ABB List of Prohibited and Restricted Substances, ver. 1.2
This document is valid as of 2013-09-09
The objective with ABB List of Prohibited and
Restricted Substances is to achieve compliance with
legislation. This document provides information of
“Prohibited substances” – substances which must no
longer be used; “Restricted substances” substances which use should be limited within ABB.
The scope for this list is ABB’s suppliers, R&D,
production processes, products, packaging materials,
service activities and construction sites.
Principles
The purpose of this list is to comply with legalisation to
avoid chemicals, materials and substances that: may
represent hazards to the environment or the health of
workers, customers, consumers and other stakeholders or
could negatively influence end-of-life properties, or might
cause other concerns.
This document contains substances relevant to ABB, the
document is reviewed and updated annually, legislation
changed after this publication date shall always be
considered.
Prohibited substances are not to be used within ABB nor
in products manufactured or sold by ABB.
Restricted substances are in general allowed in
concentrations below 0.1% w/w, exceptions to this rule
are listed below. Active work should be performed to find
less hazardous alternatives which could be introduced as
soon as it is technically and economically possible.
The concentration of a chemical, substance or material
shall be calculated for the product, or assembled products
also for all subcomponents that might be sold as spare
parts.
How to read this list
Substance name
Name of chemical elements, chemical compounds, substance or materials may be commercial or chemical.
CAS-no.
CAS Registry Numbers are unique numerical identifiers assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service to every chemical
described in the open scientific literature (currently including those described from at least 1957 through the present) and
including elements, isotopes, organic and inorganic compounds, ions, organometallics, metals, non-structural materials.
Risk
The reason for a chemical, substance or material to be on this list, is its inherent properties that makes it hazardous for
humans or for the environment.
ABB classification
Classification of chemical if P – Prohibited or R-Restricted regarding limitation of use. Note that a chemical may be Restricted
in certain applications and Prohibited in others.
Threshold value
If nothing else stated a threshold value of 0.1% w/w (weight/weight) applies. Sunset date corresponds to a date after which
use of that substance in the EU must stop i.e. the chemical is prohibited.
For suppliers: If products brought in to ABB include any of these substances, regardless of concentration, this shall be
declared to ABB, following the procedure described in “Guide for Suppliers to the ABB List of Prohibited and Restricted
Substance”.
Legislation
Reference to legislation gives further information on the substance, regulated applications, exceptions and threshold values.
Full list of references are found after the table.
Example of applications
Example of applications where a specific chemical, substance or material is used.
Comments
Additional comments regarding the substance, i.e. if covered by Reach, RoHS or IEC list.
