Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) Directive
DA-DHR/DH/DSR/DS/HR/H6802+ Installation and Operation Manual
The European Union (EU) Directive 2002 / 96 / EC on Waste from
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) deals with the collection,
treatment, recovery, and recycling of electrical and electronic waste
products. The objective of the WEEE Directive is to assign the
responsibility for the disposal of associated hazardous waste to either
the producers or users of these products. As of August 13, 2005,
producers or users are required to recycle electrical and electronic
equipment at end of its useful life, and must not dispose of the
equipment in landfills or by using other unapproved methods. (Some
EU member states may have different deadlines.)
In accordance with this EU Directive, companies selling electric or
electronic devices in the EU will affix labels indicating that such
products must be properly recycled. (See our website for more
information on dates and deadlines for compliance.) Contact your local
Sales representative for information on returning these products for
recycling. Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be
marked with a WEEE-compliant symbol, as shown in
