2 Environmental aspects

2.1
Sustainability was taken into account from the time
product design began and included the pro-
environmental manufacturing process, long life,
operation reliability and disposal of PDCOM.
The choice of materials and the suppliers was made
in accordance with the EU RoHS directive 2011/65/
EU of the European Parliament and of the council of
8 June 2011 on the Restriction of Hazardous
Substances in electrical and electronic equipment
(RoHS Directive).
PDCOM complies with the maximum values for lead
(Pb), mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated
biphenyls (PBB), polybrominated diphenyl ethers
(PBDE) and cadmium.
Pursuant to EU-regulation REACH that came into
force on 1 June 2007, the products are solely non-
chemical. Moreover, the products supplied will not
release any substances under normal and
reasonably foreseeable application circumstances.
2.2
Definitions and regulations concerning hazardous
materials are country-specific and change as
knowledge of materials increases. The materials
used in this product are typical for electric and
electronic devices.
All parts used in this product are recyclable. When
disposing of PDCOM or its parts contact a local
waste handler who is authorized and specialized in
disposing of electronic waste. These handlers can
