Which products need ROHS test certification? Do electronic devices need ROHS certification?

Date：2022-08-30 16:26:07Views：1039

The laws, regulations and law enforcement established by various countries for the safety and environmental protection characteristics of electronic and electrical products have become increasingly strict. At the same time, some emerging markets have also moved closer to the European and American markets in terms of corresponding legislation. As the first step of environmental protection in the electronic and electrical industry, ROHS has become the basic entry threshold for electronic and electrical products to enter the global market. ROHS test is required in the EU market. RoHS aims to reduce such substances in order to create a safer environment for people handling such products. The main purpose of using RoHS is to prevent the use of harmful substances in the manufacture of electrical equipment.

RoHS now affects the entire electronics industry. Any enterprise that puts electronic products, sub assemblies or components on the EU market must comply with these rohs3 requirements, except for medical / therapeutic equipment (including in vitro medical / therapeutic equipment) and monitoring instruments (including industrial monitoring and control instruments). New products manufactured in trade unions and all products and components imported from third countries must comply with the applicable trade union coordination legislation. Manufacturers of electronic products will be required to keep records to prove compliance and to keep a declaration of EU compliance for at least 10 years after EEE is put on the market.

ROHS certification (10 harmful)

RoHS is aimed at all electrical and electronic products that may contain the above six harmful substances in production and raw materials, mainly including: white appliances, such as refrigerators, washing machines, microwave ovens, air conditioners, vacuum cleaners, water heaters, etc.; black appliances, such as audio and video products, DVDs, CDs, TV receivers, it products, digital products, communication products, etc; Electric tools, electric and electronic toys, electrical equipment.

1. Examples of lead (PB): solder, glass, PVC agent

2. (Hg) (mercury) examples of using this: temperature controller, sensor, switch and relay, bulb

3. Examples of cadmium (CD): switches, springs, connectors, housings and PCBs, contacts, batteries

4. Examples of hexavalent chromium (Cr 6 +) using this: metal anti-corrosion coating

5. Examples of polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs): flame retardant, PCB, connector, plastic shell

6. Examples of polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE): flame retardant, PCB, connector, plastic shell

7. Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP)

8. Dibutyl phthalate (DBP)

9. Diisobutyl phthalate (DiBP)

10. Butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP)

The content of cadmium shall not exceed 0.01%

The above is the related content of "ROHS certification of electronic products" brought by the core test. I hope it can help you. We will bring more wonderful content in the later period. RoHS is a directive, not a regulation. RoHS has been extended to cover all electrical / electronic equipment, cables and spare parts and will meet the requirements by July 22, 2019 or earlier, depending on the product category.
