Transport, Storage and Disposal
The batteries for safety lighting purposes
are supplied together with the battery
cabinets employed.
As regards transport and storage of the
batteries please follow the instructions
issued by the battery manufacturer and
instructions for the battery cabinets.
Attention!
Batteries for emergency
operation must only be
stored for a period not
exceeding three months
without being charged!
If the mains power to the
EURO ZB.1 system is inter-
rupted for more than three
days the battery circuit must
be disconnected (remove
battery fuse). This work must
exclusively be performed by
skilled electrical personnel
(cf. „Testing / Replacing
Fuses“).
The following must be observed when
handling and storing the equipment:
Always handle and store the EURO
ZB.1 system in upright position (see
markings and tilting indicator on the
package).
Observe the technical specifications
under „Technical Data“ governing am-
bient conditions when handling and
storing the system. The storage loca-
tion should be dry and clean. Avoid
the ingress of dust and moisture and
rule out condensate formation due to
moisture during transport and storage
(cf. data specified under „Technical
Data“ with respect to admissible am-
bient temperatures, type of enclosure,
and protection class).
Make sure that all transportation
routes
– are unobstructed (sufficient width
and inside height for all handling
movements),
– allow for sufficient escape space
for persons in case loads tip over
or slide off,
– have adequate carrying capability
(for load, transport packing and
transportation means),
and that the transport routes are sui-
ted for the transportation means used
with respect to gradient and surface
characteristics (eg. non-skid texture,
eveness and other obstacles).
Only use
– handling means (eg. hoisting cars,
forklift trucks etc.),
– lifting tackle (spreader beams,
chains, ropes etc.)
– and securing elements (wedges,
squared timber, guide, bracing
and safety ropes etc.)
that are in proper technical condition
and have adequate carrying capacity.
Observe all instructions regarding
handling conditions, transport positi-
on, attachment points on the packing
and on the unit/control cabinet.
Handling/transportation work must
only be performed by personnel
familiar with applicable methods and
signals and capable of carrying out
this work expertly and in compliance
with safety rules and regulations.
Disposal:
Packing materials are not to
be viewed as garbage but are
valuable substances that have
to be processed by suitable
recycling measures to render
them suited for reuse.
Please follow any national gui-
delines and provisions gover-
ning the disposal of packing
material!
Batteries and electronic com-
ponents contain substances
that cause health and envi-
ronmental risk and damage
if not disposed of expertly.
Therefore, strictly observe the
national guidelines and provisi-
ons governing the disposal of
used batteries and electronic
scrap.
CEAG has obtained the recycling certificate
issued by INTERSEROH GmbH.
Contract number No. 85405 applies. This
ensures that registered packings are utili-
zed in terms of material exploitation with
the requirements of the Packing Ordinance
being fully met. INTERSEROH collecting
stations are obliged to dispose of CEAG
packings free of charge.
