SAFETY REQUIREMENTS AND PROTECTIVE REGULATIONS
6.1
EMC
The MB-M10-1 was developed according to the requirements of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Depending on the target
system, anti-interference measures may still be necessary to guarantee the adherence to the limits for the overall system. (Incl.
housing)
6.2
ESD
In order to avoid interspersion on the signal path from the input to the protection circuit in the system, the protection against
electrostatic discharge should be arranged directly at the inputs of a system. Most external interfaces are protected using ESD
protection diodes. Measurements for ESD protection have to be done with the electronic parts mounted in a housing. Since TQ-
Systems GmbH does not offer a housing for the MB-M10-1 so far, no special preventive measures were done up to now.
6.3
Operational Safety and Personal Security
Due to the occurring voltages (36 V), tests with respect to the operational and personal safety haven’t been carried out.
6.4
Reliability and Service Life
6.4.1
RoHS Compliance
The MB-M10-1 is manufactured RoHS compliant.
•
All components and assemblies used are RoHS compliant
•
RoHS compliant soldering processes are used
6.4.2
WEEE Regulation
The company placing the product on the market is responsible for the observance of the WEEE regulation.
To be able to reuse the product, it is produced in such a way (a modular construction) that it can be easily repaired and
disassembled.
6.5
Other Entries
By environmentally friendly processes, production equipment and products, we contribute to the protection of our
environment.
The energy consumption of this subassembly is minimised by suitable measures.
Printed PC-boards are delivered in reusable packaging.
Modules and devices are delivered in an outer packaging of paper, cardboard or other recyclable material.
Due to the fact that at the moment 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).
These points are an essential part of the following laws:
•
The law to encourage the circular flow economy and assurance of the environmentally
acceptable removal of waste as at 27.9.94
(source of information: BGBl I 1994, 2705)
•
Regulation with respect to the utilization and proof of removal as at 1.9.96
(source of information: BGBl I 1996, 1382, (1997, 2860)
•
Regulation with respect to the avoidance and utilization of packaging waste as at 21.8.98
(source of information: BGBl I 1998, 2379)
•
Regulation with respect to the European Waste Directory as at 1.12.01
(source of information: BGBl I 2001, 3379)
This information is to be seen as notes. Tests or certifications were not carried out in this respect.
