Manufacturer's product liability

The manufacturer's product liability shall be excluded if at least one of the following
criteria applies:
1. Original Siemens spare parts are not used.
2. Fitters carrying out replacements have not been trained and certified by Sie-
mens.
3. Parts have been incorrectly mounted or adjusted.
4. Settings are not made in accordance with Siemens specifications.

Disposal

The materials of the vacuum contactor should be recycled if possible. Disposal of
the vacuum contactor with minimum environmental impact is possible on the basis
of existing legal regulations.
The switching device's metal components can be recycled as mixed scrap, although
it is more environmentally sustainable to dismantle the unit as thoroughly as possi-
ble into sorted scrap and residual mixed scrap.
Electronic scrap must be disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations.
The vacuum contactor consists of the following materials:
• Steel ( partly phosphatised, galvanised and CrVI-free passivated)
• Copper or aluminium ( partly silver-plated)
• Plastics (cycloaliphatic epoxy resin, polyamide, polyester, polycarbonate, ABS-
PC mixture; partly glass fibre reinforced)
• Rubber materials
• Ceramics
• Lubricant

When delivered by Siemens, the product does not contain any hazardous substanc-
es within the scope of the Hazardous Substances Ordnance applicable to the terri-
tory of the Federal Republic of Germany. The switching devices are free from
asbestos, halogens, and lead. For operation outside the Federal Republic of Ger-
many, the applicable local laws and regulations must be complied with.
