Appendix
Information and Instructions on
Disposal and Repairs
Packaging that is
no longer required
must be disposed
of at the local waste
disposal facility. The
packaging is made
of environmentally
friendly materials
that can be used as secondary raw
materials.
The equipment, including
accessories and batteries, does not
belong in your regular household
waste. The European legislation
requires that electrical and elec-
tronic equipment be collected and
disposed of separately from other
communal waste with the aim of
recycling it.
In Germany and many other
countries, Sartorius Stedim Biotech
takes care of the return and legally
compliant disposal of its electrical
and electronic equipment on its
own. These products may not be
placed with the household waste or
brought to collection centers
run by local public disposal
operations – not even by small
commercial operators.
For disposal in Germany and in
the other member nations of the
European Economic Area (EEA),
please contact our Service techni-
cians on location or our Service
Center in Goettingen, Germany:
Sartorius AG
Service Center
Weender Landstrasse 94-108
37075 Goettingen, Germany
In countries that are not members
of the European Economic Area
(EEA) or where no Sartorius sub-
sidiaries or dealerships are located,
please contact your local authorities
or a commercial disposal operator.
Prior to disposal and|or scrapping
of the equipment, any batteries
should be removed and disposed
of in local collection boxes.
Sartorius will not take back
equipment contaminated with
hazardous materials (ABC con-
tamination) – either for repair
or disposal. Please refer to the
accompanying leaflet|manual
or visit our Internet website
(www.sartorius.com) for compre-
hensive information that includes
our service addresses to contact if
you plan to send your equipment
in for repairs or proper disposal.
