Materials Declarations
EricssonTelevision products are designed and manufactured in keeping with good environmental practise. Our component and
materials selection policy prohibits the use of a range of potentially hazardous materials. In addition, we comply with relevant
environmental legislation.
For the European Union
For product sold into the EU after 1st July 2006, we comply with the EU RoHS Directive. We also comply with the WEEE Directive.
For China
For product sold into China after 1st March 2007, we comply with the “Administrative Measure on the Control of Pollution by
Electronic Information Products”. In the first stage of this legislation, content of six hazardous materials has to be declared together
with a statement of the “Environmentally Friendly Use Period (EFUP)”: the time the product can be used in normal service life
without leaking the hazardous materials. EricssonTelevision expects the normal use environment to be in an equipment room at
controlled temperatures (around 22°C) with moderate humidity (around 60%) and clean air, near sea level, not subject to vibration
or shock.
Where EricssonTelevision product contains potentially hazardous materials, this is indicated on the product by the appropriate
symbol containing the EFUP. For EricssonTelevision products, the hazardous material content is limited to lead (Pb) in some solders.
This is extremely stable in normal use and the EFUP is taken as 50 years, by comparison with the EFUP given for Digital
Exchange/Switching Platform in equipment in Appendix A of “General Rule of Environment-Friendly Use Period of Electronic
Information Products”. This is indicated by the product marking:
It is assumed that while the product is in normal use, any batteries associated with real-time clocks or battery-backed RAM will be
replaced at the regular intervals.
The EFUP relates only to the environmental impact of the product in normal use, it does not imply that the product will continue to
be supported for 50 years.
