!Do not allow any substances or cleaning
products to enter the weigh cell
housing or come into contact with the
electronic components of the weigh
cell.

ponents.

weigh cell may not be connected to AC
power (power supply).

operation of the weigh cell with the AC
adapter is no longer warranted:
§ Turn off the power and disconnect the
equipment from AC power immediately.

ured with a constant voltage of at least
500 V at a 500 kOhm load

Instructions for
Recycling
If you no longer need the packaging after
successful installation of the equipment,
you should return it for recycling. The
packaging is made from environmentally
friendly materials and is a valuable source
of secondary raw material.
The equipment, including accessories and
batteries, may not be disposed of as ordi-
nary household waste. European Union
regulations require electric and electronic
devices to be disposed of separately from
unsorted municipal waste so that they may
be subsequently recycled.
In Germany and some other countries,
Sartorius AG will take back electric and
electronic equipment and packaging for
disposal in accordance with the applicable
laws. These products may not be disposed
of as household waste or at collection
points designated by local public waste
disposal companies. This applies to small
businesses as well.
In Germany and in member nations of the
European Economic Area, please contact
your local Sartorius service provider or the
Sartorius Service Center in Goettingen,
Germany, if you need to recycle equipment
or packaging material:
Sartorius AG
Service Center
Weender Landstrasse 94-108
37075 Goettingen
Germany
If you set up the equipment in a country
that is not a member of the European Eco-
nomic Area or does not have a Sartorius
branch office, please contact your local
waste disposal authorities or disposal com-
pany for information on similar services.
Equipment that has been contaminated
with hazardous substances (ABC contami-
nation) will not be accepted for repair or
recycling. Please refer to our website
(www.sartorius.com) for service addresses
and extensive information on repairing or
recycling your equipment. This information
is also available from the Sartorius Service
Center on request.
