Product Environmental Profile – PEP
ENVPEP1511013_V1 / PEP Ecopassport SCHN-2015-174 Published by: Schneider Electric 11-2015
Distribution
The weight and volume of the packaging have been optimized, based on the European Union's packaging
directive.
The XMLP001GD21F packaging weight is 15 g. It consists of cardboard and paper.
Use
The products of the XMLP Low pressure range do not generate environmental pollution (noise, emissions)
requiring special precautionary measures in standard use.
The electrical power consumption depends on the conditions under which the product is implemented and used.
The electrical power consumed by XMLP001GD21F is between 0.096 W (P=0 bar and I=4mA) and 0.48 W (P=1
bar and I=20 mA). For the purpose of the present modelling, it is considered to be 0.29 W (corresponding to a
pressure in the middle of the range) in active mode.
The product range does not require special maintenance operations.
End of life
At end of life, the products in the XMLP Low pressure range have been optimized to decrease the amount of waste
and allow recovery of the product components and materials.
This product range doesn’t need any special end-of-life treatment. According to countries’ practices this product
can enter the usual end-of-life treatment process.
The recyclability potential of the products has been evaluated using the “ECO DEEE recyclability and recoverability
calculation method” (version V1, 20 Sep. 2008 presented to the French Agency for Environment and Energy
Management: ADEME).
According to this method, the potential recyclability ratio without packaging is: 74%.
As described in the recyclability calculation method this ratio includes only metals and plastics which have proven
industrial recycling processes.
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 XMLP001GD21F.
- 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
product”. Assumed service lifetime is 10 years and use scenario is 0.29 W consumed electrical power
with a service uptime percentage is 100%.
- The geographical representative area for the assessment is Europe and the electrical power model
used for calculation is European model.
- End of life impacts are based on a worst case transport distance to the recycling plant (1,000km).
