B.12.7 Materials Declarations
TANDBERG Television 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 1
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. TANDBERG Television 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 TANDBERG Television product contains potentially hazardous materials, this is
indicated on the product by the appropriate symbol containing the EFUP. For TANDBERG
Television 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:
50
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.
