Environmental requirements

Flame retardants

Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.

The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.

Cadmium**

Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.

Mercury**

Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit. There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as today there is no commercially available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a Mercury free alternative is available.

CFCs (freons)

The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.

Lead**

Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.

TCO'03-Ecological requirements for personal computers (TCO'03 applied model only)

Congratulations!

The display you have just purchased carries the TCO'03 Displays label. This means that your display is designed, manufactured and tested according to some of the strictest quality and environmental requirements in the world. This makes for a high performance product, designed with the user in focus that also minimizes the impact on our natural environment.

Some of the features of the TCO'03 Display requirements:

Ergonomics

Good visual ergonomics and image quality in order to improve the working environment for the user and to reduce sight and strain problems. Important parameters are luminance, contrast, resolution, reflectance, colour rendition and image stability.

LS15MJCKS/VNT, LS15MJCKS/XSV, MJ17ASTS/VNT, MJ15ASKS/VNT specifications

Samsung has established a strong presence in the home appliance market with its innovative products, including the Samsung MJ15ASKS/VNT, MJ17ASTS/VNT, LS15MJCKS/XSV, and LS15MJCKS/VNT models. These appliances are designed to cater to various consumer needs, focusing on functionality, efficiency, and style.

The Samsung MJ15ASKS/VNT and MJ17ASTS/VNT are microwave ovens that offer advanced cooking technology and user-friendly features. One of the standout characteristics is the Smart Sensor cooking technology, which automatically adjusts cooking times and power levels based on the food's moisture content. This ensures that meals are cooked to perfection every time. Additionally, both models boast a ceramic enamel interior, making them easy to clean and resistant to scratches, ensuring longevity and durability.

Furthermore, the eco mode feature significantly reduces energy consumption, making these machines environmentally friendly and cost-effective in the long run. The sleek design, equipped with a glass touch control panel, enhances the aesthetic appeal of modern kitchens, while the multi-stage cooking feature adds convenience by allowing users to program different cooking settings for one dish.

On the other side, the LS15MJCKS/XSV and LS15MJCKS/VNT models represent Samsung's commitment to air conditioning technology. These split system air conditioners are designed for efficiency and comfort, featuring inverter technology that allows for precise temperature control and reduced energy consumption. The Smart Wi-Fi feature enables users to control their air conditioning units remotely via a mobile app, providing added convenience.

Both LS models are designed with a focus on quiet operation, ensuring that noise disturbance is minimized while providing optimal cooling performance. The air conditioners are equipped with air purification technology, which filters airborne particles, ensuring that indoor air quality is maintained at high standards.

In summary, Samsung's MJ15ASKS/VNT, MJ17ASTS/VNT, LS15MJCKS/XSV, and LS15MJCKS/VNT models combine cutting-edge technology with user-centric design. Whether enhancing kitchen efficiency with their microwave features or improving home comfort through advanced air conditioning systems, these models exemplify Samsung's commitment to delivering high-quality, reliable home appliances tailored to the needs of modern consumers.
