Rebec's Promise To You

Rebec Limited Lifetime Warranty

Rebec LLC warrants its amalgam separators to be free of defects in material and workmanship, and to meet or exceed the ISO 11143:2008; ANSI/ADA standard, with a minimum removal efficiency of 99% in original conditions, with the following qualifications.

This Limited Lifetime Warranty Will Be Invalidated If Any Of The Following Conditions Are Not Met:

The Unit must be installed inline on the vacuum side of a typical dental vacuum system.
The Unit must be installed in strict accordance with the official Rebec installation instructions.
The Unit must be installed in proper orientation as defined in the official Rebec installation instructions.
Pumice used with air-abrasion or prophy-jet use is only approved with Rebec Plus systems. Use with non-Plus systems will invalidate the warranty.
The Unit must be installed at or near the same elevation as the vacuum pump, with no more than a 5-feet elevation difference unless approved by Rebec in advance.
There must be no increase in the number of hygienists or dentists on the system after the original installation unless such increases are within the operating capacity of the unit as defined in the official Rebec specification sheets that were in effect at the time of initial installation.
The unit will be operated in a manner consistent with the usage instructions in the official Rebec operating instructions.
Nothing other than normal dental vacuum line effluent shall be discharged through the equipment.
If different vacuum equipment is installed after initial installation of the Rebec unit, Rebec must be notified prior to this change, especially if the new vacuum equipment will increase vacuum flow.
The Unit and all fittings and connectors must not be modified or abused in any way.
The product must be used in a normal “office” setting completely protected from negative environmental situations.
The Unit must be kept from freezing.
The Unit must not be submerged or left in standing water.
The Unit must be enclosed to protect from weather.
The customer must maintain the equipment as specified in the official Rebec product instructions for that model.
Rebec must be notified of the initial installation date by completion of a warranty notification card within 2 weeks of original installation to validate warranty.
The vacuum system must be flushed and cleaned according to vacuum pump manufacturer’s maintenance instructions.
Vacuum line cleanser should not contain bleach or chlorinated detergents.
Vacuum line cleanser should not be acidic.
Vacuum lines should be disinfected at least once a week to prevent bacterial growth.
The collecting container(s) on the Rebec unit must be replaced annually on each “scheduled maintenance date.” The “scheduled maintenance date” will be one year from the date of the initial installation of the amalgam separator and each year following on that date. The replacement collecting container(s) must be installed properly as defined in the official Rebec installation instructions on or before each scheduled maintenance date.
Spent collecting containers must be returned to a Rebec LLC authorized amalgam sludge processor for recycle and replacement within 2 months of each scheduled maintenance date. In accordance with the Rebec installation instructions for replacement collecting containers, the customer is responsible for notifying Rebec when the spent collecting container is ready for pick-up. This warranty will be voided if Rebec does not receive the spent collector within 2 months of the scheduled maintenance date.
Hose fitting washers must be inspected and replaced as necessary during scheduled maintenance.

This warranty will be voided if any Rebec products are mishandled, used incorrectly, or used for any purpose other than that for which they were designed and intended by Rebec.
