Reported risk: Produkten har en för hög koncentration av kortkedjiga klorparaffiner (SCCP) (uppmätt värde upp till 1,3 viktprocent). SCCP är beständiga i miljön, är giftiga för vattenlevande organismer vid låga koncentrationer och bioackumuleras hos vilda djur och människor, vilket innebär en risk för människors hälsa och miljön. Långvarig exponering genom huden kan orsaka cancer. Dessutom har produktens lödningar en för hög koncentration av bly och kabelns plastmaterial har en för hög koncentration av bis(2-etylhexyl)ftalat (DEHP) och dibutylftalat (DBP) (uppmätta värden upp till 75 %, 2,2 respektive 0,2 viktprocent). Bly utgör en risk för miljön, medan dessa ftalater kan skada hälsan genom att orsaka möjliga skador på fortplantningssystemet. Produkten överensstämmer inte med kraven i direktivet om begränsning av användning av vissa farliga ämnen i elektriska och elektroniska produkter (RoHS-direktivet).

Machine translation. This page was translated automatically from the English record we hold of the issuing authority’s notice. The English original is shown below and the authority’s own notice is linked above — both take precedence over this translation.
Product Name (original English): Myggavvisare
Risk Description (original English): The product has an excessive concentration of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value up to 1.3% by weight). SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. Prolonged exposure to them through the skin may cause cancer. Moreover, the solders of the product have an excessive concentration of lead and the plastic material of the cable has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured values up to 75%, 2.2 and 0.2 by weight, respectively). Lead poses a risk to the environment, while these phthalates pose a risk to human health and the environment.
