3.1

Sustainable development

Sustainability has been taken into account from the beginning of the product design including the pro-

environmental manufacturing process, long life time, operation reliability and disposing of the IED.

Operational reliability and long life time have been assured with extensive testing during the design and

manufacturing processes. Moreover, long life time is supported by maintenance and repair services as

well as by the availability of spare parts.

Design and manufacturing have been done under a certified environmental system. The effectiveness of

the environmental system is constantly evaluated by an external auditing body. We follow environmental

rules and regulations systematically to evaluate their effect on our products and processes.

3.2

Disposing of the IED

Definitions and regulations of hazardous materials are country-specific and change when the 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 an IED or its parts contact a local waste

handler who is authorized and specialized in disposing electronic waste. These handlers can sort the
