END OF LIFE STATEMENT 

At the end of the EPIRB’s useful life, it is vital that the battery pack be removed 
from the main unit to prevent false alarms. False alarms cause expensive 
disruption to Search and Rescue services and may endanger lives as a 
consequence. It is also necessary that the EPIRB and its battery pack be 
disposed of in a manner that does not present a threat of environmental 
damage. 

8.1 

Disposal 

The Waste Electrical and Electronic 
Equipment (WEEE) Directive aims to 
minimise any adverse impact of electronic 
equipment on the environment, both during 
the product lifetime and when it becomes 
waste. Within the European Union this 
legislation is mandated by Directive 
2012/19/EU, and there is similar legislation in 
most other continents. The directive applies 
to all electronic products such as IT, 
household appliances, portable electronics 
etc., and imposes requirements to collect, 
treat, recover and recycle each product at its end of life. Electronic end-user 
products must also carry a WEEE label (as below) and recovery and recycling 
information has to be provided to the recycler. 

 

This EPIRB product contains traces of lithium in the battery pack. In addition it 
may contain lead and brominated flame retardants (BFRs), both in the housing 
material and circuit boards. 

In keeping with the directive, Orolia Ltd strongly recommends that this EPIRB 
product and its battery pack be disposed of in a sensible and considerate 
manner. For example, do not simply discard the product in the domestic 
waste. Instead take it to a civil recycling facility, or contact Orolia Ltd for 
advice.
