any of its products is minimized as far as possible. The European Waste Electrical and

aims to reduce the waste arising from electrical and electronic equipment; and improve the

equipment.

above), electrical equipment marked with the above symbol may not be disposed of in
European public disposal systems after 12 August 2005.
Hach will offer to take back ( free of charge to the customer ) any old, unserviceable or
redundant analyzers and systems which carry the above symbol, and which were originally
