong>en</strong>titled to claim that h<strong>is</strong> interests<br />

in a continued fulfilm<strong>en</strong>t of <strong>the</strong> contract have ceased. We also adhere<br />

to legal terms and conditions should a delay in delivery be caused by<br />

deliberate or grossly neglig<strong>en</strong>t action by us or our repres<strong>en</strong>tatives for<br />

which we are responsible. We are also responsible for such actions by<br />

our repres<strong>en</strong>tatives or ag<strong>en</strong>ts. Should <strong>the</strong> delivery delay not be caused<br />

by our deliberate infringem<strong>en</strong>t of contractual duties for which we are<br />

responsible, our liability <strong>is</strong> limited to damage which <strong>is</strong> regarded as typical<br />

for that case. We are liable according to <strong>the</strong> legal terms and conditions if<br />

and in so far as <strong>the</strong> delivery delay for which we are responsible <strong>is</strong> caused<br />

by an infringem<strong>en</strong>t of a substantial contractual duty. In such cases, our<br />

liability <strong>is</strong> also limited to damage which <strong>is</strong> regarded as typical for that<br />

case. Should <strong>the</strong> delivery delay be caused by a culpable infringem<strong>en</strong>t<br />

of non-substantial contractual duties, our cli<strong>en</strong>t <strong>is</strong> also <strong>en</strong>titled to claim<br />

<strong>is</strong> limited to damage which <strong>is</strong> regarded as typical for tthat case. <strong>Th<strong>is</strong></strong><br />

also applies in <strong>the</strong> case of our culpable infringem<strong>en</strong>t of substantial<br />

a one-off damage comp<strong>en</strong>-sation worth 3 perc<strong>en</strong>tage points of <strong>the</strong> contractual duties The ind<strong>is</strong>p<strong>en</strong>sable conditions of German Liability<br />

which <strong>is</strong> no higher than 15 perc<strong>en</strong>tage points of <strong>the</strong> delivery value of<br />

<strong>the</strong> goods<br />

7. Delivery - Familiar<strong>is</strong>ation<br />

In <strong>the</strong> case of <strong>the</strong> delivery of devices for <strong>the</strong> medico-technical industry<br />

which require assembly and/or familiar<strong>is</strong>ation for <strong>the</strong> final customer using<br />

special<strong>is</strong>t trade personnel (such as Ear, Nose and Throat Apparatus and<br />

Suction Units), we reserve <strong>the</strong> right to deliver <strong>the</strong> goods exclusively to<br />

<strong>the</strong> relevant special<strong>is</strong>t traders. Should <strong>the</strong> trader not carry out assembly<br />

and/or familiar<strong>is</strong>ation for <strong>the</strong> final customer, th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> carried out by us. In<br />

such cases, we reserve <strong>the</strong> right to charge <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t for <strong>the</strong> additionally<br />

created costs. Our special<strong>is</strong>t traders operate a recording system so<br />

that, if necessary, our products can be traced to <strong>the</strong> final customer. The<br />

special<strong>is</strong>t trader undertakes to immediately report to us all ev<strong>en</strong>ts and<br />

r<strong>is</strong>ks which must be reported in connection with our products.<br />

Law remain unaffected <strong>the</strong>reby.<br />

- For second-hand equipm<strong>en</strong>t, <strong>the</strong> period of warranty shall be reduced<br />

to a period of twelve months.<br />

10. Reservation of Ownership<br />

We retain ownership of our goods until <strong>the</strong> receipt of all paym<strong>en</strong>ts<br />

ar<strong>is</strong>ing from <strong>the</strong> business relationship, including all demands ar<strong>is</strong>ing<br />

from installation orders, subsequ<strong>en</strong>t orders, repairs, accessory deliveries<br />

and replacem<strong>en</strong>t orders. Should we have agreed upon paym<strong>en</strong>t on <strong>the</strong><br />

bas<strong>is</strong> of cheque and bill transactions, <strong>the</strong> ownership reservation applies<br />

until <strong>the</strong> cheque received by us has be<strong>en</strong> paid in, and does not expire<br />

through our credit upon receiving <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t’s cheque. In <strong>the</strong> case of<br />

a breach of contract by <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t, especially paym<strong>en</strong>t arrears, we are<br />

<strong>en</strong>titled to repossess our goods. Repossession of our goods repre-s<strong>en</strong>ts<br />

a withdrawal from <strong>the</strong> contract, unless explicitly declared in writing by<br />

us. We have <strong>the</strong> right to util<strong>is</strong>e <strong>the</strong> product after its repossession, whilst<br />

<strong>the</strong> income form such use <strong>is</strong> balanced against <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t’s arrears, after<br />

8. Passage of R<strong>is</strong>k - Packaging<br />

Unless o<strong>the</strong>rw<strong>is</strong>e stated in our order confirmation, delivery <strong>is</strong> agreed<br />

ex factory. The r<strong>is</strong>k of <strong>the</strong> goods’ damage or loss <strong>is</strong> <strong>the</strong>refore transferred<br />

to <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t as soon as <strong>the</strong> goods leave <strong>the</strong> factory or <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t <strong>is</strong> in<br />

default of acceptance of <strong>the</strong> goods. <strong>Th<strong>is</strong></strong> also applies to cases where we<br />

confirm prepaid carriage. Transport packaging and all o<strong>the</strong>r packaging<br />

according to <strong>the</strong> packaging regulations <strong>is</strong> not returnable. Our cli<strong>en</strong>t <strong>is</strong><br />

responsible for d<strong>is</strong>posing <strong>the</strong> packaging at its own cost. Our deliveries are<br />

insured by us at <strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t’s exp<strong>en</strong>se unless explicitly o<strong>the</strong>rw<strong>is</strong>e agreed.<br />

No insurance <strong>is</strong> arranged in <strong>the</strong> case of goods which are collected by<br />

our cli<strong>en</strong>ts. In <strong>the</strong> case of transport damage, claims are only handled if<br />

<strong>the</strong> cli<strong>en</strong>t receives confirmation of any damage, reduced weight or loss<br />

by <strong>the</strong> shipping company before accepting <strong>the</strong> delivery.<br />

9. Warranty<br />
