Framework / Calculation rules
System approach
Life cycle assessment has been performed on the following life cycle phases: Upstream and
Manufacturing (M), Distribution (D) and End of life (EoL). Please note that the values given above are
only valid within the context specified and cannot be used directly to draw up the environmental
assessment of an installation.
Modelling hypothesis and method:
The preparation and calculation were carried out in accordance with the current standards DIN EN ISO
14040 and DIN EN ISO 14044. Eco database and primary data were used to determine the emission
factors.
Data quality level:
Emission factors from general eco databases as well as emission factors submitted by our suppliers
were used to calculate the product environmental footprint. The quality level of the calculated
environmental indicators indicates how granular the results are for Phoenix Contact. The average level
for the quality level of the product is calculated based on the mass balance and quality level of each
component.

Glossary
Climate Change / Global Warming
(GW)
The global warming of the planet is the result of the increase in the
greenhouse effect due to the sunlight reflected by the earth’s surface
being absorbed by certain gases known as „greenhouse- effect
„gases. The effect is quantified in gram equivalent of CO2.
n/a (not applicable)
n/a means not applicable. If we do not have emission factors for
environmental indicators, process emissions are not quantifiable, or
lifecycle phase excluded from the system boundary the results table
indicates n/a.
n/c (not calculated)
n/c means not calculated. If environmental indicators could not be
calculated, e.g., due to non-existing emission values or missing
information, n/c was used.
Definitions and information on the other environmental indicators can be found on the page of the
European Platform on Life Cycle Assessment: https://eplca.jrc.ec.europa.eu/LCDN/EF_archive.xhtml
