Dispose of disassembled device components as follows:
• Metal components in the scrap metal
• Electronic components in the electrical waste
• Plastic parts in the recycling center
• Sort and dispose of the other components depending on the
material type.

8.2 Limitations
8.2.1 Definition Temperature Measurement
Under specific conditions, the maximum permissible ambient
temperature must be limited. Therefore one also refers for
encoders to a maximum operating temperature, which is
composed of several components.
An encoder is a mechatronic system that heats up differently
according to the variant. For critical applications close to the
maximum values, we recommend measuring the actual tem-
perature of the encoder in operation on the flange.
