[Guide] Scrap-in-Field Procedure for Standup 1.0 & 0.75

  • Updated
All chillers must be scrapped with a recycler who is EPA-certified to properly extract or reclaim the R134A refrigerant. The metal and rest of the machine shell can often be handled by the same company for scrap & recycling.

Please refer to the US EPA-provided list of EPA-Certified Refrigerant Reclaimers to locate a suitable provider.

Overview

All return or destroy requests for Standup 1.0 and 0.75 must first be sent to Support@bevi.co, with machine serial numbers. Partners will then have the following options to proceed (for Standup 1.0 or 0.75 machine types only):

  • Pay a flat fee for the pickup and return of the machine(s) to Bevi.
  • Scrap the machine(s) in the field, and self-certify the proper disposal.

This article provides guidance for completing the scrap-in-field option.

Instructions

Task 1: Scrapping the Chiller

  1. Ensure each machine serial number has been provided to Bevi Support (support@bevi.co) and that you have proper confirmation to proceed.
  2. Verify the chiller and machine have been properly decommissioned first.
  3. Remove the chiller from the Bevi machine.
  4. The chiller is now ready to be scrapped with an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer.

Task 2: Scrapping the Machine Shell

  1. Once chiller is removed, remove or cover external branding.
    • Use spray paint to cover all "Bevi" branding on external surfaces of the unit, or;
    • Use a razor blade to cut around all "Bevi" branding and remove the cut portions from the outside of the unit.

  1. The machine shell is now ready for proper disposal by scrap or recycling facility.

Task 3: Self-Certification & Verification
