Environmental Features
This product has been designed with several features intended to reduce
environmental impact in manufacturing, use, and end-of-life disposition.
Ozone Depleting
Substances (ODS) This product and its shipping package do not contain nor are
they manufactured with Class I ODS, as defined in Title VI,
section 611 of the clean air act amendments of 1990.
Use of asbestos Digital Equipment Corporation does not use asbestos in any
form in the manufacturing of its products.
Recycled paper in
documentation User documentation is printed on paper with a post-consumer
recycled content of between 10 and 60%.
Use of PVC in
enclosure pieces Polyvinylchloride (PVC) is not used in plastic enclosure pieces.
Design for
disassembly/re-
cycling This product has been designed for ease of disassembly so
that materials can be easily separated for recycling at the end
of the product's useful life. One type of fastener is generally
used to minimize tools required to disassemble. Plastic
components have been marked with standard identification
symbols to facilitate separation for recycling. Snap fit fastening
techniques have been used, where possible, to reduce
disassembly effort. Fastening of dissimilar materials can be
disconnected, allowing materials to be separated for recycling.
Environmental
packaging features The outer container on this product is made from unbleached,
natural Kraft corrugated fiberboard which can be readily
recycled in most areas. Protective cushioning pieces are made
from expandable polypropylene which is more efficient than
other foams and requires less material to provide equivalent
protection, thereby reducing packaging waste. The cushioning
pieces are marked with the Society of the Plastics Industry
(SPI) material identification symbol for polypropylene to
facilitate recycling.
