Recycling - Fluke 05-450 User Manual

Recycling

The manufacturer of this instrument supports the recycling of the electronics
products it produces for the purpose of protecting the environment and to comply
with all regional, national, and international agencies that promote economically
and environmentally sustainable recycling systems. To this end, the
manufacturer strives to supply the consumer of its goods with information
regarding reuse and recycling of the many different types of materials used in its
products. With many different agencies, public and private, involved in this
pursuit it becomes evident that a myriad of methods can be used in the process
of recycling. Therefore, the manufacturer does not suggest one particular method
over another, but simply desires to inform its consumers of the range of
recyclable materials present in its products, so that the user will have flexibility in
following all local and federal laws.
The following types of recyclable materials are present in manufacturer's
electronics products, and should be recycled separately. The list is not all-
inclusive, nor does it suggest that all materials are present in each piece of
equipment:
•
Batteries
•
Circuit Boards
Products, which have been placed on the market after August 13, 2005, have
been labeled with a symbol recognized internationally as the "crossed-out
wheelie bin." This notifies the consumer that the product is not to be mixed with
unsorted municipal waste when discarding; each material must be separated.
The symbol will be placed near the AC receptacle, except for portable equipment
where it will be placed on the battery lid.
The symbol appears as such:
Glass Aluminum and Stainless Steel
Plastics Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
