TCO'99
TCO99 compliant monitors must be compliant with TCO99 which is more
stringent than MPRII. The purchase of TCO99 compliant monitors contributes
to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further
development of environmentally adapted electronics products.
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established
method-for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics
equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are
used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far
possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of
these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work
(internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity
generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and
climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy.
Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby
consumes a lot of energy.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides
for international and environmental labelling of personal computers. The
labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish
Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen
(The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens Energimyndighet
(The Swedish National Energy Administration).
Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment,
ergonomics, usability, emission of electric and magnetic fields, energy
consumption and electrical and fire safety.
The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of
heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons)
and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared
for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy
which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its
operational policy.

PV720A User’s Manual
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display,
after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a
lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the
computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in
respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual
ergonomics and good usability. Below you will find a brief summary of the
environmental requirements met by this product. The complete environmental
criteria document may be ordered from:

Environmental requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings
and housings. There 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.

PV720A User’s Manual
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.
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.
*Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living
organisms.
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
