11 Reshipment and disposal
11.1 Declaration of Decontamination
Due to legal regulations and to ensure safety of our employees, Hitachi High-Tech
Analytical Science requires a signed Declaration of Decontamination prior to processing
your reshipment.
Enclose this form signed with the shipping documents and attach it on the outside of the
packaging. Reshipments that have been exposed to hazardous substances and which
have not been decontaminated according to good professional practice, are not
processed and returned at your expense.
The instrument must not be shipped without the transport lock installed. Previous to that,
contact our customer service.
The Declaration of Decontamination as well as the contact information are provided in
the Annex.
11.2 Disposal
The PC includes a battery containing contaminants. That must not be disposed of with
the domestic waste.
After the life has expired, disposal may only be executed through the customer service
of Hitachi High-Tech Analytical Science or a suitable collection point.
The operating company is obliged to dispose of the instrument after the completion of
its use at his/her own expense according to the legal requirements and to exempt us
from the take-back obligation and related claims of third parties.
Disassemble the instrument for disposal into the individual material groups:
• plastics
• non-ferrous metals (e.g. copper scrap)
• aluminium
• electronic scrap
• steel
Dispose of the materials according to national legislation!
