Environmental Features
This product has been designed with several features intended to reduce
environmental impact in manufacturing, use, and end-of-life disposition.
Ozone Depleting Substances
(ODS)
This product and its shipping package do not contain, nor are
they manufactured with, Class I ODS, as defined in Title VI,
section 611 of the clean air act amendments of 1990.
Use of asbestos Digital Equipment Corporation does not use asbestos in any
form in the manufacturing of its products.
Recycled paper in
documentation
User documentation is printed on paper with a post-consumer
recycled content of between 10 and 60%.
Use of PVC in enclosure pieces Polyvinylchloride (PVC) is not used in plastic enclosure pieces.
Design for disassembly/
recycling
This product has been designed for ease of disassembly, so
materials can be easily separated for recycling at the end of the
product's useful life. One type of fastener is generally used to
minimize tools required to disassemble. Plastic components
have been marked with standard identification symbols to
facilitate separation for recycling. Snap fit fastening techniques
have been used, where possible, to reduce disassembly effort.
Fastening of dissimilar materials can be disconnected, allowing
materials to be separated for recycling.
Environmental packaging
features
The outer container on this product is made from unbleached,
natural corrugated fiberboard which can be readily recycled in
most areas. Protective cushioning pieces are made from
expandable polypropylene which is more efficient than other
foams and requires less material to provide equivalent
protection, thereby reducing packaging waste. The cushioning
pieces are marked with the Society of the Plastics Industry (SPI)
material identification symbol for polypropylene to facilitate
recycling.
