Leybold Service
If a pump is returned to Leybold, indicate whether the
pump free of substances damaging to health or whether
it is contaminated.
If it is contaminated also indicate the nature of the
hazard. Leybold must return any pumps without a
“Declaration of Contamination” to the sender’s address.
Disposal of waste oil
Under the amended law relating to waste disposal dated
November 1, 1986 (valid in the Federal Republic of
Germany) the disposal of used oil is subject to new
provisions. According to legislation relating to waste
disposal the so-called principle of causality is applied.
Hence, anyone in possession of used oil is responsible
for its proper disposal.
Used oils coming from vacuum pumps must not be
mixed with other substances.
Used oils from vacuum pumps (Leybold-oils on the basis
of mineral oils) having been affected by normal
contamination due to oxygen from the ambient air,
increases in temperature and mechanical wear, must be
disposed of as used oil in accordance with the
regulations.
Used oils from vacuum pumps that have been
contaminated by other substances must be labelled,
stored and disposed of as special waste with reference
to the kind of contamination.
When disposing of used oil please observe the safety
regulations that are valid in your country.
In many countries proof of were the oil has finally been
left is required by Law and often shipping of such
contaminated waste requires permission by the
authorities.
Waste disposal information is available through:
