Product Overview
The main function of the Altivar 21 range is control and rotation speed variation of an
asynchronous electric motor, mainly for HVAC applications.
This range comprises products from 0.75 to 75 kW, operating at voltages from 200 and 480 V,
single or three-phase.
The representative product used for carrying out assessment is the complete Altivar 21 of
rating 22 kW 400 V (ref ATV21HD22N4).
It is representative of the entire ATV21 22 to 75 kW IP20 range. Other products of the range
are produced using the same technology and on the same production process.
Environmental assessment was carried out conforming to standard ISO 14040
"Environmental management: life cycle assessment, principle and framework".
This assessment takes account of product life cycle stages.
Constituent materials
Weight of products in the range is from 15 000 g to 55000 g. It is 16456 g
excluding packaging for the Altivar 21 - 22 kW 400 V assessed.
Constituent materials are broken down as follows:
Substance assessment
Manufacturing
Distribution
Products of this range are designed in conformity with the requirements
of the RoHS directive (European Directive 2002/95/EC of 27 January
2003) and do not contain, or in the authorised proportions, lead, mercury,
cadmium, chromium hexavalent, ame retardant (polybromobiphenyles
PBB, polybromodiphenylthers PBDE) as mentioned in the Directive.
This range is manufactured on a Schneider Electric production site
operating to an ISO 14001 certied environmental management system.
Constant process improvement enables reduction by an average 5 % of
annual energy consumption of the site.
Complete waste sorting enables achievement of a recovery rate of 99 %.
Packaging has been designed with a view to reducing its weight and
volume, respecting the packaging directive of the European Union 94/62/CE.
The weight of packaging of the 8329 g, consisting of cardboard, wood
and steel (recyclable materials).
Product distribution ows are optimised by location of local distribution
centres in close proximity to market areas.
