A.3 Environmental compatibility
Environmental aspects during development
The use of highly-integrated components has enabled the number of parts to be kept to a
minimum, with energy being used as efficiently as possible during production as a result.
Particular emphasis has been placed on ensuring that the metal and plastic parts have a low
volume and low weight, and that the number of different types is kept to a minimum.
Front parts:
Plastic parts in the device:
Insulation materials:
Rating plate:
Pollutant-free materials have been used for all significant parts. Insulation materials
containing silicone are not used. Materials containing halogens are only present to a slight
extent (cable insulation in the SINAMICS DCM Control Module).
All materials meet ROHS criteria.
Environmental compatibility was a key criterion in selecting supplier parts.
Environmental aspects during production
The packaging material can be recycled and consists mainly of cardboard.
With the exception of the enclosure, no surface coatings have been used.
The production processes do not produce any emissions.
Environmental aspects for disposal
The device features screw-in and snap-in connections that can be easily released in order to
separate it into different mechanical components for recycling purposes.
The printed circuit boards may be used in recycling processes involving energy recovery.
The proportion of components containing hazardous substances is low.
