7.1
RoHS
The TQMa8MxML 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 TQMa8MxML 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 Energy using Products (EuP) is applicable for end user products with an annual quantity of >200,000. Thus the TQMa8MxML
always has to be considered in combination with the complete system. The compliance regarding EuP directive is basically
possible for the TQMa8MxML on account of available Standby or Sleep-Modes of the components on the TQMa8MxML.
7.5
Battery
No batteries are assembled on the TQMa8MxML.
7.6
Packaging
The TQMa8MxML 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 TQMa8MxML, it is produced in such a way (a modular construction) that it can be easily
repaired and disassembled. The energy consumption of this subassembly is minimised by suitable measures.
Since there is currently no technically equivalent alternative for PCBs with bromine-containing flame retardants (FR-4 material),
such PCBs continue to be used. Components containing polychlorinated biphenyls are not used.
