Disposal
General
The compressor must be dismantled and stripped
down by specialised personnel. The applicable lo-
cal safety and environmental protection regula-
tions must be adhered to when doing this.
When disposing of substances harmful to health,
the instructions of the corresponding safety data
sheets must be observed.
Packaging material, cleaning agents and used or
residual lubricants must be delivered to a recycling
centre in accordance with the regulations valid in
the place of use.
WEEE-Directive
In accordance with the WEEE directive (2002/96/
EC), Gardner Denver undertakes to support the
recovery and reuse of electrical and electronic de-
vices. Contact Gardner Denver for advice.
Disposal
The compressor should be stripped down into its
component parts to permit disposal "according to
material composition", for example into base met-
als, plastics, textile products.
Biodegradable parts should be delivered to normal
industrial waste disposal processes. Plastics, rub-
ber or composite materials must not be disposed
of by burning.
All liquid waste substances such as lubricating
oil or grease, antifreeze, cooling liquids or corro-
sion inhibitors must be disposed of using specially
approved waste disposal or recycling systems.
When doing so, it must be ensured that these sub-
stances do not get into the sewage system.
The following table provides an overview for the
disposal of substances and materials used.
