RoHS Compliance Testing
ARTL has entered for performing ROHS certification and consultation to its clients.
RoHS Compliance Testing has become standard procedure for most manufacturers, sellers, distributors, and recyclers of electrical and electronic components or equipment sold or used in the European Union.
ARTL Team
ARTL has special team scientists & chemists for client Site visit for RoHS Compliance monitoring and testing.
ARTL Instrumentation
ARTL has world class laboratory equipped with LC-MSMS,GC-MSMS & ICP-MSMS.
RoHS Compliant is the abbreviated form of Restriction of Hazardous Substances. Also, it is otherwise known as Directive 2002/95/EC. You may be wondering how the RoHS testing came into being. RoHS testing finds its origin in the European Union. The main purpose of using RoHS is to prevent the use of hazardous materials in the manufacturing of electrical equipment. There are many dangerous materials and substances that go into the production of electronics and related equipment.
RoHS aims to reduce such substances so as to create a safer environment for those handling such products. Dangerous materials cause harm to those exposed to them during manufacturing, especially. It also aims to decrease the pollution caused by such materials in landfills, during recycling, etc. According to the decision, all relevant products available after July 1, in the EU market must go through the RoHS testing.
The Hazardous materials are:
Lead, Cadmium, Mercury, Hexavalent Chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, polybrominated diphenyl ethers, and four different phthalates (DEHP, BBP, BBP, DIBP) PCB, and Dioxan.
RoHS compliance testing is used by all companies that produce EEE appliances, sub-assemblies, cables, components, etc. RoHS also affects those companies which are sellers or distributors of such products. Even those who sell to distributors, integrators, or resellers who make the product available in the European Union Market. The Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive has a global reach now, it not only applies to electronic products circulating in the EU market but also to all the markets worldwide. RoHS also has application in the metal industry for any usage of metal plating, anodizing, chromating, or on any other finishes on EEE machinery, heatsinks, or connectors.
RoHS Compliance Testing has become standard procedure for most manufacturers, sellers, distributors, and recyclers of electrical and electronic components or equipment sold or used in the European Union.
The need for RoHS testing is a result of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive or RoHS Directive, which became effective on July 1, 2006, as mentioned above. The Directive was drawn up in the European Union to protect human health and the environment from hazardous substances, by restricting the use of six hazardous chemicals in electrical and electronic products.
State of art chemistry Lab and Metallurgy Lab at Apex Testing and Research Laboratory equipped with ultra-modern technology and sophisticated instruments like LC-MSMS, ICP-MS MS, GC-MSMS, spectroscopy, etc can determine the level of the following first four substances restricted by RoHS in Meaning of compliance testing.
RoHS Compliance Testing is also known as RoHS Detective Testing. It has become customary for several sellers, manufacturers, recyclers, and distributors of electronic and electrical components or equipment sold or used in the European Union.
REACH is horizontal legislation controlling the risks associated with chemical substances across their life cycle, whereas RoHS is product-specific vertical legislation that focuses on unsafe substances in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE).
RoHS Compliance Significant
RoHS has its roots in the European Union back in 2003. The motive of RoHS is to reduce the setting effect and health impact of electronics. The legislation’s main purpose is to make electronics engineering safer at every stage of an electronic device’s life span.
