ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
7.1
RoHS
The TQMa8XxS is manufactured RoHS compliant. All components, assemblies and soldering processes are RoHS compliant.
7.2
WEEE
®
The final distributor is responsible for compliance with the WEEE
®
regulation.
Within the scope of the technical possibilities, the TQMa8XxS was designed to be recyclable and easy to repair.
7.3
REACH
®
The EU-chemical regulation 1907/2006 (REACH
®
regulation) stands for registration, evaluation, certification and restriction of
substances SVHC (Substances of very high concern, e.g., carcinogen, mutagen and/or persistent, bio accumulative and toxic).
Within the scope of this juridical liability, TQ-Systems GmbH meets the information duty within the supply chain with regard to
the SVHC substances, insofar as suppliers inform TQ-Systems GmbH accordingly.
7.4
EuP
The Eco Design Directive, also Energy using Products (EuP), is applicable to products for the end user with an annual quantity
>200,000. The TQMa8XxS must therefore always be seen in conjunction with the complete device. The available standby and
sleep modes of the components on the TQMa8XxS enable compliance with EuP requirements for the TQMa8XxS.
7.5
Battery
No batteries are assembled on the TQMa8XxS.
7.6
Packaging
The TQMa8XxS is delivered in reusable packaging.
7.7
Other entries
By environmentally friendly processes, production equipment and products, we contribute to the protection of our
environment. To be able to reuse the TQMa8XxS, it is produced in such a way (a modular construction) that it can be easily
repaired and disassembled. The energy consumption of the TQMa8XxS is minimised by suitable measures.
Because currently there is still no technical equivalent alternative for printed circuit boards with bromine-containing flame
protection (FR-4 material), such printed circuit boards are still used.
No use of PCB containing capacitors and transformers (polychlorinated biphenyls).
