In accordance with the quality guidelines of SEMIKRON, we would like to point out that the products are engineering samples. These engineering samples are not yet produced under quality conditions approaching those of series production, and are at the present time not included in the SEMIKRON quality monitoring and control process. Neither the product nor the production process has to date gone completely through the SEMIKRON internal authorization procedure. SEMIKRON may make any amendments without any prior notification. SEMIKRON cannot and shall not promise or commit itself to release and/or make available a final version or series product after the development phase. SEMIKRON cannot and will not assume any responsibility with regard to freedom from defects, functionality, and adaptation to and interaction with possible applications of the user or with regard to any other potential risks resulting from the use of engineering samples. Therefore SEMIKRON explicitly excludes any warranty and liability; as far as legally possible. The customer shall fully indemnify and hold harmless SEMIKRON from any and all risks, damages, losses, expenses and costs directly or indirectly resulting out of or in connection with the commissioning, operation, system integration, sale, dissemination or any other kind of use of engineering samples by the customer and/or any third party, which has come into possession of engineering samples through or because of the customer. All know-how and all registerable and non-registerable copyrights and industrial property rights arising from or in connection with these engineering samples remain the exclusive property of SEMIKRON.
