Q & AWhat is ROHS certification?
EU ROHS certification - Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive.
EU ROHS certification (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) has been scheduled for
July 1, 2006 implementation, since that date, all electrical and electronic equipment sold in Europe
of restricted hazardous substances must comply with the stringent requirements of Directive .
The Directive stipulates that the European sales of electrical and electronic products, lead Pb,
cadmium Cd, mercury Hg, hexavalent chromium Cr6 +, PBBs PBBs, PBDEs PBDEs six hazardous
substances be restricted after more harmful substances will also be restrictions.
RoHS certification covers the range of AC1000V, DC1500V following directories listed by the electronic
and electrical products:
1. A large household appliances: refrigerators, washing machines, microwave ovens,
air conditioners and other.
2. Small household appliances: vacuum cleaner, iron, hair dryer, oven, watches, etc.
3. IT and telecommunications equipment: computers, fax machines, telephones, cell phones, etc.
4. Civilian devices: radios, televisions, video recorders, musical instruments, etc.
5. Lighting: In addition to household fluorescent lighting outside, lighting control devices.
6. Power tools: drills, lathes, welding, spray, etc. (to be installed except for large-scale industrial tools).
7. Toys / entertainment, sports equipment: electric cars, video game.
8. Medical devices: radiation therapy, ECG testing, analysis equipment, etc.
9. The monitoring / control devices: smoke detectors, incubators, plant monitoring and control machines.
Which, RoHS Directive currently applicable 8,9 two.
RoHS certification (2002/95/EC) on the maximum allowable concentration of harmful substances
(threshold): Cd threshold of 100ppm; Pb, Hg, Cr6 +, PBB, PBDE threshold 1000ppm; their testing
method also requires countries to coordinate.
