8. Dismounting, return and disposal
WARNING!
Physical injury
When dismounting, there is a danger from aggressive
media and high pressures.
▶
Observe the information in the material safety data
sheet for the corresponding medium.
▶
Remove the thermometer once the system has been
depressurised.
8.2 Return
Strictly observe the following when shipping the instrument:
All instruments delivered to WIKA must be free from any kind of
hazardous substances (acids, bases, solutions, etc.) and must
therefore be cleaned before being returned.
When returning the instrument, use the original packaging or a
suitable transport package.
To avoid damage:
1. Wrap the instrument in an antistatic plastic film.
2. Place the instrument, along with the shock-absorbing material, in
the packaging. Place shock-absorbent material evenly on all sides
of the shipping box.
3. If possible, place a bag, containing a desiccant, inside the
packaging.
4. Label the shipment as transport of a highly sensitive measuring
instrument.
Information on returns can be found under the heading
"Service" on our local website.
8.3 Disposal
Incorrect disposal may endanger the environment.
Dispose of instrument components and packaging materials in an
environmentally compatible way and in accordance with the country-
specific waste disposal regulations.
