Recycling
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 EU legislation requires
its Member States to collect
electrical and electronic equipment and
disposed of it separately from other
unsorted municipal waste with the aim
of recycling it.
In Germany and many other countries,
Sartorius AG 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 States of the European
Economic Area (EEA), please contact
our service technicians on location
or our Service Center in Goettingen,
Germany:

In countries that are not members of
the European Economic Area (EEA) or
where no Sartorius affiliates, sub-
sidiaries, dealers or distributors 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 collec-
tion boxes.
Sartorius AG, its affiliates, subsidiaries,
dealers and distributors will not take
back equipment contaminated with
hazardous materials (ABC contamina-
tion) – either for repair or disposal.
Please refer to the accompanying
leaflet/manual or visit our Internet web-
site (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.
