If the unit is damaged and mercury has leaked, please call our cus-
tomer service department at 1-800-ADC-2670. We will be happy to
send you a complete mercury return kit, part number 985 with in-
structions on the safe transportation of the product. Please note
that the mercury return kit is NOT necessary but is provided as a con-
venience. If you choose not to use an ADC return kit, you will need a
leak-proof, sealable 3 mil plastic bag (for each unit), rubber
bands/twist ties/fasteners, a 200 test corrugated carton, and the ap-
propriate shipping labels. Only the manometer itself and not the in-
flation system (cuff, connectors, bulb and valve), wall brackets, or
mobile base (depending upon the unit) need be returned. Please be
sure to follow the instructions for shipment in the “Packing and Ship-
ping Instructions” section below.
Note:
We can only accept the return of
ADC ’s DIAGNOSTIX
™ mer-
curial instruments for repair services.
PACKING AND SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS
Important Note:
Failure to follow the proper packing and shipping
instructions below for mercurial return kits could result in mercury leak-
age during transit. The shipper will be responsible for all costs associ-
ated with cleaning mercurial spills that were caused by improper
packaging and shipping methods.
You will be sealing each mercury unit in TWO polybags with bubble
wrap in between. Only pack a MAXIMUM of 3 units per return. (As-
sorted styles are acceptable) It is very important to note that the De-
partment of Transportation (HAZMAT) requirements will require
special caution labels for any boxes that contain 1 pound or more of
mercury. Three mercurial units are below this 1 pound requirement,
and do not require any additional labeling.
1. Remove the inflation system, basket(s), rod, and base from all
mercurial units before packing and dispose of in accordance with
local regulations. ADC will ONLY accept the main mercurial units
for return.
