Chapter 10 Maintenance
• In Case Of Fire
This product is highly protected against arcing faults and therefore it is very
unlikely it would be the cause of a fire. In addition, the materials used are self-
extinguishing (i.e. they will not burn without a sustained external flame). If,
however, the product is subjected to a sustained fire from some other source,
some of the polymer materials will produce toxic gases. As with any fire,
individuals involved in extinguishing the fire or anyone in close proximity
should wear a self-contained breathing apparatus to protect against any
inhalation of toxic gases.
Disposal
When disposing of the product, it should be disassembled and separated into
groups of recyclable material as much as possible (i.e. steel, copper, plastic, wire,
etc.). These materials should then be sent to local recycling facilities. In addition,
all disposal precautions mentioned above must also be taken for those particular
materials.
