EnerSys Delaware Inc. (“EnerSys”) warrants its DataSafe™ HX and HX-FT valve regulated lead acid (VRLA) UPS
cycle service batteries, racks and cabinets against defective materials and workmanship for the full period as defined in
Table A or Table B set forth below, from the date the battery is placed in service or the full period plus six months from

A. If initial physical inspection identifies flaws in material or workmanship that would impair life of the battery, as
defined by this warranty, or product performance, as defined by the EnerSys electrical and physical specification
as published at the time of shipment and these flaws are not due to transportation damage or installation abuse;
OR
B. If on initial “Acceptance Test”, as defined in IEEE Std. 1188, “IEEE Recommended Practice for Maintenance,
Testing, and Replacement of Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) Batteries for Stationary Applications”, the
properly installed battery string fails to meet the published performance ratings* per the latest catalog data
published by EnerSys at the time of shipment.
In the event of either A or B above, then contact your nearest EnerSys sales representative to request instructions. You
will be instructed either a) to return the equipment to an EnerSys factory or service center location, FOB Destination-

workmanship on the part of EnerSys, the defective cell(s) or rack component(s) will be repaired or replaced at the
option of EnerSys without charge to the purchaser (user) for replacement materials or repair labor. However, costs of
replacement installation, including but not limited to, equipment, travel expenses of EnerSys representatives(s), and
