Guidelines for disposal

Injury or material damage if not correctly disposed of
If you do not correctly dispose of direct drives or their components (especially components
with permanent magnets), then this can result in death, severe injury and/or material
damage.
• Ensure that direct drives and their associated components are correctly disposed of.
Main constituents of a proper disposal procedure
● Complete demagnetization of the components that contain permanent magnets
● Components that are to be recycled should be separated into:
– Electronics scrap (e.g. encoder electronics, Sensor Modules)
– Electrical scrap (e.g. motor windings, cables)
– Scrap iron (e.g. laminated cores)
– Aluminum
– Insulating materials
● No mixing with solvents, cold cleaning agents, or residue of paint, for example
A.3.2.2

Disposing of secondary sections

Risk of death and crushing as a result of permanent magnet fields
Severe injury and material damage can result if you do not take into consideration the
safety instructions relating to the permanent magnet fields of the secondary sections.
• Observe the information in Chapter "Danger from strong magnetic fields (Page 29)".
