Guidelines and Environmental Protection

An important characteristic of our products, alongside quality and performance, is environmental friendliness.

(I)Protection of resources with energy-saving functions Our units generally have energy-saving modes.

(II)Device safety

The units meet the requirements of the low voltage directive 73/23/EEC including the amendment 93/68/EEC, certified in accordance with EN 60950, and the directive on electromagnetic compatibility 89/336/EEC including the amendment 93/68/EEC.

(III)Guarantee of electromagnetic compatibility

All data and signal cables must be provided with sufficient shielding. The minimum requirement is a Category 5 shielded cable for 10/100 Ethernet, or Category 5e for Gigabit Ethernet. As described in the operating instructions, all of the housing parts must be installed.

−Requirements for work with monitors

Our units meet the requirements set for work with monitors in accordance with the EU screen directive 90/270/EEC for the purposes of the EU directive 89/391/EEC.

−Lasers

If your system has an optical drive such as a CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD or combined drive, the following applies:

With closed PC housings, the optical drives used correspond to laser class 1 in accordance with IEC 60825-1. These contain light- emitting diodes (LED) which under some circumstances may generate a stronger light beam than laser class 1. A direct glance into this beam, even with protective eyewear, is dangerous and may lead to injury. Therefore, no parts of the optical drive housing are to be removed.
