Introduction

Health and Safety

Equalize the pressure in the CRT glass body in the very beginning to prevent explosion.

Wear protective equipment to smash the magnetic deflector with a hammer as flying splints can injure personnel.

CRTs must be handled carefully also after pressure equalizing to ensure that no substances of concern are released. CRT glass bodies should be further processed only in industrial channels with adequate facilities.

Before starting to separate funnel and panel glass, make sure the CRT is not under pressure anymore. Place the CRT firmly in a clamp or a similar device.
First, remove sticker and other adhesive residues from the tube with a putty knife.

Step 2

The glasses are then separated along the frit by means of a hot wire or laser-cutter.
If possible, avoid dust formation. Use a fume hood to minimize worker exposition.
