| IGEL series UD2, UD3 and UD5 have been accredited the Energy Star 5.2 certificate by the Energy Protection Agency (EPA). Only the top 25% of the market fulfil the criteria, ensuring the energy consumption is in accordance with the Energy Star 5.2 specifications. These specifications include: less than 15 Watt in idle mode and less than 2.7 Watt in Standby/sleep mode and Wake on LAN functionality. Also, power management is included in IGEL firmware for all operating systems. |
| The UL / CUL mark of conformity is the most accepted proof that a product complies with the American and Canadian safety requirements. This represents the most recognised symbol for product safety. Certifications: NWGQ.E308119 , NWGQ7.E308119 |
| IGEL Thin Clients with the TÜV/GS mark of conformity are checked with regard to the safety-related requirements of the low-voltage guideline of RWTÜV. In addition, the GS mark of conformity certifies the high ergonomic requirements of all IGEL Thin Client products |
| The “CE mark of conformity” stands for “Communauté Européenne” (European Community). With it, IGEL technology guarantees that the production of the IGEL Thin Clients complies with the “EMC” (electromagnetic compatibility) guidelines and that the low-voltage guideline applies to equipment safety. Within the framework of EMC testing, the CE mark guarantees that our products don’t generate any electromagnetic interference and are adequately protected against external cross interference. |
| The FCC mark of conformity confirms that an electronic device has been tested by the Federal Communications commission (USA) for compliance with admissible high frequencies. This mark is mandatory for electronic products that are sold in the USA. This affects all devices that are equipped with a microprocessor. Frequencies that are not shielded by means of an appropriate casing or other measures may cause faults in other equipment. There are 2 categories of FCC mark:

Each of the new IGEL Thin Clients in the Smart, Compact, Winestra, and Premium series has already being produced according to the RoHS European Union directive, which goes into effect on July 1, 2006. IGEL is therefore the first thin client manufacturer whose entire product line complies with the EU regulation. On July 2006, the RoHS directive (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances) goes into effect throughout Europe. As of this date, companies have to forgo the use of heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, chromium and brominated flame retardants in the production of electronic or electric equipment. |
| The European Union Regulation REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals) shall improve the protection of human health and the environment from the risks that can be posed by chemicals. IGEL fulfils this regulation by informing customers and partners about materials on the Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) in our products in a concentration above 0.1 % weight by weight (w/w).
