Product Environmental Profile Power cords PEP ecopassport SCHN-2011-547-V0
Product Environmental Profile - PEP Product overview The main purpose of the power cords is to convey electrical power from a power source to an electronic device. This range consists of: Power cords with various input/output connectors, different lengths (0.25M to 3.7M) and for use at different voltages (100V, 120V, 230V). The representative product used for the analysis is the AP9870 Power Cord, C13 to C14, 2.5m.
Product Environmental Profile - PEP End of life At end of life, the products in the Power cords range have been optimized to decrease the amount of waste and allow recovery of the product components and materials. External cables should be separated from the stream of waste so as to optimize end-of-life treatment by special treatments. The recyclability potential of the products has been evaluated using the “ECO’DEEE recyclability and recoverability calculation method” (version V1, 20 Sep.
Product Environmental Profile - PEP Glossary Raw Material Depletion (RMD) This indicator quantifies the consumption of raw materials during the life cycle of the product. It is expressed as the fraction of natural resources that disappear each year, with respect to all the annual reserves of the material. Energy Depletion (ED) This indicator gives the quantity of energy consumed, whether it be from fossil, hydroelectric, nuclear or other sources.
