Product Environmental Profile – PEP
ENVPEP1410021_V1 / PEP ecopassport SCHN-2014-114 Published by: Schneider Electric 01-2015
Environmental impacts
Life cycle assessment has been performed on the following life cycle phases: Materials and Manufacturing (M),
Distribution (D), Installation (I) Use (U), and End of life (E).
Modeling hypothesis and method:
- The calculation was performed on ABL8BPK24A12.
- Product packaging is included.
- Installation components: no special components included.
- Scenario for the Use phase: this product range is included in the category 2 “Energy consuming
products” (assumed service life is 10 years and use scenario is: 28,80 W for 100% service uptime).
- The geographical representative area for the assessment is worldwide and the electrical power model
used for calculation is the European model.
- End of life impacts are based on a worst case transport distance to the recycling plant (1000km).

Life cycle assessment has been performed with the EIME software (Environmental Impact and Management
Explorer), version 5 and with its database version 2013-02.
The Use phase is the life cycle phase which has the greatest impact on the majority of environmental indicators.
The environmental impacts of other products in this family may be estimated as follow: Raw Material Depletion and
Hazardous Wastes production are proportional to the weight of the product. Other impact categories are
proportional to the energy consumption of the product.
System approach
As the products of the range are designed in accordance with the European RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU, they can
be incorporated without any restriction in an assembly or an installation subject to this Directive.
Please note that the values given above are only valid within the context specified and cannot be used directly to
draw up the environmental assessment of an installation.
