9.2 Return
Strictly observe the following when shipping the
instrument:
All instruments delivered to WIKA must be free from any kind
of hazardous substances (acids, bases, solutions, etc.) and
must therefore be cleaned before being returned.
Clean the instrument, see chapter 8.2 "Cleaning".
When returning the instrument, use the original packaging or
a suitable transport packaging.
To avoid damage:
1. Place the instrument, along with shock-absorbent
material, in the packaging. Place shock-absorbent
material evenly on all sides of the transport packaging.
2. If possible, place a bag containing a desiccant inside the
packaging.
3. Label the shipment as carriage of a highly sensitive
measuring instrument.
9.3 Disposal
Incorrect disposal can put the environment at risk.
Dispose of instrument components and packaging materials
in an environmentally compatible way and in accordance with
the country-specific waste disposal regulations.
