Low Emission

The PCXCV-Gx conforms to the guidelines
of the Swedish Standard SS436 14 90 and
NBOSH (Swedish National Council for
Metrology and Testing Display Units - Test
Methods MPR-2 1990:8).

Specifications 3–3

Specifications
3.4 Environment
Flame Retardants
The enclosures do not contain polybrominated diphenylether (PBDE)
as a flame retardant additive; therefore, they do not emit toxic
dibenzofuran and dibenzodixion gases.
Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS)
The PCXCV-Gx is in full compliance with the labeling requirements in
the U.S. Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. It does not contain, nor
is it manufactured with, a Class 1 ODS, as defined in Title VI Section
611 of this act.
