Lenze g500-S Series - Environmental Notes and Recycling

Environmental notes and recycling
Lenze has been cered according to the global environmental management standard (DIN
EN) ISO 14001 for many years. As part of our environmental policy and the associated climate
responsibility, please observe the following informaon on hazardous substances and the
recycling of Lenze products and their packaging:
Lenze products are subject in part to EU Direcve 2011/65/EU on the restricon of the use of
certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic devices (RoHS). This is documented
accordingly in the EU Declaraon of Conformity and with the CE mark.
Lenze products are not subject to EU Direcve 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE), but do somemes contain baeries/rechargeable baeries in accordance
with EU Direcve 2006/66/EC (Baery Direcve). The separate from domesc waste disposal
route is shown by the corresponding labeling with the “crossed-out garbage can”.
Any baeries/rechargeable baeries included are designed for the service life of the product
and do not have to be replaced or otherwise removed by the end user.
Lenze products are usually sold with cardboard or plasc packaging. This packaging corresponds
to EU Direcve 94/62/EC on packaging and packaging waste (Packaging Direcve). The required
waste disposal route is shown by material-specic labeling with the “recycling triangle”.
Example: "21 - Miscellaneous cardboard"
REACH Lenze products are subject to the European Regulaon EC No. 1907/2006 (REACH chemical
regulaon). When used as intended, exposure of substances to humans, animals and the
environment is excluded.
Lenze products are industrial electrical and electronic products and are to be disposed of
professionally. Both the mechanical and electrical components, such as electric motors,
gearboxes, or inverters, contain valuable raw materials that can be recycled and reused.
Proper recycling and thus maintaining the highest possible reusable materials cycle is
therefore important and sensible from an economic and ecological point of view.
•
Always coordinate professional waste disposal with your local waste disposal company.
•
Separate mechanical and electrical components, packaging, hazardous waste (e.g. gearbox
oils), and baeries/rechargeable baeries wherever possible.
•
Dispose of the separated waste in an environmentally friendly and proper way (not with
household waste or municipal bulky waste).
