angular-highcharts conflicts with legacy application's highcharts lib

Angular 2+ is used for new part of Spring MVC application where Highcharts is used. Later, highcharts charting (angular-highcharts) is added to new components written in angular 2+ technology. The same Highcharts 6 version is used at both sides.
At the time angular charting component is initialized Highcharts is already loaded in web page and following Uncaught Error: Highcharts error #16: www.highcharts.com/errors/16 is thrown.

Highcharts is not reloaded by angular component and H.error(code, true) is executed. What is the best way to resolve this conflict?
Should additional Highcharts_X global variable for legacy web application be created? I don't prefer this approach because it is productively used by Higcharts and then it should be changed in the source code at many places.(?)

Is it possible to tell angular-higcharts that the library is already loaded and to use that one?
Or to let it be reloaded without breaking JS with the error?

You can use Global defined Highcharts instead of load Highcharts twice. For example:

//import * as Highcharts from 'highcharts/highstock';
declare var Highcharts: any;

You must remove loading module string and declare any Variable for build with no problems.
