Life Cycle Assessment of FBSmV RCCB add-on unit

Representative Product

Product Reference FBSMV-63/4/1-S (170157)
Product Category Blocks and Differential Switches

Description of the Product

The Eaton Moeller series xEffect - FBSmV RCCB add-on unit is designed to detect and interrupt residual currents that pose a risk of electric shock or fire. By integrating a FAZ Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) up to 63A, it provides additional protection against short circuits and overloads, ensuring a more comprehensive safety mechanism. This combination enhances the overall reliability and efficiency of the electrical installation process.

Additional Environmental Information

Phase Information
Manufacturing The reference product is assembled at an Eaton plant Czech Republic holding management system certifications according to ISO 14001 standards.
Distribution Eaton is committed to minimizing weight and volume of product and packaging with focus to optimize transport efficiency.
Installation The installation process does not require any energy consumption and there is no waste other than the obsolete product packaging generated during this step.
Use The product requires energy consumption during operation.
End of life The recyclability rate of the overall product is 43.9% if it is properly dismantled prior to shredding. The rate is calculated based on “WEEE recyclability and recoverability calculation method” (version V1, 20 Sep. 2008 presented to the French Agency for Environment and Energy Management: ADEME).

Environmental Impacts: Mandatory

The calculation of the environmental impacts is the result of the Product's Life Cycle Analysis in accordance with ISO 14040/44, covering the entire lifecycle, i.e., "Cradle-to-Grave" including the following life cycle phases: production, distribution, installation, use and end of life.
