the package walls to prevent swaying inside the package. Package elements are
attached to each other with screws. For handling the packages, see section
Moving and unpacking the drive
The main parts of the drive can be recycled to preserve natural resources and
energy. Product parts and materials should be dismantled and separated.
Generally all metals, such as steel, aluminum, copper and its alloys, and
precious metals can be recycled as material. Plastics, rubber, cardboard and
other packaging material can be used in energy recovery. Printed circuit boards
and DC capacitors (C1-1 to C1-x) need selective treatment according to
IEC 62635 guidelines. To aid recycling, plastic parts are marked with an
approppriate identification code.
Contact your local ABB distributor for further information on environmental
aspects and recycling instructions for professional recyclers. End of life
treatment must follow international and local regulations.
