Dispose of the APGX-H and any components safely in accordance with all local and national safety and environmental

Alternatively, you may be able to recycle the APGX-H and/or cables; contact Edwards or your supplier for advice
(also see below).
The APGX-H and associated cables are within the scope of the European Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment. Edwards offer European customers a recycling service for the APGX-H/cables at the end of the product’s
