Safety Inspection
If there is any indication that safe
operation of the moisture analyzer can
no longer be guaranteed:
§ Isolate from supply voltage:
Unplug power cord.
> Lock the equipment in a secure place
Safe operation of the moisture analyzer
can no longer be guaranteed if:
– There is visible damage to the moisture
analyzer or power cord
– The moisture analyzer no longer
functions properly
– The moisture analyzer has been
stored for a relatively long period under
unfavorable conditions
–
The moisture analyzer has been subjected
to rough handling during shipment
In this case notify your nearest
Sartorius Service Center.
Maintenance and repair work may be
carried out only by service technicians
– who have access to the required
maintenance manuals
– who have attended appropriate
service training courses
We recommend that the moisture
analyzer be inspected by a qualified
Sartorius service technician to check
the following specifications:
– Resistance of the protective grounding
conductor < 0.2 Ohm as measured with
a commercially available multimeter
– Insulation resistance > 2 MOhm as
measured with a constant voltage of at
least 500 volts at a 500 kOhm load
The duration and number of measure-
ments should be determined by
a qualified Sartorius service technician
based on the particular ambient
and operating conditions at the place
of use (once a year as a minimum).

Recycling
Information and Instructions on
Disposal and Repairs
Packaging that is no longer required must
be disposed of at the local waste disposal
facility. The packaging is made of environ-
mentally friendly materials that can be
used as secondary raw materials.
The equipment, including accessories and
batteries, does not belong in your regular
household waste. The European legislation
requires that electrical and electronic
equipment be collected and disposed of
separately from other communal waste
with the aim of recycling it.
In Germany and many other countries,
Sartorius takes care of the return and
legally compliant disposal of its electrical
and electronic equipment on its own.
These products may not be placed with the
household waste or brought to collection
centers run by local public disposal
operations – not even by small commercial
operators.
For disposal in Germany and in the
other member nations of the European
Economic Area (EEA), please contact
our Service technicians on location or our
Service Center in Goettingen, Germany:
Sartorius
Service Center
Weender Landstrasse 94–108
37075 Goettingen, Germany
In countries that are not members
of the European Economic Area (EEA) or
where no Sartorius subsidiaries or dealer-
ships are located, please contact your
local authorities or a commercial disposal
operator.
Prior to disposal and/or scrapping
of the equipment, any batteries should
be removed and disposed of in local
collection boxes.
Sartorius will not take back equipment
contaminated with hazardous materials
(ABC contamination) – either for repair or
disposal. Please refer to the accompanying
leaflet/manual or visit our Internet website
(www.sartorius.com) for comprehensive
information that includes our service
addresses to contact if you plan to send
your equipment in for repairs or proper
disposal.
