Purge / clean dismounted instruments before returning them in order to protect our employees
and the environment from any hazard caused by adherent remaining media.
Service of instruments can only take place safely when a Product Return Form has been
submitted and fully filled-in. This Return Form contains information on all materials with which
the instrument has come into contact, either through installation, test purposes, or cleaning.
You can find the Product Return Form on our internet site (www.wika.de / www.wika.com).

10. Storage, disposal

When storing or disposing of the pressure transmitter, take precautions with
!
regard to remaining media in removed pressure transmitters. We recom-
mend cleaning the transmitter properly and carefully. Remaining media in
Warning
