Cancellation Policy
© Kayden Instruments. All rights reserved.
Overview
Kayden's Cancellation Policy accounts for the many different types of orders our
customers require. We have set forth the following guidelines to provide our customers with the information before
an order is placed.
Once an order is placed but NOT shipped, the following cancellation fee(s)
will apply.
Once an order has been shipped refer to Kayden's Return Policy.
Kayden provides for cancellations in the following circumstance:
- Should the Customer, for any reason, desire to cancel
his/her current order (prior to shipping) he/she may do so at
anytime after order placement but before the order is
shipped from Kayden’s facility. Where Custom Products,
special equipment or services are involved, Customer shall
be responsible for all related work in progress; however,
Kayden shall take responsible steps to mitigate costs
immediately upon receipt of a written cancellation notice from Customer.
For larger orders Kayden expects the Customer to first
order a small number to determine suitability, compatibility
and satisfactory performance for the intended purpose and process.

Canceling an Order or Partial Order of Standard Products
Cancellation percentage fees for Standard Products are
determined solely by the quantities and ‘U’ lengths (Thermal
Switches and Thermal Sensors) procured. The fees are
applicable to the entire physical configuration of the
Product. Cancellation fees apply to each unit’s net price to
final Customer.
Once an order is placed with Kayden, we will commence
procurement, manufacturing and assembly almost
immediately, thereby incurring costs and allocating the
required materials and resources to fulfill the new order. To
provide our Customers with a fair means of canceling
orders, we offer a cascading fee schedule based on Product
quantity and type.
For the first instance of partial order cancellations,
cancellation percentages are based on the number of
Products being cancelled, NOT the total number on the
order. Subsequent cancellations will be determined using
the number of Products on the original order.
Special documentation, special equipment, special services,
special approvals, drawings, certificates, equipment tags,
setpoints, flow curves, x-rays, dye penetration tests, and
opened software are non-refundable.
Should any event arise that necessitates Customer
cancellation of an active order comprised of Standard
Products, the following Cancellation Fees shall apply:
