General.
a.
This Warranty Agreement provides guidance for the Communications-Electronics Command (CECOM) Warranty
Control Office (WARCO) and user activities in managing and complying with the manufacturer's warranty for the
Diesel Engine Generator Sets, 30 kW, 50/60 and 400 Hz, designated MEP-805B and MEP-815B. The generator sets
were manufactured by MCII under prime contract DAAK01-96-D-0062.
b.
Due to warranty claim(s) processing time, the warranty may not be an appropriate vehicle for maintaining readiness
of Tactical Quiet Generators (TQGs). The requisitioning of replacement parts should be considered in addition to
processing a warranty claim when the rapid restoration of generator set operation is essential to maintain readiness.
c.
The warranty provides that the generator sets and all components at the time of acceptance or delivery will conform
to design and manufacturing requirements, be free from all defects in materials and workmanship, and conform to all
performance requirements delineated in the applicable specifications of the contract. The warranty will be for 1800
operating hours on each unit, or thirty-six (36) months, whichever occurs first, from the date that the unit has been
accepted by the Government. This warranty shall include furnishing of new or repaired items to replace any items
that prove to be nonconforming and/or defective within the warranty period. Such items shall be furnished without
cost to the Government.
d.
When repair or replacement requires transportation of the nonconforming or defective items, shipping cost to
MCII's plant and return shall be at the expense of MCII. A Return Material Authorization (RMA) must be obtained
from MCII in order to secure transportation back to their plant.
