13.2.1Guidelines for disposal

DANGER

Death, serious bodily injury and/or property damage may result from improper disposal of direct drives or their components (especially components with permanent magnets).

Direct drives or their components must be disposed of properly.

Main constituents of a proper disposal procedure

Complete demagnetization of the components that contain permanent magnets

Components that are to be recycled should be separated into:

Electronics scrap (e.g. encoder electronics, sensor modules)

Electrical scrap (e.g. laminated cores, motor windings, cables)

Iron to be recycled

Aluminum

Insulating materials

No mixing with solvents, cold cleaning agents, or remains of paint, for example
