Our System 85 (R2V2) is finally out of service, replaced with a Definity. I would like to get rid of the Sys85 (sell it?) but I have an environmental issue. According the sticker placed on it by our environmental officer when it was first bought in 1985, it apparently contains Mercury. By now though, no-one knows what part of the switch contains Mercury. Anyone out there familiar enough with this relic to know why they posted it as containing Mercury and where it might be located?
Thanks.

On some of the Circuit packs there are mercury relays. You can tell what packs have them by taking out the circuit pack and if you see little Metal Box like things 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch with Arrows orienting Up when the pack is in the correct direction - That's Them

Thanks for the quick info - I had hoped in was something as innocuous as switches. I know exactly which ones you mean. Thanks!
