The number of components has been significantly reduced over earlier
converter series by the use of highly integrated components and the
modular design of the complete series. Thus, the energy requirement
during production has been reduced.
Special significance was placed on the reduction of the volume, weight
and variety of metal and plastic components.
PC: Front cover
ABS: Fan mesh, PMU support board , logo
PP: Hinges, insulating board, handle, bus retrofit
PA6: Insulating foils, terminal housing, support
LDPE: Capacitor ring
Halogen-containing flame retardants were, for all essential
components, replaced by environmentally-friendly flame retardants.
Environmental compatibility was an important criterium when selecting
the supplied components.
Purchased components are generally supplied in recyclable packaging
materials (board).
Surface finishes and coatings were eliminated with the exception of the
galvanized sheet steel side panels.
ASIC devices and SMD devices were used on the boards.
The production is emission-free.
The unit can be broken down into recyclable mechanical components
as a result of easily releasable screw and snap connections.
The plastic components are to DIN 54840 and have a recycling symbol.
After the service life has expired, the product must be disposed of in
accordance with the applicable national regulations.
