Disposal - Siemens tiastar Instruction Manual

Disposal

Siemens equipment is environmentally friendly
product predominantly consisting of recyclable
materials. For disposal, some disassembly,
separation, and professional services handling may
be required.
Materials to be handled include but are not
limited to:
• Metals: Should be transferred and recycled as
mixed scrap metals.
• Plastics: Plastic containing a recycle symbol should
be recycled. Plastic lacking the recycle symbol
should be discarded as industrial waste.
• Small electronics, insulated cables, and motors:
Should be recycled via electronics scrap disposal
companies specialized in separating and sorting as
described above.
• Batteries: Should be recycled via a recycling
company.
Disposal regulations vary from locality to locality
and may be modified over time. Specific regulations
and guidelines should be verified at the time
of waste processing to ensure that current
requirements are being fulfilled. For specific
assistance in understanding and applying regional
regulations and policies or manufacturer's
recommendations, refer to the local Siemens
service representative for additional information.
