Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. The relevant TCO’99 requirement states
that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the
electrical or electronics components associated with the labeled unit. There is however one exception.
Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as there today is
no commercially available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a mercury free
alternative is available.
CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the
manufacture and assembly of the product or in its packaging. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for
washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the
stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light. This restriction assures that
further damage to the ozone layer form this type of equipment will be eliminated.
Lead**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. The relevant TCO’99
requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.
