Environmental protection and service
The PRIMEPOWER systems have a long life expectancy, not only because of the excellent
expansion options they offer, but also because of the quality of the products.
As technology continues to develop, however, ever greater volumes of data will need to be
processed. More and more demands are being placed on storage capacity, speed and
computer system design. So when you eventually want to replace your PRIMEPOWER
system with a newer model and dispose of the old device, we can also offer you support in
this area.
Recycling old computer equipment is already a tradition at Fujitsu Siemens: We have been
redeeming and reusing old computer systems for many years now. Even at the design
stage, particular emphasis is placed on the reusability of components and materials.
Your PRIMEPOWER system is manufactured to the greatest possible extent from environ-
mentally friendly materials that can be fully recycled.
Read on through the next sections for a brief look at some of the measures we have intro-
duced in an effort to protect the environment as well as our tips and suggestions for environ-
mentally friendly handling of your system.
Environmentally friendly product design and development
This product has been designed in accordance with the Siemens standard “environmentally
friendly product design and development”.
This means that the designers have taken into account critical factors such as durability,
selection of materials and coding, emissions, packaging, the ease with which the product
can be dismantled and the extent to which it can be recycled.
This saves resources and thus reduces the harm done to the environment.
Production and development of the PRIMEPOWER systems are certified in accordance
with the environment management system DIN ISO 14001.
Note on saving energy
If your device does not have to remain switched on permanently, only switch it on when you
are ready to use it and then switch it off again during long breaks and when you finish your
work.
