Disposal The drive contains raw materials that should be recycled to preserve energy and natural
resources. The package materials are environmentally compatible and recyclable. All
metal parts can be recycled. The plastic parts can either be recycled or burned under
controlled circumstances, according to local regulations. Most recyclable parts are marked
with recycling marks.
If recycling is not feasible, all parts excluding electrolytic capacitors and printed circuit
boards can be landfilled. The DC capacitors contain electrolyte, which is classified as
hazardous waste within the EU. They must be removed and handled according to local
regulations.
For further information on environmental aspects and more detailed recycling instructions,
please contact your local ABB distributor.
