This may require part or all of the sensors, control panels or entire gas detection system to be replaced by the Supplier, where a sensor cell or more minor repair was anticipated.\nIt is known that there may be potential for technical developments in gas detection systems which may result in the need for alternative systems or parts from those currently in use, which cannot be adequately quantified or estimated at this time, pending future technical developments.",
