Information and Instructions on Disposal
The equipment, including consumables and empty non-rechargeable and rechargeable
batteries, does not belong in your regular household waste; this equipment is manu-
factured from high-grade materials which can be recycled and reused. European
Directive 2012/19/EU (WEEE) on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
requires that electrical and electronic equipment be collected and disposed of sepa-
rately from other unsorted municipal waste, with the aim of recycling it.
The crossed-out waste bin symbol indicates that separate collection is required.
In Germany and several other countries, Sartorius itself assumes responsibility
for the return and legally compliant disposal of its electronic and electrical products.
These products may not be placed with household waste or brought to collection
centers run by local public disposal operations – not even by small commercial
operators. Please contact Sartorius Service for this purpose.
