Vicon is a global citizen for building the digital
infrastructure. We are committed to providing green
products and services, which are compliant with
European Union RoHS (Restriction on Use of Hazardous Substance in
Electronic Equipment) directive 2011/65/EU, to be your trusted green
partner and to protect our environment.
RoHS restricts the use of Lead (Pb) < 0.1% or 1,000ppm, Mercury (Hg) < 0.1%
or 1,000ppm, Cadmium (Cd) < 0.01% or 100ppm, Hexavalent Chromium
(Cr6+) < 0.1% or 1,000ppm, Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) < 0.1% or
1,000ppm, and Polybrominated diphenyl Ethers (PBDE) < 0.1% or 1,000ppm.
In order to meet the RoHS compliant directives, Vicon has established an
engineering and manufacturing task force to implement the introduction
of green products. The task force will ensure that we follow the standard
Vicon development procedure and that all the new RoHS components and
new manufacturing processes maintain the highest industry quality levels
for which Vicon are renowned.
The model selection criteria will be based on market demand. Vendors and
suppliers will ensure that all designed components will be RoHS compliant.
How to recognize Vicon RoHS Products?
For existing products where there are non-RoHS and RoHS versions, the
suffix “(LF)” will be added to the compliant product name.
All new product models launched after January 2013 will be RoHS compliant.
They will use the usual Vicon naming convention.
Ensure you have a stable, clean working environment. Dust and dirt can get
into components and cause a malfunction. Use containers to keep small
components separated.
Adequate lighting and proper tools can prevent you from accidentally
damaging the internal components. Most of the procedures that follow
require only a few simple tools, including the following:
▪ A Philips screwdriver ▪ A flat-tipped screwdriver ▪ A grounding strap ▪ An anti-static pad
Using your fingers can disconnect most of the connections. It is recommended
that you do not use needle-nose pliers to disconnect connections as these
can damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the connectors.
